Our sale celebrating the highest of holidays may be over, but we’ve still gathered a selection of the best comics to read while high and we encourage you to indulge (responsibly)—you can find some of our choicest weed-reads (and recommended cannabis pairings) below, but check out the full sale list here! It’s never to late to check out the best comics for stoners.
The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers: The Idiots Abroad and Other Follies by Gilbert Shelton and Paul Mavrides
You can’t go wrong with a classic! We suggest pairing this collection of the most iconic and enduring underground comix characters ever created and their cannabis-fueled adventures with Purple Haze, a sativa strain popularized by the Jimi Hendrix song of the same name. Groovy!
Megg & Mogg In Amsterdam (And Other Stories) by Simon Hanselmann
This classic Megg and Mogg adventure has everything: laughs! Thrills! Drugs! Freakouts! Amsterdam! For the experienced consumer, we suggest enjoying this collection with something uplifting like Gelato, an indica-sativa hybrid that promises feelings of euphoria and relaxation.
Mindviscosity by Matt Furie
Feel like getting weird with it? Pair Matt Furie’s unsettling collection of eerie and fantastical imaginary creatures with Amnesia Haze, a pleasant, citrusy sativa with a reputation for triggering psychedelic effects!
Cheech Wizard’s Book of Me by Vaughn Bodé
Speaking of psychedelic, have you pored over the Cheech Wizard omnibus yet? If you’re in the mood for creative inspiration, pair this trippy comic collection with popular cerebral sativa strain Sour Diesel!
Crashpad by Gary Panter
Crashpad is an homage both to Panter’s first trip to a head shop back in 1968 and the way it expanded his mind to the possibilities of psychedelic art and music, analog crafts and drug culture, and to underground comics creators such as Zap’s R. Crumb, Victor Moscoso, Robert Williams, and other icons of that era. Pair this mind-boggling modern classic with the aggressively-named (but actually very mellow) sativa-dominant hybrid strain AK-47 for a far-out adventure!
