STORY TITLE: "Reefer Madness"
STORY PLOT: This episode of the "Federal Men" (by Siegel and Schuster, the creators of Superman) has Ace G-Man Steve Carson tracking down a school janitor who's selling Marihuana to innocent high school kids. The case begins after a group of youngsters rob and kill a gas station attendant and then drive off weaving haphazardly and hit an innocent pedestrian - all under the influence of Marihuana (the weed of madness). This leads Steve Carson to a high school where he matches wits with a dope-peddling janitor. Great unforgettable story lines such as: "Marihuana the drug that causes the smoker to lose all moral restraint-then this case comes under federal jurisdiction!" Must reading for all reefer madness fans.

ALL TRUE ROMANCE #10
DATE: March 1953
STORY TITLE: "Gang Girl"
STORY PLOT: - This is NOT, repeat, NOT a reefer madness story. It is however, a good example of how an Internet auctioneer can drum up business. Despite the sales description: "Classic headlights cover, hypo panel, marijuana + drug use panels in 'Gang Girl': "Enjoying yourself, baby? Here take a drag on this! It'll pep you up! It's got a kick like nothing else! Ha, ha, ha." - But other than that one panel -- nothing -- no actual mention of medical marihuana.
CHARACTURES: - Generic charactures, girl, boy etc.

ALL TRUE ROMANCE #14 [SEE MORE]
DATE: Nov. 1953
STORY TITLE: "Dread Past"
STORY PLOT: Unless your into girl romance etc., the story is not worth reading. Something about a nurse who goes wrong and messes up during an operation. Anyway, the word Marihuana only comes up once, as those words like weed, tea etc. Again, not worth reading.
CHARACTURES: - Generic charactures, Nurse, Doctors etc.
FOOTNOTES: [1]- Not recommend for reading
