Don’t be ashamed of your character that looks like the Tick, just remember Crimson Chin still exists and it’s basically identical to The Tick.
@Kek The Hero
I think NB Studios is being too hard on himself. I can see the inspiration in the character design as far as sihlouettes go. But with that hair style, the beard, and mask resembling more of Robin and The Incredibles than the Tick? I don't see how Face Beast looks like The Tick.
@@DemonicRemption To be honest I completely agree, originally I was just making a joke about how The Tick and Crimson Chin look a lot alike but now that I rewatch this I don’t understand how he thought that was a ripoff of The Tick.
Dude I thought I was the only one to notice that.
To be fair The Tick is literally just The Roach from the Cerebus comics.
I'm here after the blue beetle,
They need to learn from the tick and patrick warburton
The Tick reason for being a hero is just "I'm indestructible and strong so why not fight crime"
Better than saying, "Why not commit crime?".
probably one of the most chad reasons to be a superhero
One of the many things I love about the animated series, is Chairface Chippendale's plot to deface the moon. Other shows of the time would have stopped the villain before he could implement his plan and maintained the status quo.
Here the "Cha" on the moon could be seen for the rest of the shows' run.
Also there was no way Chairface could fit his whole name, using that font.
Well not exactly later in couple of episodes new villain who is spoof of Galactus bites big chunk of the moon along with letter C.
@@AikisDominator true. Said bite mark also stays up there for the remainder.
@@missingsig Why is it likely that joke was unintended? That doesn't make any sense, they wrote for him to not finish etching his name- saying it was an animation oversight doesn't make any sense
@@tallgnome3229 He thinks Tom and Jerry is better ignore is infantile ass lol
@@missingsigare you an idiot? It’s there a lot. Good lord, you are overeager to be a complete and total dipshit.
What I like about the version from 2016, is that it appears that his origin story in that one may be that he didn't even exist until his existence was necessary for Arthur plot armor. That is my favorite interpretation of his origin. He wasn't born. He wasn't an ordinary guy who gained powers. He doesn't have a past. He simply, is, because it's necessary for him to be.
Lol. Love your pic.
Who puts gum on a roof?
I love how the comic book made fun of superheroes at that time and the Amazon prime show makes fun of modern superheroes
Gotta love The Tick. SPOON!
Mother destiny calls to me, she says hello by the way. I am the Sterling silver ladle of justice pouring it's foamy cream over the just picked strawberries of crime. Ty for the useless info. SPOOOOON!
Sadly Amazon cancelled the show :’) I loved watching it 😭
It's so good. I don't get why ppl watch the flash and this get cancelled
@@leowu988 I haven't even watched the flash since halfway through season 4. It got boring and I was tired of the formula for every season being the same; flash is fastest man, oops looks like he's not now, he loses someone close to him, oh and now he's being framed, he begins either escape or behins taking out the lower bad guys again, then he kills the other fast guy or villain and reassumes role as fastest man.
No social media engagement I’m guessing, you can hardly find RUclips videos about it. The show is ridiculously good.
@@somesatisfaction I agree so much, it was such a good show
Without the Tick the Venture Bros wouldn’t exist as Jackson Publick one of the creators worked on both the animated and 2001 version of the Tick and he was introduced to his co creator Doc Hammer by Ben Edlund.
Plus Patrick Warburton voicing Brock Sampson
It sucks that Patrick Warburton's Tick run for only 1 season, literally everything about that show ruled
great fun fact: Part of the creation team, involved with the 90s FOX cartoon, the creators of the Venture Bros were involved!
A lot of the niche humor comes from them
that makes so much sense. I love both.
McCulloch even wrote a few epsiodes.
Ahhh, the all time greatest battle-cry...
"I HOPE I DON'T GET HURT!!"
Also "Not in the face! Not in the face!"
"IT'S OK TO PLAY WITH DOLLS!!"
@@Dudebrush4pwood Boys don't play with dolls, they're "action figures!"
This was NOT useless history, it was actually good. I really liked this video. Well done.
The Amazon show is really good. I’ve watched both seasons at least 3 times.
i just finished the amazon series, and while the show itself was good Im now absolutely obsessed with the Tick as a character. In my opinion the actor who played him was amazing at playing the role, although I guess if you were a fan of the other versions I can't really speak in that aspect as I never seen anything else yet. I'm so dissapointed they cancelled season 3, I really wanted to find out if Walter had to do with the creation of the Tick.
as a kid i liked the 90's cartoon. Now as an adult I went back and watched it and... its still better than anything on today. Worth a watch if you ask me.
The Tick is my favorite superhero
Met Ben briefly when he was still with New England Comics. I was glad to see him move on to better options.
The fact that originally he beat up beaker and bunson honeydew from the muppets to escape the insane asylum was hysterical
Didn’t like the animated series as a kid, I didn’t get it. Now having watched it almost 30 years later, I love it!
I was in love with the 90's show as a kid. I would go around yelling "SPOON!" at every opportunity. But yeah, none of my friends liked it. I think they felt personally insulted by deflator mouse and american maid since most of them were batman fans. lol
Always liked the tick. Wish the Amazon show would have been renewed. Remember when Spider-man took a jab at the tick in his show?
The Tick & Mystery Men is how it would be in real life. It wouldn't be so clean and perfect, people would have real issues with their powers and personal life.
The tick is freaking awesome
Game everyone hated? I liked it!!!
