Dammit! I love The Tick and feel like Charlie Brown with the football at this point. > [@Broomstick](#): > > The animated version reached three seasons. Oddly enough, I’ve never watched that one. I was a fan of the comics too, but I consider the animated series to be the definitive version of the character. If you liked the Amazon show track it down. It’s amazing. ---

The animated version is the definitive one. They had the freedom to create heroes and villains that no live action show could ever afford. “Aurthur! My mustache is touching my brain!” ---
