Menthol enhances the effects of ni****ne on the brain and can make to***co products even more addictive. In recent years, to***co companies also have increased the amount of ni****ne in some menthol ci******es. The menthol in ci******es can make it more challenging to quit smoking.

Happy National Superhero Day!
In 2001, Marvel banned heroes from smoking in their non-MAX comics (basically all of their main comic book series). Joe Quesada discussed the reasoning to the New York Post:
Quesada went on to say that the "main culprit" was Wolverine, the cigar-chomping star of the company's best-selling X-Men titles, which were turned into a hit movie last year.
"[Wolverine] is a role model for some kids and he shouldn't be smoking," Quesada said. "Besides, the healing factor would keep him from getting addicted to ni****ne anyway, so it doesn't even make sense for him to smoke."
The Post article went on to report that the no-smoking ban will also target Wolverine's fellow X-Man Gambit, as well as two of Marvel's oldest characters - Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing.
The no-smoking decision was a personal one for Quesada, a non-smoker who lost his grandfather to smoking-related emphysema and saw his father suffer a collapsed lung from smoking last year and still have problems quitting.
"It's a nasty habit that's affected my life in a tragic way," Quesada said.
