VICE Summer 2026 Vol.30 #1

The Self Destruction Issue

“Self-destruction has killed some of my best friends. It has also given me the greatest moments of my life and could’ve been the theme of every issue of VICE since its inception. Sometimes you just have to let bygones be bygones and give a set of catastrophically harmful behavioral patterns their dues.” KEVIN LEE KHARAS, Editor In Chief

“I have channeled many decades of malignant energy caused by poor decision-making into this one unique publication. I hope that you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed ruining everything good that ever happened to me.” BEN DITTO, Global Editorial Director

* 132 pages of glorious metallic and fluorescent ink
* Wild stories of chicanery from across the world
