The Tick	comment	1994 Animated Series, a casual but incisive send-up of Super Hero shows (based on an independent comic by Ben Edlund written in the late '80s), featuring as its title character a super-strong, "Nigh Invulnerable" (or so he says), and (probably) insane Cloudcuckoolander with hypertrophied senses of justice and melodrama, given to bold, thoughtless action and near-incomprehensible aesop-like pronouncements. Assisting the Tick in his daily struggle against the Forces of Evil is Arthur, a former accountant, now moth-themed hero/sidekick. Frequently joining their adventures are Die Fledermaus and American Maid, two fellow crimefighters who bear a funhouse-mirror resemblance to Batman and Wonder Woman (or perhaps Captain America) respectively.The Tick's adventures are evenly split between well-intentioned cluelessness and actual battles against supervillains. These villains — such as Chairface Chippendale, El Seed, Brainchild, and the Terror — are frequently just as bizarre as the Tick and his allies. Some, like the Evil Midnight Bomber (What Bombs At Midnight) ("One of these days, baby! Milkshake! Boom!"), have even developed their own fan followings.In every episode, this program gleefully skewers the tropes and cliches of the Super Hero genre, distorting and twisting them like Silly Putty until they can stretch no more and snap back to hit you in the face. The resulting lunacy has spawned a cult following that continues to this day.A Recap page is in progress here.In 2001, Fox (who had aired the 1994 series through their Fox Kids block) attempted to revive the series in a live-action format with Patrick Warburton as The Tick, details are here.August 19 2016 saw Edlund return to the character for a brand new live action series exclusive to Amazon Prime, starring Peter Serafinowicz in the title role. The series takes a gritter approach to the setting - but not to the character.

The Tick / int_1ba8eb64	comment	"Tick vs. Europe" was this mixed in with Visual Pun and Bilingual Bonus. The Belgian superhero-sidekick duo of Eclair and Blitzen both have names referring to lightning (Ã©clair is French for "(flash of) lightning", blitzen is derived from the Germanic word blitznote blits is also a valid word in Flemish Belgium, as it is a Flemish/Dutch/Afrikaans word for "lightning": so the producers either got lucky here or did their homework.), with Eclair actually being a lightning user. On top of this, an Ã©clair is a French pastry (which is the first thing Tick thinks when he hears her name). Naturally, Eclair and Arthur have to take down a villain known as The Breadmaster.

She's also a bit of a deconstruction as she sometimes worries she isn't feminine enough. There's also Belgian superheroine Eclair, a one-shot character from "Tick vs. Europe." She is more androgynous-looking than Jungle Janet, though (for instance, compare her to her more traditionally feminine sidekick Blitzen), but this is never commented on by anyone and Die Fledermaus even hits on her (to no avail).

In Tick's case, its debatable if it comes off at all. Arthur was seen without the bottom half of his suit in "Little Wooden Boy", after Swiss mercenaries stole his pants. Though given that Tick is shown doing laundry in one episode, they presumably have more clothes than just the costumes (unless it's all sheets and towels).

Not to mention the various, Dick Tracy esque villains, such as Zipperneck, who has a zipper on his neck that he can pull down to expose the inside of his throat to horrify his opponents, Chairface Chippendale, Bolthead and countless others. Also worthy of mention is The Deadly Bulb/Pig-Leg, who for some unknown reason has a live pig in place of his right leg. The pig is perfectly healthy and acts like a normal pig, but being attached to each other leads to some strife.

Averted in Arthur's backstory in multiple adaptations: he attempted to wear his moth suit all the time at his accounting position, and this bothered the higher-ups enough that he was "encouraged" to take a leave of absence and get psychiatric help. The Tick himself qualifies, as well. When compared to most of the other "heroes" in The City, at least The Tick has the drive and focus to get the job done, with most of the city's other heroes, excepting American Maid and Sewer Urchin in sewer-related crimes, are either too weak or too cowardly to be particularly effective.

But it helps your appreciation of Keith Donner, cannibal villain. note And of course a "doner" is also a style of kebab, made from what you hope is meat.

Apparently there was also a "Tommy Gun" that did something similar. "Tick vs. Europe" was this mixed in with Visual Pun and Bilingual Bonus. The Belgian superhero-sidekick duo of Eclair and Blitzen both have names referring to lightning (Ã©clair is French for "(flash of) lightning", blitzen is derived from the Germanic word blitznote blits is also a valid word in Flemish Belgium, as it is a Flemish/Dutch/Afrikaans word for "lightning": so the producers either got lucky here or did their homework.), with Eclair actually being a lightning user. On top of this, an Ã©clair is a French pastry (which is the first thing Tick thinks when he hears her name). Naturally, Eclair and Arthur have to take down a villain known as The Breadmaster. As well as the Donner Party association, Keith Donner, cannibal, also has a name evoking the "doner kebab", a Turkish/Greek fast food item made from reconstituted meat of unknown provenance served in a pitta bread.
