I‘m feeling a bit poorly today, so in lieu of an actual post, here’s an old comic I found on a blog called Grottu. I’m pretty sure this is what our old friend NWOslave sees when he looks at the world.
Slightly more on topic, here’s a frame from an old romance comic; you can find a discussion of the somewhat, er, problematic story it’s from on Sequential Crush.
That was a response to your first post. Didn’t even notice the double dose.
I’m pretty sure the best one is Dark Dungeons. It’s all about how Dungeons and Dragons will turn you into a warlock and ruin your life. Unless Jesus. Obviously.
The D&D one IS funny as shit…and then, there are just some seriously fucked up ones.
@Kim: Same one! Ninja’ed.
Because Jesus. ALWAYS Because Jesus. Because Jack Chick could never come up with any other ending.
Is it just me, or were they trying to make the preacher in that one look like Tom Selleck? 😛
Yikes! You’re right…poor Tom Selleck. What a horrible thing to do to someone. 🙁
I think my favorite is the one about demons making people gay… where the demon talks a gay man out of suicide and tries to talk him into protecting his lover from getting beaten.
Also being gay is caused by finding your dad’s (apparently straight) porn stash.

The Last Generation is also quite entertaining.
Okayy.. So I guess Heros Unlimited made me a mutant with the ability to manipulate/ grow plants at a phenomenal rate, watch my mutant polar bear friend burst into flames despite the asbestos tux and see in the full spectrum of light without me realizing it. Wish someone had clued me into this before!
Excuse me while I regrow the Amazon forest (and help the trees develope armour) and reclaim the Sahara desert.
When the D&D tract got to the part about dungeons of bondage I thought it was about to get interesting. Bummed out now! Although the bit about symbols of the occult like rock music almost made up for it.
This is probably the most melodramatic of them all. Also, racism.

I’ve collected Chick tracts for years (I used to study religion as a hobby, now it’s my job). They are endlessly amusing to me.
WordSpinner: I did like that one. Who knew that Satan was such a great wingman? 😀
I’m going to be hearing TINY SHOES, TINY SHOES now.
But no, wait, I hear Tim Brooke-Taylor doing Shiny Shoes instead! Saved!
A lot of the tracts are amusing in their own sick, twisted ways. The one I loathed the most was “Lisa”. Someone read that on YouTube, and I nearly vomited.
I now want a “Satan is my wingman” t-shirt or bumper sticker. Hey, if they have “Jesus is my co-pilot”…
I would totally get a shirt with that saying 😀 Hell, how about a coffee mug while we’re at it?
[Did I tell this story already? Well, I’m old, and we like to repeat our stories so here goes.] A friend and I used to make up fake Chick tracts, and whenever we saw the real ones we would substitute a few of our fakes. They looked totally real, until the very end panels. Good times, good times.
Let’s hold a Chick Tract parody contest. 🙂
Goodies! Goody goody yum yum!
Here’s my favorite. For all my fellow cradle Catholics, I give you “The Death Cookie”:

Apparently some gigantic
douchebagsChristians will leave these in restaurants in lieu of tips. Having worked in the food industry myself, I cannot think of a better way to convert your wait-person to Satanism.You’re up against some stiff competition.
(No, that isn’t mine, I only wish. Just proving that Jack Chick mockery is already a well-established sport)
I should have been a bit more specific. I meant one for the Manboozers 🙂
