Support NeoGAF

[Uncle]

I've been handed these at music fests. But then they wouldn't give me more, if I went and asked them for myself. In hindsight, I think the people on that Jesus bus were actually trolls.

I know I should be doing something more productive, but

Found here. This is the history I've never been told.

I love how he calls Islam moon worship when Christianity is basically sun worship.
Also, lol at Catholics not being Christian. It's easier to argue that only Catholics are Christian.

 

[Tertullian]

I've always wanted a hard copy of Dark Dungeons. Maybe someday I'll find myself in a place that actually stocks Chick Tracks...

God's Cartoonist - The Comic Crusade Of Jack Chick

an earlier NeoGAF thread about Jack Chick embracing that new fangled "man-ga" look is pretty fantastic.

Oh, wow. Thanks for that.

 

[Tribes of Trusty]

That's the fastest wish-fullfilling I've ever seen.

 

[AlexMogil]

When people go evil in a Chick tract, they go full throttle.

 

[Grimm Fandango]

Thank goodness I wasn't the only one who immediately thought of this.

 

[Squirrel Killer]

I like how in every other tract the devil is never shown as a human except in this one where he's a black guy.

... and this one where he's a fat, balding white guy in a top hat.

 

[Featheredkitten]

I'm loving all the examples posted in the thread. These are hilarious in their horribleness. I do find it funny that either people are straight out evil and want to kill Christians, or utterly clueless about jesus: "God? Jesus? Who are these people?"

 

[Raydeen]

Why is this real?!

Fuck.

I just can't believe a ballin' gangster shooting up a passing car and shouting "GOTCHA!" like a 11 year old English kid playing conkers.

I love these things. Used to find them in EGM.

Really? When did EGM publish some of these? I was reading that mag from '98 to '04 or so, never came across them then (to my memory).

 

[CrazedProfessional]

I made a shirt of that MOON GOD? panel that I wear around the house. It will never stop being funny.

THE HOLY QURAN SAYS I COULD KILL YOU FOR THAT!

 

[Ace Harding]

Seeing as there are apparently people that collect these, are any of them worth anything?

 

[Wanace]

I like how every Chick tract basically says that if you sell your soul to the devil you'll have a decade or more of awesome living before you're forced into a hospital bed where you can reclaim your soul anyway.

 

[Roland1979]

Those comics have the ugliest artstyle ever.

If you're going to push religion, at least make it aesthetically pleasing like this.

Lol dino's in Noah's time?
For black and white comics some of them sure are colorful.

"Stinking straight!"

I'm going to start yelling this at people on the street.

I'd advise against it, because someone might take that the wrong way.

 

[shakin_haitian]

I was in a Southern Baptist church growing up and we had Chick tracts in the church library.

People wonder why I'm an atheist now.

 

[Count Dookkake]

Really? When did EGM publish some of these? I was reading that mag from '98 to '04 or so, never came across them then (to my memory).

Never.

Religious perverts sneak the booklets into stuff that kids actually want to read.

 

[ElectricBlue187]

I remember seeing these at the YMCA when i was 8 and finding them absolutely hilarious

 

[Hilbert]

Seeing as there are apparently people that collect these, are any of them worth anything?

some of the out of print ones are worth quite a bit. There is one about how accepting Jesus can wash away all sins, including sexually abusing your daughter! That one is worth hundreds if you can find it.

edit:
here it is. If anyone finds a copy of it PM me. I would live an opportunity to buy it.

I remember a Crisis Center I went to had these prominently displayed, they were the only literature available to read apart from the actual Bible.

So, yeah, this is the stuff people on drugs and thinking about killing themselves have the pleasure of reading.

 

[Fimbulvetr]

That's the fastest wish-fullfilling I've ever seen.

"Don't start preaching!"

 

[GungHo]

I'm surprised they've gotten away with the Camel's in the Tent for so long, particularly since in has several depictions of Muhammad.

 

[TerminalDogma]

Every few months I'll find one of these when coming into work. I always read them, always laugh, sometimes attempt to keep them around to show someone else but ultimately throw them in the trash. Never had someone hand one to me though. Also I think I remember getting them on Halloween sometimes as a very young kid, but pretty sure they were thrown out right away.
