REEFER MADNESS IN 2000AD!

SEE HIP YOUNG RAVERS SUCCUMB TO THE LURE OF THE EVIL WEED!

WATCH THEM TURN INTO MIXED-UP FLESH-HUNGRY ZOMBIE CANNIBAL HOPHEADS WITH A LUST FOR BLOOD!

RECOIL IN HORROR AS THE DOPE-FIEND PLAGUE SPREADS ACROSS THE COUNTRY!

A stunning new one-off 2000AD comic strip reveals the true horror of dope-smoking, the stuff that all those beardy flower-wearing Jerry Garcia look-alikes don’t mention. Yes, it’s TRUE (it must be, because we say so), even just one spliff can turn you into a crazed zombie cannibal with a deadly case of the munchies!

Realised in full Techni-ghoulour by the pen of rabid caged art-fiend Frazer Irving, from a script dragged from the bloodstained claws of the beast they call Gordon Rennie (but only in hushed whispers), ‘Reefer Madness’ depicts in lurid detail the fate awaiting the nation’s youth, should they be tempted, just the once, by the deadly weed…

Maybe all those old public information films were right after all…

Reefer Madness’ appears in Prog 1263 of 2000AD, the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic, which hits the streets on 10 October. 1263 is a re-launch issue, featuring all new storylines, so it is a great point for new readers to start picking up the magazine.
