Creator's statement: "No One Takes Cannabis Seriously. "I began Legalization Nation in late 2020 after spending a year in the Pennsylvania Medical Cannabis Program. The problems with the market were myriad and obvious but there is very little coverage of this in mainstream or cannabis media. There's not a big appetite for critical, real world reporting from the grower/patient/consumer perspective. The media is focused on tax money, profits and celebrity brands. "Legalization Nation focuses on the corruption and hypocrisy in our state cannabis legalization programs. The strip acts as a voice for people who care about cannabis but have little recourse to fix this sinking ship. "This book collects the first 3 years of reporting on the cannabis landscape. Legalization Nation runs weekly and is influential on the attitudes in the cannabis space." This is a full color, hardcover collection of the first 156 weekly Legalization Nation comic strips or 3 full years of coverage.  Written and illustrated by Brian Box Brown Published by Rosie the Elephant 8.75" x 6.25" Hardcover, 162 pages, full color
