chick christian comix
by Matt Webster (mza@disinfo.net) - July 26, 2001
Over the past thirty years, Jack Chick has produced hundreds of his miniature graphic novellas, all of which seem to hammer home but one basic idea: reject fornication, substance abuse, the Pope, and rock music or you will go straight to hell.

And Hell is a very real place to Mr. Chick.

He sees Demons lurking around every corner, and this special brand of paranoia and literal-mindedness endows his work with its sick charm and has granted him status as a pop culture icon among some of the very people that he probably despises.

This is the absolute zenith of contemporary religious kitsch!

Chick Publications
The official Web site, and boy are they proud of themselves ("8 reasons nobody can resist Chick cartoon tracts!"). Place your orders here!

Jack T. Chick's Fairy Tales
When I was eleven I was introduced to my first Chick tract, This Was Your Life. Chick tracts are little comic books, designed to help win souls for Christ. They are so incendiary and hateful that most Christian bookstores won't carry them.

Inside Satan's Boombox, Yo!
Mr. Chick bravely tackles the behind the scenes look of how Satan gets to the world through the demonic power of Rock Music. A classic 1989 Jack Chick tract that proves why Satan has all the good tunes.

The Wonderful World of Chick
Andrew Hultkrans asks: "Did you know that Christmas is actually a Satanic holiday based on Baal worship from ancient Babylon? That Halloween is a Druidic ritual of human sacrifice . . .to Satan? That the Pope is the Antichrist?" Reads like a Masters thesis on Jack Chick. Highly recommended reading!

Are Roman Catholics Christians?
Jack Chick on the Vatican mega-conspiracy. I wonder if the influence of Chick Christian Comics on the militia movement can be measured?

Jack T. Chick Speaks(?)
Could it really be him?

Buddha: The Jack Chick Archive
Huh?

Haw Haw Haw
This Suck meditation/rant (December 18, 1995) is an insanely funny story about Jack Chick.

The Jack T. Chick Parody Archive
He's back! Our hero here at Disinformation, Psycho Dave has decided to continue his battle against the dark forces of Jack T. Chick and his slobbering minions! The Jack T. Chick Parody Archive is born again!

What Do You Expect in a Town Called Sodom?
Jack Chick as repressed Queer icon? "I find it curious that someone who is so against homosexuality, can draw a comic completely devoid of women, and make it chock full of some of the most sweaty man studs that have ever walked the face of the earth!"

Saturnalia
Clever Chick parody in which an elderly Bible thumper has sex with a humongously endowed UR-demon. It's a Christmas story!

Prick Publication
Hilarious parody of you-know-who's Web site.

The Official Unofficial Museum Of Jack T. Chick
This excellent Web site proclaims itself as: "News, reviews, audience stories of Chick! Putting the fun back into fundamentalism!"

Religion's Role
This speech (March 1996), by Dr. James M. Dunn, links the popularity of Chick comics with the Religious Right's emergence during the Reagan administration. Good background information.

Don't Be Fooled by Jack T. Chick Tracts
The purpose of this page is to 'intercept' those who may be looking to Jack T. Chick tracts to provide them with truthful information on Catholicism. In Jack Chick's world, Satan and the Pope are one!

Re-Versed Christian Lyrics
Contemporary Christian kitsch: re-versed lyrics to rock, country and blues songs with a messianic theme. Make your Christian friends cringe!

Ten Theses on Jack Chick
Not as ludicrous as it may sound, these people illuminate the major themes featured in the Chick oeuvre.

Dial The Truth Ministries
A Chick rip-off, and their online tracts are text only, but I still like them.

Jack T. Chick Obituary
Hilarious fake Jack Chick obituary.
