Got it from a religious cringe instance, as how people of the 80s will live in the future… Mostly accurate except the shirt that still goes too hard.

Chic tracts. Serious propaganda aimed at convincing 80s children that they will be going to vividly imagined hell if they don’t accept Jesus as their lord and savior. I’m not ashamed to say my 12 year old self had a moment of doubt.
They’re a great source of meme materials. The D&D one is legendary.
I’m a fan of weirdly supportive Satan
Wow, no kidding about being supportive! I’m pretty impressed by the quality therapy provided here by the Prince of Darkness.
Something tells me the rest of the tract plotline doesn’t quite portray it that way.
He even looks concerned. Empathy for others, truly a foreign, evil concept for Fundamentalist Christians.
Hell yeah lol.
I also like how the gal is actually enjoying the date since he’s not trying to just immediately grope her boobs/proposition her xD
Based Satan, but it is super creepy that they think that what he’s saying is evil.
Why is that a video?
Skill issue on my end, I think I fixed it
Seems like a tough love type. Yeah I like him too.
Uh…what?
This one?
Boy he really did have to drive home the point that elfstar was learning the really real magic of realness .
Yes :)
Chick tracts are not chic.
Hey kept making those right up to his death a few years ago.
I remember reading them fondly as I took a shot in my churches background
This one is absolutely a shitpost drawn by Danny Bulanadi as indicated by the artist name on the desk in the bottom panel.
So I did more googling and it’s apparently from an abridged Bible called Truth For Youth, hence the book in the comic. After drawing comics in the 70s and 80s he went to Kingstone at some point. It’s a Baptist fundamentalist style comic publisher. Can’t say for sure if it was money or passion that drove that move.
