WWW.Chickcomics.com Killer Comics Chick tracts can be hazardous to your health... especially if you happen to be a character in the tract and unwisely ignore the Gospel. If that's the case, you usually die and fry! Death is probably the most common event seen in Chick tracts, next to falling on the floor and reciting The Sinner's Prayer with a tear drop of sincerity. It's kinda ironic that to promote everlasting life, Chick really piles on the death. Maybe he's just giving the public what it wants (or needs). Here's a list of tracts where characters wind up dead within 21 pages of comics. If you spot of anymore, alert us.
Note: This list does not include the numerous times Jesus is shown getting crucified on the cross. If you include that death scene, then practically ALL the tracts have it!
