I have seen other New Tracts announced and trounced on this board so here’s Jack’s latest.
Scream is nothing new but I have to wonder how many more will end with a character in a hospital bed with a bandage on their head.
I’m not sure if his poignent ode to 9/11 Who Cares was discussed last month as I can’t find it in my imperfect search. But I think both need a bashing. And yes there is another bandaged head hospital scene.
:smack: Why are all the people Bob (John Waters) meets so completely ignorent of the obvious facts that even your average atheistic/non christian brain dead baboon is aware of (much less your average human being)?
Let’s all tell the fireman who tried to save someone’s life that he’s going to hell. And let’s all do that without provocation!
Sheesh, we weren’t even led to the fact that the poor fireman was already living a bad life. No build up. The bad guy that lived gets away and the good fireman gets the super mega guilt trip while he’s dying of burn wounds. Great going, Bob! I wish Jack would do a “Bob Dies And Goes To Hell For Being A Sanctimonious Ass”.

The squirrels in the 6th panel from the end.
Bob smirking in panels 20 and 32.
The cheap arson. $2,000 to torch a building? He must’ve been desperate.
Has anyone else noticed that Creepy-ass-Bob never smiles? If I were as sure and smug of my salvation as he pretends to be, I’d be grinning from ear to ear!
And stupid. He paid $2000 for two dopes to spread gasoline around and set it on fire. Yeah the insurance people will pay out when it is so obviously arson. Of course the investigators would miss the $2000 withdrawl from his account… Mind you, they might seeing as it is such a low price paid to such obvious amatures.
And having two guys so dumb that one would likely set himself on fire leaving a body… Dang he’s a genius.
Bob Williams = John Waters. It’s all starting to make sense. At least now I can enjoy Chick tracts on a whole new level.
I think *DeadlyAccurate summed it up well. It made no sense (Jack’s own bizarre brand of “sense”) to give the poor burned fireman a ration of shit without an appropriate setup. I’m afraid Jack is just going through the motions and not putting his heart into his work.
I have seen many creepy images of ol Bob there, but that last panel of that comic was something outta my worst nightmares. Ol’ Bob looks POSSESSED BY EEEEEEVUUUUL in that last frame.
The fireman deserved to burn in hell because he belongs to the same fag-loving profession as those stupid people who died trying to save the sinners in the whore-mongering, sodomite-pandering World Trade Center.
Oh wait, that’s Fred Phelps. I’m sorry, I’m getting my hate-filled bigots confused.
This just reminded me of a great dream that I had last night and now remember only vaguely:
A new Chick tract was out, and it featured about half-a-dozen prominent celebrities (including Ben Affleck) participating in a Satanic Ritual Abuse Cult. I was gleefully Googling around, looking for evidence of credulous folks that accepted it as gospel, and anticipating the financial ruin of Chick Enterprises at the hands of high-priced libel lawyers in sharkskin suits.
After that, this one was a bit a of a let-down.
About Scream– I really love Bob. His mixed-messages and stereotypical “villain” mustache make me suspect that Chick is a closet Manichean-- or, even better, the most sublime Subgenius Epopt ever, extracting funds from the pinkest of the fundies, and producing an unprecedented volume of quality bulldada.
“everything you’ve ever thought, said or did” ??
Jack Chick, your hold on the english language is slipping…
nice one Bob, the guy is in a burn’s ward, suffering from PTSD from the trauma of being trapped in a burning warehouse, and you decide to save his soul by launching into how fiery hell is?!
you REALLY know how to win people over with logical thought and gentle persuasion…oh wait, no, you don’t. you bully, terrify and co-erce them.
So obviously not knowing about christianity is an excuse. And clearly Chick assumes that most people don’t know anything about christianity before Bob (or Chick himself) tells them. And he knows that not everybody converts after being told.
That means that his mission is not to help people get into heaven, where they would end up without his “help” anyway, but to condem them to hell. Thank you so much, Jack Chick!
