Being curious to determine the mindset of the parts involved: Are there any comics from the POV of
marketing?
The profession-related comics I know are (all available online):
Dilbert (not sure, but comes over as marketing/corporate culture bashing from the engineering POV)
OK/Cancel (Usability. Poking fun at the industry/making statements from the usability POV)
Userfriendly (IT, internet, OpenSource. Often with self-irony. And often against marketing)
Do marketeers have their own community? Making fun of themselves and other departments? Something
called "The Three Marketeers! for example?
