Jack Chick (1924-2016)
The most notable present day anti-Catholic cartoonist was Jack T. Chick, who published his first comic in 1961. He hoped to convert his readers to a radical form of apocalyptic evangelism. Jack's company, Chick Publications, has been listed as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Chick Tracts
Jack Chick's short pocket-sized cartoon tracts, called Chicklets, were designed to be passed on to others. These cartoons cover a wide range of topics, from basic Gospel stories to the dangers of Catholicism and Islam. The anti-Catholic tracts often framed the pope as the anti-Christ, and attacked beliefs from devotion to Mary, to the celebration of the Eucharist.
