We're diving into the New Teen Titans anti-drug PSAs from the height of Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" crusade. These comics are just like the campaign: well-meaning, wildly over-the-top, and completely out of touch with the actual issue.

Today, we're taking a wild ride with Warrior Nun Areala vs Razor, a 90s comic that’s as over-the-top as the Bad Girl art movement itself. With gratuitous action, exaggerated characters, and the completely random bonus of a polybagged CD soundtrack, this is all about style over substance.
