I've just been looking through the Jack tracts on his website and having a great time. It's a unique style all of his own. What really tickled me is many of the comic books are completely redrawn to appeal to black audiences. Obviously black people won't relate to people being thrown into hell fire unless they see black people depicted so. Even the angels are black in the black version. Jack Chick thought of everything. Yep, hell is for all races! yay! The devil looks cooler in the 'black people' version. What do you think?
And those one's weren't the parodies. I'm not joking.
The following tract takes place after a no good non-Christian guy name Bobby dies after admitting he had nothing to live for. This death is a great opportunity for Ol' Freddy Fanatic to preach to a young freckled face kid who is hanging around with an older smarmy arrogant non-Christian jerk.
Christ invaded our planet? I knew he was some sort of Alien. E.T. was actually based on the bible (remember the part where E.T. dies and rises again?) Jesus was always trying to phone home and light his finger up. It's a little known fact that Jesus had a pot belly too.
Apparently the approximate year 4370 is going to be a big year for remembering the first time you read a Chick tract comic book.
Luckily Christians revel in being persecuted, but still a cheap shot. Nasty atheist Bruce Wayne.
Warning: never discuss theology and drive or you're a "Bloody Idiot"
Chick is a bible expert. He knows there's no such place as purgatory. He's not falling for any of that purgatory crap. What nonsense.. purgatory... pffft. The giant white throne? Now that's for real!
Oh CRAP! Where the hell was the Scooby gang? Where was Fred and Daphne and the hippy guy when this villain was wearing masks in some amazing skkullduggery that even foiled those pesky darned kids. It was Lucifer all along. What a twist! I didn't see that one coming, and he's an ugly bugger too. I wonder why the devil has horns. Does he use them to defend himself?
Always remember, Jesus loves you more than you can possibly comprehend. But, if for any reason whatsoever you don't come to accept the correct version of Christianity while still breathing air, then that loving god-man is going to make you suffer the most horrific and demented fate ever conceived. There will be no chance of parole or escape. You will not even be allowed to die. You will be tormented and tortured forever.

good grief those comics are unbelievable
& not only did Jesus have a pot belly, he also appeared in my toy cupboard AND had a mad thing for Hershey's candy
Ya know I was going to mention The Reece's pieces but I didn't know if Australians would get it. I remember the novelisation had him following M&Ms to the bedroom. I think there was an interesting reason M&M pulled out. He did eat a Heshey bar later on didn't he. I'm actually talking to a girl wo works at a candy shop (Phil) on msn about m&ms atm.
We don't say candy in Australia though. I hate that word. I also hate 'soda-pop'... much prefering 'soft-drink'. I have a lot of hate in me.
you really should unleash that hate & preferably direct it at fundamentalist christianity, in some sort of publicly available format. but what?
& snopes.com has an article about the whole M&Ms/Hersheys/ET thing.
yes I put more effort into researching blog comments than I do my tertiary studies.
I guess the catholics messed it up for the rest of us eh...
Catholics make other christian beliefs look like a good Sunday out, but I'm not sure what you mean. Chick had a lot of disdain for Catholics and any other religions that weren't 'fundamentalist'.
Chick tracts are just terrifying - it scares me that someone can have such a warped view of the world.
What scares me is that millions of people actually believe those comics are real and possible scenarios.
Spreading the gospel of fear. The bible says to fear god but also says that Christians haven't been given a spirit of fear. Oh, those non fearing god fearers. I'm sure there are some greek words to sort that mess out.
"Fear Thy Lord God," the Bible says. Why? You plan on hurting me oh Lord?
2 Timothy 1:7 where it says, “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”
I just watched the DVD for "Hot Chicks". My friend got it at www.316now.com. It is hilarious. They have filmed the tracts to "Bewitched?", "La Princessetta", "Doom Town", "Wounded Children"!!!!, "Titanic" "Cleo" and "Party Girl!" It is so good and so funny if you are a Chick fan or hate him (I am a little of both!)
I hadn't had one of Chick's alien bulletins in my hands since I was a kid, so the thing that I noticed was the covers were made of different paper than back in the old days, making them slightly harder to rip in half and toss at the feet of the person passing them out.
There was one Jack Chick Tract that showed how Satan looked like Larry Storch guest starring on"Three's Company".
He had on a sport coat and a turtleneck sweater.
Looked like he was about to hit up on Chrissy and Janet at the Regal Beagle!!
