Comic Description:

Panel 1:

• A scientist, wearing a lab coat, is excitedly gesturing with one hand raised and a big smile. The background includes laboratory equipment, like a microscope and test tubes.
• The text in a speech bubble above the scientist reads: "LOOK! LOOK! I FOUND A DIRECT CORRELATION!"
• A woman, with brown hair and wearing a red shirt, looks back at the scientist with a questioning expression. Her speech bubble reads: "WITH WHAT?!"

Panel 2:

• Below the first panel is a graph titled “Times Yelling 'Direct Correlation'”.
• The horizontal axis is labeled "Questions Asked About It."
• The vertical axis is labeled "Times Yelling 'Direct Correlation' ".
• The graph shows a straight line rising diagonally, illustrating a positive correlation.

Overall Themes: The comic humorously illustrates the idea that the more someone yells about finding a direct correlation, the more questions they receive about it.
