CHICK COMICS THEATER
What Do You Expect From a Town Called "Sodom"?odom"?

As you’ve seen in the previous episodes of CHICK COMICS THEATER, ol’ Jack Chick can come up with some pretty hilarious tracts equating Halloween, D&D, and Rock Music to puppet strings pulled by Satan himself. But Chick has his ugly side, too. Though religious attacks against gays are nothing new, I’m sure you’ll agree that the approach in the 1991 comic, is one of the more hateful examples of gay bashing since his 1984 tract, GOD HATES THE SWISHY. Well, kick up your high heels, download your favorite Klaus Nomi songs from Napster, and get ready to visit DOOM TOWN!

“12% of kids are going to grow up gay?” Damn, that’s going to do wonders for the sale of N’SYNC CDs. I’ve never been to a gay rally (except for the Republican Convention), but you’d think that children aren’t high on their list of agenda items to talk about (followed shortly by the “Lesbians Who Take The Pill” seminar). You gotta love the “Celebrate Sodomy” sign that’s right next to the “God is Love” one. Reminds me of a Prince double album. Right off the bat, things get ugly when Jack Chick unveils the gay plot to deliberately infect the nations blood supply with AIDS. Uh, Jack … don’t you think other gay people might end up with that blood, too? Yeah, that’d show ‘em!


It’s clear if you look in the lower right corner that Jack Chick uses The Village People to figure out what gay men look like. And that camera crew is fearing for their lives as those gay protesters who are “so filled with hate they’ll tear us to pieces!”, as if they’re some sort of blood thirsty pack of homosexual zombies! If you look carefully you’ll see that they’re not angry, but just miffed at the crew’s lack of ability to accessorize. And what an eerie resemblance that the “Straight Hero” of the story has to John Waters…


Come on now, Lot. How could you move to a town called “Sodom” and not think there’d be deviant activity there? That’s like driving into a city like “Fistville”, “Rimjobissippi”, or “Analprobeville” and then being surprised when the pink welcome wagon drives up. RUN LOT RUN!


Call me crazy, but that whisker covered broad is a dead ringer for Bea Arthur! And check out that dude chasing the little boy in the background. If this was a town of nothing but gay men, where do those kids come from, anyway?


A rare biblical sighting of Bigfoot!


How come nobody from Sodom ever wanted to rape Lot? Perhaps the source of his anguish was being left out of all the action. I mean, he’s no angel, but he looks sharp enough. Wonder why they never gave him a shot?


Hey, look who’s banging on the door…it’s HE-MAN! Orko must be too tired out from their last tryst. Boy that Lot’s a real Saint, eh? Doesn’t want the angels to get raped, so he offers up his virgin daughters instead. Obviously his daughters are virgins ‘cause their just plain ugly cause the crowd’s not even tempted. I love that caption, “The swearing clawing perverts lunged at him.” Makes you wonder what kind of wet dreams Jack Chick had as a boy.


So now you have a bunch of blind gay men roaming the streets. Well, at least the uglier gay men might have a chance for some action now.


Nice Hestonesque Moses there. Little do most biblical scholars know that God didn’t destroy Sodom because of its rampant homosexuality, but he merely wanted to reduce the future genetic pool of as many Judy Garland impersonators as possible. Notice God doesn’t seem to get angry about lesbians, though. That means he’s either a big WNBA fan, or is secretly Howard Stern.


“The good news is God Loves homosexuals”. Yeah, he’s all past that burning them to a crisp stage. That’s so Old Testament, you know. I love the suave look in our hero’s eyes when he say, “…because I really love homosexuals.” Apparently the original version said, “I really really really love homosexuals, if you get my drift.”, but Jack Chick thought it was coming on too strong.

Well, there you have it. I find it curious that someone who is so against homosexuality, can draw a comic completely devoid of women, and make it chock full of some of the most sweaty man studs that have ever walked the face of the earth!

So what are you doing wasting time reading this? Go gather up as much clean blood as you can before it’s too late!
