So there's two jokes that can come from this. That medic is investing in cigarettes to give his teammates to ensure they'll always need more medical care. OR that was just a spy there to see the engie naked and make off with the cash.
I think I know which I prefer.

I guess about half the team is going to get cancer, considering how many of them actively smoke cigarretes (although only the spy actively smokes on the battle field).

Also Medic doesn't have to be gay just because he doesn't stare at Engies boobs, he can just be a good doctor.

Jo, I'd change the logo on those cigarette boxes to something like "Maulboro". Just enough of a change that IP-hungry lawyers can't say anything.

People are complaining about seeing a modestly drawn woman from behind? His drawing skills are impeccable but not an attempt at photo realism, so why does it matter? She's having a physical, the nudity is complicit in the setting.
That being said, classic joke, kinda sick, but still funny.

Incorrect. It's easy to figure out that a doctor purchasing things that get people sick contrasts our expectations, and it's made evident that the guy in the lab coat is a doctor.

You guys realizes this is the "Gondar invests in gems and dust" but for TF2? Both jokes have the same impact, and yet, I can GUARANTEE people like this one better because people constantly complain about "MUH TF2 COMICS".
Just goes to show the people care more about appearence than the joke.

I think that its somewhat normal in Brazil for exams to be done in the nude. Had a doctor friend talk about a recent Brazilian immigrant who was there for her first exam. He walked in and all she was wearing was a smile. He asked her why she was like that and she said she thought it was normal

Hey Jo, it's grammatically better to say "I invest it back into my career". Took me a second to get it. ;)
The Joke: Medic gets paid, uses the money to invest it in his career - by buying cigarettes and giving them away, so people get cancer, assuring him of future employment.

...I think I get it. It was kinda hard though- it's not clear that a)"free" is what he's selling them for, not what they cost him, or b) that he's headed to the base to sell them to his team. Another panel with him dropping the crates off at a table with a "Free" sign might have been easier to get.

I would like to point out that Engie doesn't need to be naked. Medic uses his healing ray for everything, so an examination is completely superfluous (except for purely aesthetic appeal).
Also: what's in the box?

Very oddly drawn hand, there. It looks almost like a foot.
Meanwhile, I suppose this says something about Medic's interests, in that Engie is completely blase and Medic is pretty much ignoring her body other than in the professional sense.
