The newest Chick tract, Men of Peace?, offers little to surprise anyone who's read any of his other tracts. I just have to say that I'm impressed by the way in which he manages to reinforce the whole "women are evil" theme from the creation myth in that Chick claims that Muhammad's wife convinced him to listen to a devil. Oh, not only that, but Chick manages to slip in the suggestion that Catholics are to blame for violence in Islam. Very subtle.
I'm very disappointed with the ending, though. I mean, the ugly, heathen intellectual isn't saved until the penultimate panel, and even that's just an afterthought: "So she did... and God saved her!" I should think a conversion would take at least two panels, with a nice pose of her praying while bathed in heavenly light, then standing up with a big smile.
