chick tracts
i feel kind of weird having these evangelical comic book tracts in the store- for one, they are supposed to be free and i sell them, but much more importantly, they communicate ideas about how the world is organized that i not only disagree with, but find objectionable. but… they do it in a fun way, and they are little curiousities, and it is interesting and educational to see the power of a good package, and to be aware of someone trying to push your buttons. additionally i really like when there is a series of things that all have the same graphic design, like cliff notes, or man is the bastard records, and chick tracts not only share the same look, but the look is weird. also i like when the devil goes “haw haw haw!”. hi there.
