Trivia
Author and publisher of hundreds of Christian religious tracts
Served in the U.S. Marines during WW2.
According to reports, his publishing company, Chick Publications, has produced over 400,000,000 religious comic book tracts in over 70 languages.
Before becoming an Evangelical writer, artist and publisher, he worked as a technical illustrator for AstroScience Inc., a defense contractor in Los Angeles, California.
He is something of a recluse, and avoids publicity for himself. One man who has met him in person, Christian film director Dwayne Walker, described him as "a little bald man who looks exactly like Slim Pickens's character in Dr. Strangelove."
His "fire and brimstone" style of evangelism, combined with his "EC Horror Comics" artwork, has been the source of much parody in the independent press and Punk Rock community.
