Another Beatles lyric, this time "Hello, Goodbye" written by Paul McCartney. The images are taken from many Chick Tracts. Chick sure likes to see people thrown in the eternal Lake of Fire.

Thank you, maledoro! I really have no idea when I do these things. I suspect humor should be a cooperative effort. I have nobody but myself to "bounce" my ideas off before posting the results. All I can do is see a theme, follow it, amd hope it works.
With these Beatles lyrics, the last bit seemed especially sad to me, with the guy (a "good Catholic," condemned for his Catholicism by Chick's hyper-Calvinist God) blubbering in panic at the end.

I've appropriated Chick artwork for my own propaganda needs. I've been making my own "cartoons" for my buddies' entertainment on the IMDb where I'd make fun of our resident trolls by putting them in some of the roles of the fanatics and other assorted weirdos.
I've made two so far, one was based on "Best Friend", and the other was from "Fairy Tales". The latter gets more points as it takes a swipe at Creationists when a priest compares some retconning trolls to them!
Keep the faith, brutha!

Great! I'd love to see your efforts. Have a link?
I've seen some wonderfully funny and effective Chick spoofs that I think are far better than my efforts. I'd rather be reading 'em than making 'em.

Hah, much better than the original, I'm sure.
I love how the angels just... toss the poor damned souls. It's like soul bowling. |

LOL! Soul bowling! Nice way to put it, Siberia. They probably make wagers on which angel can hit a demon.

Okay, here's a bit of back story. I am a member of the Internet Movie Database, a forum that has no moderation whatsoever. Lately, there had been a rash of trolls who would bait members and report the responses (no matter how diplomatic they are) as a violation.
Anyway more backstory. There are two groups of fans of the Alien films; the Alien Cognoscenti (to whom I belong), who take the time to study books and documentaries about the films; and the other group, the Alien Illiterati, who just go with what was shown onscreen and come up with all kinds of strange ideas about what they had seen.
The first story is about a lad who won't respect the words of the creators of the movies, but is willing to resort to tactics used by hack writers such as "retconning".
This next one showcases two more recent trolls (they do not belong to either group):

That's rich stuff, Mal! Excellent, and thanks!
Goes to show that the Power of Chick can be used for any purpose under the sun! I was a big Star Trek fan, back in the years between the end of the Original Series and the first movie. I can imagine using Chick Tracts for the arcane arguments we had then, too.
But you went further, actually educating people about the problem you guys were having at IMDb!

Educating everybody but the trolls. Again, thanks! I like to leave people with that warm, "The More You Know" feeling!
