Jack Chick is best known
for making charming little cartoony pamphlets about how you're going to
Hell, which people then leave in phone booths for poor lost
souls to read and -- if they're the sort of people who base
major spiritual decisions on what little cartoon people tell them --
convert to Jack Chick's brand of Christianity, which is to
say the sort of Christianity that believes that the Pope will
soon require you to get a tattoo on your forehead.
Less popular, but no less compelling on a theological level,
are the "Crusaders" comics. These are full-size, full-color comics
about Timothy Emerson Clark (former Green Beret) and James Carter
(former urban stereotype), two buddies who travel the world evangelizing
to the sort of people who make major spiritual decisions based on
what guys in really tight shirts tell them. These comics are
definitely the best value in paranoid religious conspiracy graphic literature
with homoerotic overtones available on the market today.
