The Tick (2016)	comment	The Tick is a 2016 Amazon Studios original series based on the comic book by Ben Edlund.In a Worldâ€¦ where superheroes have been a thing since a huge space object plunged into the Tunguska River Basin back in 1908 during what became known as "the Dawn of the Age of Superheroes", mild-mannered (if mentally troubled) accountant Arthur Everest (Griffin Newman) is following what he believes is the secret trail of The Terror (Jackie Earle Haley), an infamous super-villain many believe was already killed years ago by Superian (Brendan Hines), the first superhero.Arthur comes to the conclusion that the Terror is running The City from underground. However, as he tries to blow the lid off the conspiracy, things take a turn for the bizarre when he inadvertently sparks the interest of a big, blue, nigh-invulnerable, shamelessly hammy and rather enigmatic superhero who calls himself The Tick (Peter Serafinowicz). But can Arthur and The Tick really save The City from its own seedy underbelly? Or are the two of them (especially Arthur) truly in over their heads?This take on The Tick appeared as a part of Amazon Prime's Fall Pilot Season of 2016 in August 19, 2016 and was picked up for a full series on September 27, 2016. The series premiered on August 25, 2017 and was renewed for a second season on January 17, 2018.On May 16, 2019, Amazon announced that the show was canceled.Obviously this series is not in continuity with the 2001 series of the same name, though Patrick Warburton does return in the role of producer, and that show's executive producers had their credits carried over.

The Tick (2016) / int_1161fb48	type	Bizarre Alien Biology
The Tick (2016) / int_1161fb48	comment	Bizarre Alien Biology: The Tick's biology is a mystery even to himself. He doesn't know if he's organic or robotic, terrestrial or alien, and he doesn't even know if his distinctive blue "suit" is clothing or a part of his body. He's surprised to learn that his antennae are highly sensitive to the point of being an Achilles' Heel. It's also implied that he's stronger than any hero AEGIS have ever assessed, since he breaks a strength tester machine that's calibrated to overpower whoever it tests.

It's played for drama when Pearl (who Superian didn't bother to ask permission from first) is terrified of being dragged through the air at breakneck speeds.

The Tick (2016) / int_1badfb3a	comment	The Heart: While still definitely the brains of the duo, Arthur comes to embody this over the course of the season due to his empathic nature and lack of natural superpowers. It has positives and negatives: On the positive side, his empathy allows him to connect with Lobstercules and convince her to prove she is sentient. It also wins over Rathbone as he views Arthur the brains to the Tick's brawn. On a more negative note, Superian begins seeing Arthur for therapy, in spite of Arthur's protests that he is in no way a qualified therapist. Arthur's advice keeps on backfiring because of Superian's ego, leading Superian to nearly risk time travel and hurling the planet into space.

He's disappointed that instead of taking charge like he expected she would after his supposed death, she basically shut down and settled for being The Dragon to a chump like Ramses. At the end of their conversation, he tells her, "You're evil incarnate! Act like it!"

The Tick (2016) / int_26ac510e	type	Mythology Gag
The Tick (2016) / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: One of the mooks dismisses a bulletproof suit after claiming it "looks like a goddamn bunny suit." A running gag throughout the various Tick stories is that Arthur's moth suit is mistaken for a bunny suit. The scene where The Tick tries moving (and breaking) objects around Arthur's apartment in an attempt to find a trigger that reveals a secret lair hearkens back to the cartoon's first episode where Tick does the exact same thing in the exact same place. Same also happened in the first episode of the 2001 series. Shortly before the above scene, the Tick also quotes the cartoon version of himself saying "You're not going crazy, Arthur. You're going sane in a crazy world!" The possibility that the Tick may be a figment of Arthur's imagination can be a nod to the origin story of the comic book version of The Tick, which had him escaping from a mental institute. At one point Arthur even asks the Tick if he's an escaped mental patient. Arthur's bulletproof super-suit does not cover his face. Hardly seems like a coincidence that his catchphrase in the 90's animated series was, "Not in the face!" Said word for word by the Tick (regarding Arthur) in the season 1 finale. When Ms. Lint is asking the Tick why he won't die from her electrocution, he says "Because I don't wanna!" At one point The Tick describes answering destiny as "like the inside of bread." This is also a reference to the animated series. After having met a "killer" robot is contemplating whether or not he might be one as well, staring at a shiny polished spoon going "Spoon", again, this is in reference to the Animated Series. While not seen, Superian and the Terror's final battle involved his Spider-Tank, which served as the character's base and primary weapon in the comics and animated series. In season 2, the Man-Eating Cow is mentioned in a news ticker on TV.

