The new Tick live action series is set to release in a few days on August 25, and I thought it'd be fun to have a thread about it.
 
The Tick began as an independent comic book which would put out several issue series from time to time. It got an animated TV show which ran for 3 seasons and a live action TV show which was only given 9 episodes. The live action show didn't run long enough to find its footing, so I feel mixed on it, but it had some great moments. The animated series was really where The Tick got to shine with crazy over-the-top super villain antics and inhuman characters.
 
Much of The Tick's appeal is the zany, clever dialogue, and The Tick's good-natured lack of awareness and rationality. It's a parody of superhero comics and movies.
 
This new show begins with a world akin to Netflix' Daredevil, then proceeds to inject wacky humor into it and hilarity ensues. Certainly a parody that takes modern superhero film and TV/streaming into account.
 
I love the pilot for this series (free to watch on Amazon Prime) that came out some time ago, and I'm really looking forward to this show- very much my kind of thing.
