We have…a pastor with cancer caused by stress (is that even possible?), the devil wearing reading glasses and a bit of fire about the US being destroyed before the end. ---

Actually, we did this one a while back. I remember the comments about the raptured hostage. ---

Awww. The little demon guy in the 9th, 10th and following sets of panels is pretty cute, actually! And the devil-in-reading-glasses reminds me of Stringer Bell from the Wire, FSR. (Of course, Stringer didn’t have horns, but other than that…) ---

Poor Jack. He’s probably on top of the world seeing all those hits on his site every month. He’s probably thinking he’s converting hundreds of people and gaining tons of Heaven brownie points. But, it’s just us - critiquing the art and sentence structure. I almost feel bad for him. Almost. Although, not quite bad enough to offer him a place in our custom SDMB handbasket to hell 😉 ---

Question I’ve Been Meaning to Ask: Are there any comics out there which are Anti-Chick, playing it straight until the denouement where everything the Christian Mouthpiece has been saying during the entire strip is shown to be totally false? ---

[/QUOTE] Maybe, but something tells me they’d be less funny as intentional pieces than the unintentional funniness of the Chick Tract. ---

I can’t be the first person to pick up on this, but does anyone else think that those devils look . . . well, Jewish? I mean _really_ Jewish? As in Jack couldn’t have made them more Jewish if he drew them luring people into hell with IRA’s and steaming bowls of matzo ball soup? And every single one of those sweating civilians should turn around and sue whatever plastic surgeon gave them those chins. And yeah, that little demon was cute in a retarded fraggle sort of way. ---

[/QUOTE] Yes, but it’s probably unintentional - most of these tract-writers have a big hard-on for Israel because it’s God’s Chosen Country and would defend Israel’s actions as God’s Hand even if Israel started nuking starving children. I really doubt they’d take a serious swipe a Jews.
