God's Cartoonist: The Comic Crusade of Jack Chick--Documentary
This is an itneresting video. I ordered it and got it in the mail this week. It's an interesting analysis of the source of all those goofy tracts about a faceless god sending people to Hell for no particular reason.
The people who put this out are even goofier than I imagined, and I imagined them to be pretty goofy.

Wikipedia:
Chick Publications has released over twenty "Chick comics" since its founding in 1970. The first 11 form the Crusader comics series, which follows the stories of two fundamentalist Christians and addresses topics such as the occult, Bible prophecy and the theory of evolution.[15] Six comics present the testimony of anti-Catholic activist Alberto Rivera, who claimed that, as a Jesuit priest, he had become privy to many secrets about the Roman Catholic Church. Among Rivera's claims, the Catholic Church created Islam (the "Vatican Islam conspiracy"
and masterminded the 1917 Russian Revolution, the Holocaust and started World War II.[16] There are also three independent comics, one telling stories from the King James Version of the Bible, one relaying the claims of Charles Chiniquy regarding the Catholic Church, and one detailing Chick's opinions on Joseph Smith and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.[15]
Chick Publications also distributes Chick's most notable creations, "Chick tracts", small comic tracts with religious messages. Over 200 have been published and most can be viewed in their entirety on the company's website. The most popular Chick tract, This Was Your Life, has been translated into more than 100 languages,[3] and many other tracts are available in widely spoken languages such as Arabic,[17] German,[18] Spanish,[19] and Tagalog.[20]
Chick's views are best documented in his tracts, which cover subjects such as abortion, homosexuality, non-Protestant religions, the occult, rock music, politics, popular culture, J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series and the theory of evolution, mostly in a negative light.[21] Chick believes many of the world's problems are deliberately caused by the Catholic Church. He credits the Catholic Church with founding Islam,[22] The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints,[23] and the Jehovah's Witnesses,[24] persecuting Jews and starting the Holocaust,[25][16] and founding and promoting Communism.[16]
