Natas Kaupus is about the closest I've heard of.

Which turned out to be made-up, 80s, moral-panic, nonsense, because his Lithuanian name happened to be Satan spelled backwards.

    Yeah i wonder why anyone would associate him with the devil. No clue at all.

    He had some nice board graphics.

    His original drawing for another deck the "Hanging Clansman" even made it to the Smithsonian collection. Perhaps there's a clue to who considered him to be anti-christian if there's any connection that way.

    Moral-panic was in '87, 101 started in '91.

    I'd say he was leaning into the witch-hunt with this board. Although I haven't seen any of his earlier graphics.

    Also, I'd skip boardslides for a couple of days with that new deck.
