What you’re looking at
This appears to be a multi-panel satirical comic about fashion or clothing industry practices. The title suggests mockery of someone prominent in the clothing/textile business depicted as a "doodle" (a foolish person). The panels show various figures in what appear to be clothing shops or manufacturing settings, with signs visible referencing "THE BARBER" and other commercial establishments. Characters are drawn in exaggerated, caricatured style typical of Wasp magazine's satirical approach. Without clearer OCR of the specific text within panels and without knowing the exact publication date, I cannot definitively identify which clothing industry figure is being mocked or what specific scandal or business practice prompted the satire. The comic likely critiques fraudulent or exploitative practices in the clothing trade, a common Wasp target.