Arthur makes a note of it. When it's redesigned again for the second series, it's briefly acknowledged as the Tick "moulting" and never brought up again. While Jergen is ranting about how he thinks the Very Large Man is a hoax, he mentions that the lungs of a 200-foot-tall adult male shouldn't be able to take in enough oxygen to keep him alive.

It's also the name of the episode. The original song plays prominently in the finale of Fight Club, a film which famously has the twist that the two main protagonists are one person. It could also be a reference to Mr. Robot, which similarly featured an instrumental version of the song shortly after a Split Personality revelation of its own.

The Tick not only has a different (less polished) costume, but is repeatedly implied not to be real at all. Interestingly, all of these elements are at least addressed: the villains are still vicious, Arthur lampshades the costume change, and Tick being real is treated a minor plot twist.

The following episode reveals that some of the thugs he fought are severely cut up, bruised, and burnt with some of them suffering from PTSD from almost dying in the blast. As they are criminals, they can't go to a regular hospital and the Back-Alley Doctor (assisted by Arthur's sister, Dot) is portrayed somewhat sympathetically for treating them. On the other hand, in a flashback, The Terror was pretty indifferent when Miss Lint fried a couple of their own "flamethrower guys" during a mission.

In the show he is shown to be a frighteningly effective criminal mastermind even as a wrinkled corpse of a man, and is even quick on the draw with a poisoned knife. Arthur's suit is a far more impressive piece of hardware. Not only is it bulletproof with a slew of other features, it was designed to help kill Superian. Keep in mind that in the cartoon, he could be put out of action if his wings got wet. Arthur's sister Dot, as well. She's a paramedic and a medical student who looks after her troubled brother and stitches up wounded baddies on the side. And in season 2, she develops some minor precognitive abilities. Despite a bare few seconds of screentime, Thrakkorzog appears far more impressive than his comic and cartoon counterpart. Though the original was large and physically strong, here they've been upgraded to a a full-on Eldritch Abomination with the mysterious powers that come with it.

The Tick (2016) / int_a3515d6	comment	Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: The Terror is this compared with the Duke. Both are villains previously believed to have been killed (the Terror with Superian and the Duke with Overkill) and have been operating in secret for years. The Terror is a regular person, albeit one with a large organization including a loyal dragon (Ms. Lint), access to technology and the funds for his operations. He also, in his bizarre way, encourages his minions to think for themselves and to strike out on their own, as he admonishes Ms Lint for not doing so. His organization is loyal to him, if either out of fear or true respect. He is also extremely hammy and loves evil for the sake of evil. The Duke operates with a similar large organization, access to technology and has the funds to continue their operations. The Duke, aka Hobbes, differs with his motivation and personality. While the Terror is evil, Hobbes views himself as a Well-Intentioned Extremist mixed with Fantastic Racism toward Categories. He doesn't believe AEGIS does enough to protect the world and is willing to mind control people to serve him and protect the world as he views it for the greater good. He does not have a loyal dragon and instead relies on mind control, on Lobstercules, and appealing to their baser natures, with offering Ms. Lint technology and fame. He relies solely on himself and operates in secret, tricking AEGIS as a whole. Much like the Terror, Hobbes is a regular person but while the Terror had backup plans in case things failed, Hobbes does not, allowing Arthur to knock him out easily after his mind control scheme fall through. Also, Hobbes is a very unassuming, quirky person and is the opposite of hammy, allowing him to continue his operations in secret with no one the wiser. While the Terror loves the spotlight, Hobbes prefers operating from behind the scenes.

The Tick (2016) / int_fd4f8299	type	Well-Intentioned Extremist
The Tick (2016) / int_fd4f8299	comment	The Duke operates with a similar large organization, access to technology and has the funds to continue their operations. The Duke, aka Hobbes, differs with his motivation and personality. While the Terror is evil, Hobbes views himself as a Well-Intentioned Extremist mixed with Fantastic Racism toward Categories. He doesn't believe AEGIS does enough to protect the world and is willing to mind control people to serve him and protect the world as he views it for the greater good. He does not have a loyal dragon and instead relies on mind control, on Lobstercules, and appealing to their baser natures, with offering Ms. Lint technology and fame. He relies solely on himself and operates in secret, tricking AEGIS as a whole. Much like the Terror, Hobbes is a regular person but while the Terror had backup plans in case things failed, Hobbes does not, allowing Arthur to knock him out easily after his mind control scheme fall through. Also, Hobbes is a very unassuming, quirky person and is the opposite of hammy, allowing him to continue his operations in secret with no one the wiser. While the Terror loves the spotlight, Hobbes prefers operating from behind the scenes.

When she threatens him to stop joking her voice cracks in anger, to which he politely replies if she needs a towel to clean herself, she responds, "yes," she would like a towel.
