“I think Ben’s whole notion, which I agree with, is the best way to satirize something is to come at it from a place of love and respect,” Newman said.

Or, at the very least, the show has to “attempt those standards” on a TV budget.Īt the same time, The Tick really isn’t about the action set pieces. “We have these big set pieces and they’ve got to look good because they’ve got to compete with the latest Marvel movie,” Serafinowicz said. Not only was he pleased to watch the episode with a group of eager fans, he was also excited to see the completed special effects and music and all the bells and whistles that Newman said “makes a big difference on a show like this.” Like the fans who attended The Tick‘s WonderCon panel, Serafinowicz watched the season 2 premiere for the first time at the convention. And, sometimes bad people do good things for the wrong reasons.” “There’s a lot of trying to figure out who the good people are and who the bad people are, because sometimes good people do bad things for the right reasons. But that process will also opens up a grey area unfamiliar to the Tick, whose moral compass has always been binary. “You have to file an incident report after you punched a bad guy,” Newman said.

And AEGIS itself will also act as an antagonistic force of sorts as the Tick and Arthur learn how to deal with “the bureaucracy of being a superhero.” While fan favorite characters like Batmanuel and Captain Liberty won’t pop up around the water cooler just yet, one classic Tick villain will appear in season 2, Newman confirmed. It’s a central place where the characters can hang out.

In all seriousness, though, the heroes gather in the office kitchen every morning and drink free AEGIS coffee just like everyone else. The Tick’s lasting presence in pop culture is due in large part to the audience being able to relate to the titular hero’s experience, Newman said, “even in a thing that we don’t usually think of as a career.” And then you get near the industry, you start working in it and around it and you’re just like, these are all people just doing their jobs and everyone comes in every morning with bad breath.” It’s like when you’re a kid and watch movies and think its so glamorous and magical. “You understand how many different superheroes there are doing it for different reasons and the different levels of a career,” he said. You know, these brave people,” Newman explained. But the Tick and Arthur discover “there’s this sort of pettiness of the career jockeying” as other heroes try out for the team. “It’s the idea of it being an industry. So often superheroes are taken as just like this magical force in the world. But as Newman noted, AEGIS - and its plan to introduce a new version of the Flag Five superhero team - is an extension of something creator Ben Edlund has been playing with since The Tick’s comic book and animated incarnations.
#The tick cartoon series
Obviously fans will be happy to finally have The Tick animated series on DVD - and, with any luck the rest of the 36-episode series will follow intact - but, given the completist nature of collectors (and the fact that the entire series was released on VHS), there is bound to be plenty of grousing in the fan community concerning the missing episode.With the defeat of The Terror ( Jackie Earle Haley) at the end of the first season, The City faces a new day with superheroes returning in droves, supervillains appearing to fight them, and AEGIS - the government agency tasked with monitoring the superhero community - reopening its doors in town. The packaging for the two-disk set that was originally announced in January (see ' The Tick Coming to DVD') and described as The Tick Season One, now reads 'The Belated 10th Anniversary Edition.' So far Disney/Buena Vista has not revealed the nature of the dispute, which has led to the elimination of one episode from the 2-disk set, which will still retail for $34.99 when it is released on August 29th, and which will contain a lithograph from The Tick comic book creator Ben Edlund. According to TV Shows on DVD, because of a legal dispute Buena Vista Home Entertainment is only releasing 12 of the 13 first season episodes of The Tick cartoon on DVD.
