His views on Judaism are pretty weird - he's pro-Jew, believing they will all convert moments before the Rapture.

Where does he get his money from? My friend wrote to him asking for some tracts for a giggle, and got airmailed him a box of like a hundred to the UK (a country that 'Islam has brought to its knees', by the way) for free.

There's somebody who's drawn a lot of the latter-day Chick tracts whose style looks VERY much like Marshall Rogers', although I don't think it's him...

Fred Carter.

This is a widely held view among Christian nut-jobs, if by "pro-Jew" you mean "pro-Israel". I don't think Chick is pro-Jew in any real sense - there is one which explicitly states that non-Christian Jews are all DAMNED.

I'd like to try the long sideways, stapled at the short edge format sometime. I love the way that when you open a CT it's about five times as wide as it is tall.

DO these all end with "START WITH THE GOSPEL OF JOHN" or were those the Archie Xtian comics?

There's a 99% chance Jack Chick is totally evil, 1% chance he is the comic genius

"don't worry henry, jesus will forgive you for being a nonce, just like he forgave all those priests."

max arrrrrgh, Tuesday, 24 August 2010 18:34 (thirteen years ago) link

what's the % chance he's insane? everything i've read about him paints him as being a very savvy marketeer.
is there anyone carrying the torch for jack chick in webcomics?

Philip Nunez, Tuesday, 24 August 2010 18:50 (thirteen years ago) link

lol Chick's not very favorably inclined to Catholicism FYI

it's pretty clear he's totally bonkers from what few personal details have emerged

there was a guy in the 90s who did a comic-book length analysis of Jack Chick, went to his offices to meet him, etc. blanking on his name, having trouble googling it

glitter hands! glitter hands! razzle! dazzle! (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 24 August 2010 19:14 (thirteen years ago) link

kinda shocked there's no mention of the guy turning himself in to the cops at the end of that comic... just says soz and gets a do-over :/

max arrrrrgh, Tuesday, 24 August 2010 19:14 (thirteen years ago) link

my favorite exchange is when henry tells his wife that she just made the situation worse

re: jack chick analysis, was it Dan Raeburn?

it just seemed that the bonkers comics was a means to an end, and he himself is just regular xian bonkers.

Philip Nunez, Tuesday, 24 August 2010 19:21 (thirteen years ago) link

ah yes that's him. The Imp #2.

his chris ware book is amazing if that's the one i'm thinking about. you feel like you are absolved of any cosmic responsibility to be a cultural custodian of chris ware, because he's in good hands.

i find i have an abstract affection for the catholic-hating evangelicals, cos it seems like they're already in a lost world

but there's probably a hell of a lot of them still around.

I like the kid who introduces himself with "The kids call me slime because my parents are still married."

BIG HII'M aka the teendriver (crüt), Tuesday, 24 August 2010 22:47 (thirteen years ago) link

Implying that Chick thinks kids whose parents are divorced are godless sinners?

I agree. I think he's currently catering to the tastes of the people who read his comics as camp in the hope of saving a few souls among the way, and I'm bothered that everyone is taking his bait.

I like the idea of a Jack Chick videogame.

You would have to make loads of different choices, and at the end you would be sent to Hell by God.

"Jill I'm serious! Chick says that you can be a Christian missionary and still go to Hell, just because you didn't attempt to convert any of the people you helped."
