The Beast

The Beast is a long-running Christian comic series from Chick Publications, first published in 1966 and still ongoing after a single issue. Created by Jack Chick, it presents a stark, apocalyptic vision of the end times, focusing on the rise of the Antichrist and the mark of the beast. The series is a foundational work of Chick's distinctive, controversial style of evangelical tract comics, known for its bold, confrontational storytelling and its impact on religious comic art.
