Back from the Dead?

Jack T. Chick’s infamous 1982 tract from Chick Publications, Back from the Dead? is a single-issue comic that argues for the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. Illustrated by Chick himself, this pamphlet-style publication is a classic example of his distinctive, confrontational evangelical style, using stark black-and-white art to present a literal, faith-based rebuttal to skeptical theories. It remains a notable artifact of Chick’s long-running, controversial ministry in the world of religious comics.
