Main comic (one panel): An orange-haired man in a green shirt stands surrounded by thick green kudzu vines, brandishing a Tommy gun. He yells, 'DIE KUDZU! DIE! BEFORE THEY KICK ME OUT OF JAPAN I'M GONNA MAKE YOU FEEL WHAT WE FEEL!' A caption reads: 'Tired of fighting invasive species in his back yard, Steve decides to attack them in their homeland.' The joke: Steve, frustrated by kudzu (a plant invasive to the US but native to Japan), has traveled to Japan to wage war on it where it belongs. Votey (aftercomic): A close-up of Steve's face twisted in pain as a green kudzu vine wraps around and strangles his neck — the plant fighting back and winning.
