A man with reddish-blond hair in a green t-shirt holds a lit, smoking joint while pointing at his own mouth, glaring with mock determination, against a purple background. He declares, "I'M GONNA SMOKE YOU OUT OF EXISTENCE!" The caption reads: "Twice a day, Steve joins the war on drugs" — the joke being that Steve fights drugs by smoking them himself. In the votey aftercomic, a tired-looking black-and-white sketch of the same man (Steve) says, "I'VE WON THIS BATTLE, BUT THE WAR IS FAR FROM OVER," framing his ongoing drug habit as a never-ending personal campaign.
