Please post if anybody finds something, thanks !!
Nearest I know of are these Chick parodies, which used to be on Rev J Huger'ssite (the home of the original Kissing Hank's Ass).
I'm sure there'll be tons of anti-Jack ones along in exttremely short order.

That would be "illegitimately", I think. He may have sincerely believed it, but it's not a legitimate belief for a whole cauldron of reasons.

Nothing will ever top Dark Dungeons for me. There's even a fantastic film adaptation that I highly recommend.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

That's okay; I'm frequently mistaken for being absent .

This one's epic, too, but I can't help but notice that he omitted the part where Lot's daughters proceed to get him drunk and hop on his dick.

So in Jack Chick's world, men who would look more at ease trying to sell your great aunt a used Ford Festiva are Christ's most fearsome advocates, turning gays and sinners back to the LORD (because apparently these dumbfucks need to capitalise LORD to make him seem big and scary, rawr) left and right.
What a fascinatingly twisted mind. I must acquire his brain...

Here's some of my personal favorites:
- Lisa, wherein a doctor decides the best thing to do when you're a doctor and are confronting a child molester who gave his five-year-old daughter herpes is to preach to him and not call the cops.
- Unloved, wherein Jack ramps up the angst on some pour soul's life, and, just before converting, tells the guy "this had better be good or I'll jump."
- Boo! Wherein we learn Halloween is Satan's birthday, except it's really not (yes, this ambiguity is in the tract itself) and Satan takes the form of a jack-o-lantern headed serial killer with a chainsaw.
- Still no Revival? Wherein it turns out Jack is apparently a good enough fan of Family Guy that he could draw Peter and Stewie 100% on model.
- Here Comes the Judge, wherein Jack somehow manages to create an insanely convoluted plot in the span of his standard 40-some panels and still find the time to shoehorn in his standard Jesus spiel.
- First Bite wherein a witch's coven spawns the Antichrist, who can apparently survive until his teenaged years without eating, and converts to Christianity due to an encounter with his first prospective victim.
- The Assignment, wherein angels and demons micromanage every aspect of a man's life in order for him to possibly accept Jesus before he dies, even one girl's hair care routine.
- Fairy Tales, wherein we find out about a serial killer's start of darkness, namely, being told there is no Santa Claus.
- The Missing Day, wherein we learn that, in Jack's alternate universe, the origins of Thanksgiving are hushed up.
- Wassup, wherein we meet the Grim Reaper (or, apparently his Black counterpart) and his catchphrase of "Wassup?" (or, as his white brother says, "Hi, There!")
- Where's Rabbi Waxman, a tract I picked up in person a couple years back. I still kep it on my nightstand, between the Dostoevsky and Salinger books.
And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Motherfucker will be missed.
