Welcome to the glorious wreckage of a D.A.R.E. PSA gone wrong. This winter, Mad Cave Studios unleashes The Florida Hippopotamus Cocaine Massacre—a four-issue, synth-drenched action-comedy from writer Fred Kennedy, with art, colors, and letters by James Edward Clark, and a variant cover B by Italian comics superstar Mirka Andolfo.

Disco Hippo Wonderland is the number one amusement park in Flamingo City. But few realize its corpulent owner, Jans M’jor Discau, is about to release the most potent drug ever created: Coke45! Fortunately for humanity, Agent Clarke Nebraska is on the case! She’ll bring down Discau come heck or high water! That was the plan, until her undercover agent, Tico Senecoza, was captured! And before she can rescue him, Miquel—Tico’s sexy loose cannon of an older brother beats her to the punch, storming into the park with bullets flying. Discau panics, dumping the Coke45 into the hippo enclosure and letting them loose on the park, before fleeing into Wonderland’s tunnel network! Nebraska’s plans are totally off the rails, and things get worse when a marijuana smoke-fueled hurricane drowns the park in torrential rain! Now it’s up to Nebraska and Miquel to create an uncomfortable truce to bring Discau down before he escapes!

From the cocaine-splattered corridors of Flamingo City to the rain-soaked tunnels of Hippo-Disco Wonderland, The Florida Hippopotamus Cocaine Massacre is a fever dream of over-the-top violence, slapstick humor, and Reagan-era paranoia—where every explosion comes with a punchline, and every hippo deserves an Oscar!

Don’t miss your chance to witness the birth of the LASER DRUG FORCE, the government’s most unhinged anti-narcotics task force! The Florida Hippopotamus Cocaine Massacre #1 hits comic shops on February 18, 2026, with FOC on January 26, 2026.
