I find Chick crazy too but he wasn't an antisemite[edit]

In fact, many Christians accused him of being a Zionist. 2003:C3:3741:1600:2D51:F5F8:EB4C:D4B1 (talk) 21:52, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

From looking round the net it seems more like he was "anti everything he disliked" rather than specifically antisemite. Eeit: And, yes, you can find at least one instance of him being called a Zionist. (Warning! That site will damage your eyes!) Bob"Life is short and (insert adjective)" 13:24, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
I read the site and my eyes survived it. I do not agree with Mr. Stewart on everything, but at least he's got some balls. But whatever, we need to end this narrow minded thinking that there was just two sides, lefties and righties. I am purely independent. Not even the alignment system is open minded enough to describe this, even though I'd see myself as "true neutral" (you'd however say "neutral evil" or even "chaotic evil", but many I met have said "neutral good", dunno why lol). 2003:C3:3741:1600:28FF:9C33:7266:20FB (talk) 23:12, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
Ahhhhh, I love reading Chick tracts online when I'm bored... but srsly, I don't really get an antisemitic impression from his works. For all his lunacy, he seemed to be rather pro-Israel. Roman Sionis tends to be inactive during summer 18:55, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

Darkseid Is![edit]

Someone took a Chick Tract and made it a Darkseid Tract instead. See here.

DARKSEID DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOUR PETTY SINS Vee (talk) 23:10, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

That is an outstanding parody! Thank you for bringing this to our attention. —cosmikdebris talk stalk 23:19, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
Added it to the main page as well. The world needs to know! DARKSEID IS Vee (talk) 00:32, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

There's an error with the formatting[edit]

It's with references. Tried figuring it out but everything looks fine to me. Beyond my paygrade I suppose. Anyone else wanna take a look? Vee (talk) 23:19, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

Found it, some slob used the {{efn}} template with a closing </ref>. —cosmikdebris talk stalk 00:54, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Cover story (sticky)[edit]

I think this shoud be a gold i have removed a lot of the http links so if you think this shouldn't then what are the problems which disqualify ot from being gold. 123goaway (talk) 21:32, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

Some of the links are 404, and should be linked to an archive snapshot. Did you even check any of the references when you did a search-and-replace from http to https? You do realize that you could have broken some references when doing this. The point made in the comments for your "demote to gold" page refer to bare html links appearing in the references, and not that the references themselves use http:// instead of https://.
And please do try and communicate in proper English. —cosmikdebris talk stalk 22:43, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

Scans of the tract "Lisa"[edit]

Crew from Boolean Union here. As it's kind of our thing, we wanted you to know that we have high-resolution scans of some of the more notorious and "lost" tracts Chick Publications out, such as "Lisa" and "Wounded Children". You have links to the older, low quality scans at https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/File:Lisa.jpg and we would be willing to provide you with better replacements (https://boolean-union.com/dissections/boolunion/BU.CHICK.LISA.DISCT.html) if you are interested. However, we receive quite a bit of traffic from this website, and for that we are grateful. Let us know if there's anything else we can provide. — Unsigned, by: 71.121.205.243 / talk / contribs
