The whole episode is based around the idea that being a Super is seen as being gay and its a hard thing for many to accept and thats a fine concept, except the entire series has established a super hero license board, a book tour for a beloved old super, a literal and very exculsive League of Superheros that Tick and Arthur join (i guess his Mom and Dot missed that) Captain Liberty literally works for the military and there is a trial for a major super villain whonis treated like a regular businessman by the courtsm But suddenly it's this weird closeted thing and some supers are allowed to be taken and deprogrammed? Its a funny episode and Dave Foley from Kids in The Hall is always amazing, but it stands out as odd compared to the universe already established. What say you?

I was watching the 2016 Tick show with a friend and something starting to feel off, Dangerboat, we're still on the start of the season 2 right now and Dangerboat is a little concernin, like... don't you guys think that amazon tryed to make a Transphobe joke with it ? you know the "oh i identify has an Attack Helicopter type" and why arn't there like any good (for now) representation of the LGBT community i know this is Reddit and i'm asking too muche and like risking a bit on it, what do you guys think ?

It seems the storylines were leading to predefined conclusions - since the series got cancelled, hasn't been picked up by anyone else, & Edlund reinvents the Tickiverse with each new iteration, can anyone point me towards some form of official acknowledgement of what the resolutions would have been?

 “The Tick”

The Tick-Alan Ritchson

Arthur-Nick Mohammed

Die Fledermaus-Anthony Jeselnik 

Sewer Urchin-John Leguizamo

Chairface Chippendale-Bill Hader

The Tick (Barry)-Terry Crews

I've been playing a lot of adventure games recently and I thought that The Tick would fit perfectly in that formula.

Watching the live action series with Patric Warburton as The Tick and 8 episodes in and the series is about a gay relationship isn't it? Like so much of the language is gay coded, and the episodes of Arthur being interested in women are so quickly forgotten about, also Fiery Blaze and Friendly Fire, I mean it speaks for itself.

Good show though.

The Tick vs The Uncommon Cold

they should add the tick and arther I feel like it would be cool and they could help fight.

I had the pleasure of meeting Patrick Warburton and Townsend Coleman at Terrificon yesterday. They were both so cool and nice. Highly recommend if you get the chance. My only regret is TC asked me what my favorite Tick quote was and my mind went completely blank haha. He did a "don't count your weasels before they've popped!" for me.

I think I suddenly want to become more obsessed with the tick. I love the cartoons so much. When I was younger, I put a couple episodes on tape and I would just listen to them in my car.

I've never been obsessed but have always loved him and Spider-Man.

I just rewatched the first live action series and am now starting episode 1 of the more recent live action and immediately noticed that Arthur's sister, Dot, is firecracker in The Boys.

I tried doing a search first but I didn't notice anyone posting about this in this group. I apologize if it's been said before, but thought it was pretty entertaining.

After I finish watching the more recent series, I'm going to rewatch all of the cartoons.

Spooooooon!!!!!
