All these years and Chick has never gotten around to a trans tract. I feel left out 🙁
Boo, it’d probably be identical to his Sodom and Gomorrah-themed works anyway. That’s assuming he recognizes any distinction between transfolk and gay people in the first place.
Me, I wish he’d do more D&D or Catholicism=Satan tracts. I can’t even say “death cookie” with a straight face.
I want to see what outfits he’d put us in. It’s be hard to top the gay hippie couple in Doom Town, but Chick can do it, cause he’s Chick.
I must admit that I never came across the Catholic tract, and when I did a search on “death cookie” I nearly fell out of my seat. That’s some sick stuff.
Gomez Is Coming is my favorite:

“Tonight we’ll serve you a taco supreme…”
My first encounter with Chick tracts came right after my friend and I had lunch at Taco Bell.
Indeed, scared off Taco Bell. The Lord works in mysterious, transfigurative ways.
But… admit it, pumpkin-head … a tract named after oneself! Ah, the fame.
“I don’t want the cat as my sacrifice! I want Carrie!”
Run! Tis the devil himself!
Haw haw haw!
Racist as it is, at least the Gomez one has some sort of message to it (in Chick fashion), the “death cookie” is really quite psychotic.

Did you catch the subtle anti-Catholic tidbit?
He told me things the priest NEVER talked about!
Of course, this is the ultimate Chick Tract:

Had me going for a minute, Boo 😉
It amazes me how so many fundamental christians will take those Chick tracks as gospel. They are usually the same people who will claim Biblical scholars are satanic and evil and set to corrupt the Christian Scriptures. I mean, these Biblical scholars are men and women who are trained in several Biblical languages, have intensive study of the Holy Writ and other writings associated with it, men and women who are as prayerful as they are scholars, and they are ridiculed while Chick twists and distorts the true Gospel message and/or biblical message and the fundamentalist just fall in love with every tract.
I have the gay tract one. All I could think of when I read it was…What a disservice to God and to humanity to falsify information just to try to get one’s personal viewpoint across. What deceit!
Gee! Let me put on my surprised face! I’m surprised he didn’t do that earlier.
Jack T. Chick needs to take to heart Pope Leo XIII’s reminder that “God has no need of our lies.”
