Where did Jack get the idea for Chick Tracts?
Officially, Jack learned how the Communists Chinese brainwashed millions using comic books and copied their concept. But the actual size of Chick tracts is suspiciously similar to pornographic mini-comics that were popular during the 1950s. They were called “2 x 4″s (their size in inches). These small comics were cheap and easy to conceal in a pocket. Jack never pretends he was goody-2-shoes in his early days. By his own account, he was quite a hell raiser! Like many young men of that era, he probably saw and read some of these dirty comics. Ironic, huh? Who would have ever thought the Commies and the Pornographers would help create the very tracts that attack them both on a regular basis!
