Line 26:
* The ''Eagle'' was launched by an Anglican vicar who saw local children reading adult-oriented American horror comics, and wanted them to read more wholesome material. Fortunately, he made sure to focus on quality, and brought out a very popular and fondly remembered comic which gave us ''[[Dan Dare]]''.
** ''[[Dan Dare]]'' was originally created as a sort of military chaplain [[In Space]], but he was changed to a straightforward pilot to better appeal to children.
* Christian fundamentalist Jack Chick has spent decades writing "[[Chick Tracts]]" that laylaid out his ...[[Insane Troll Logic|''unique'']]... vision of fundamentalist Protestant Christianity. He has explicitly stated that they were inspired by Chinese manhua.
** The tract [http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0034/0034_01.asp "Angels"] actually ''denounces'' this trope. Its target? Christian rock music. ''All'' Rock 'n' Roll music is controlled by the Devil, and so-called "Christian" rock plays right into his hands. (Chick doesn't seem to have noticed the unintentional message that, at least in this case, the power of the Devil is stronger than the faith of true believers...)