Yeah, it was a solid beat em up, if a bit long though. Honestly don't know what this guy was smoking, "everybody hated the videogame" bunch of bologna.
I hope we get a new Tick, a cartoon one preferably. And hopefully after the Amazon series Ben Edlund's done experimenting with edgy Tick and we can actually focus on the comedy
Yes!
Patric Warburton is the tick. I still think he was the best live action version
Haven’t seen it, but Warburton is brilliant in everything he’s done. I’m a Brit and I was surprised to see Serafinowicz in the role, but I think he did a great job.
This such an underrated video and channel, hope he becomes RUclips famous some day or sooner.
Brilliant stuff
Cool channel looking forward to more
Patrick Warburton was AMAZING as The Tick!
thanks for covering this, I looooved the tick as a kid!
This is real high quality content for sure! Keep it up man!
Brilliant character, especially in the original comics.
I loved the tick Comics and the cartoon, but the Patrick Warburton Tick was the best by far.
I wish the Amazon series had more episodes. It started off as my least favorite version of the tick (I started collecting comics in the 80s), to my most favorite and still feel like that series only got better and was really coming into its own when they cancelled it.
I loved both seasons on amazon and I was super bummed out when I realized the show was cancelled. Is it worth reading the comics?
Yes, though I don't think the original one ever had an ending.
Yes
I'd say its worth watching the 90's cartoon still. Its on hulu or something. I just watched it a year or so ago. it still stands up.
Heavily underrated show. Good video here!
I loved both TICK TV shows, and I want more.
Whassisname - that british dude, Serafenawiczsa - or whatever - he was excellent!
My favorite as a kid
2:12 Brilliant repurposing of the sound from Peace Walker's title screen. It was damn-near seamless, too. I'm impressed!
I have a plastic Tick figure I got in a Happy Meal years ago. It's always fun to take a trip down Big Blue Memory Lane.
Amazon show is amazing and not gritty. Its just more plot based, still fucking ridiculous though. Love it so much.
Naughty spawn! You face the tick!
I think I used to game with Ben... I loved The Tick from the get go, and I had the original comics. Until a "friend" stole them and sold them to Bop City Comics. Ah well.
The Tick from the comics is definitely my favorite version. Sucks to lose the original ones.
Couple years ago I found several issues of the New England Comics Newsletter, including the first appearance of The Tick. Sold them for hundreds and hundreds of dollars! 😋
Spooooooooooooooooon!
I wish you would have mentioned how Ben wrote for Venture bros for awhile
The Amazon shows is almost doing it realistic and acceptable but one thing is wrong: Tick's eyes and retina are never supposed to be visible, they're supposed to look like he's blind. Can't they do CGI that hides the eyes?
The comics are freaking awesome! Man Eating Cow, Paul the Samurai, the Ninja Hedge..... 🤣
whoa, they did a comic about the Ninja Hedge?
@@peterberg3446 Yes. In the first Tick comic book series #3 titled "The Night of a Million-Zillion Ninja". The Tick and Oedipus (who is a dead ringer for Marvel Comics Elektra) are hiding out in her mansion. Then, all of a sudden, a hedge mysteriously appears surrounding the house. Despite the "hedge" only consisting of ninjas holding a tiny twig and saying, "We're a hedge" the disguise is so ingenious that everyone falls for it.
@@howiehall4622 I know about the Ninja Hedge I just thought of it as a gag, not a character in the same way Man Eating Cow or Paul the Samurai are.
@@peterberg3446 Oh, I see what you mean. I guess it was confusing the way I wrote it! My bad.
Have you read Chainsaw Vigilante?
Awesome and nostalgic 😎
That Facebeast fellow you got there looked fun.
Bro why is this underrated??
I’m impressed by the amount of research
Loved the Amazon version I'm on season 2 episode 5 👍
That last throw with the tire to a persons head, it would kill a man..
Ben is a local hero. He lived a few towns over, in Pembroke, Ma.
They did a live action The Tick and I loved it, so of course they cancelled it.
The man with the brains of steel!
I'm still waiting for the Little Wooden Boy spinoff.
We need a season 3! Spoooon!
TV has been all downhill since the cancelled the 2001 live action Tick show.
Haha, I would have to agree.
Spooon!!!
SPOON!
I thought the tick was a test subject that escaped from a facility and later became a hero of a city that's just called the city
this is great
SPOOOOON!!!
in the picture at 1:24 Ben Edlund is wearing a Venture Bros shirt! He wrote and directed season 2's Viva los Muertos, the only episode of the Venture Bros not written and directed by the showrunners, Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick. Jackson Publick actually got his start in TV writing working on the Tick cartoon.
Living Doll: he's full of tinier men.
i like this
And here I am, watching a video from 3 years ago in my recommended.
Damnit. Now I'm gonna yell "Spoon!" As a cry of victory.
loved the animated series.
OfTen. OfTen.OfTen. Do you like ticks up your ofTen?
I loved Tick. And I still love the series. One of my favorite.. Why insault him.
One of my favorite lines in the Amazon version which spoiler alert one of the villains who is a twist villain and he’s model logging and then the tech yells would you stop villainsplaining
Spooooon! ☺️🥄
dude i hate that amazon cancelled their version of the tick, it kinda makes sense though, around that time the boys was getting way more popular and they simply shifted budgets.
invincible too.
hey we still got 2 great shows, i just wish the tick wasnt left on the back burner. its the perfect superhero.
This is so nice and well edited. Wheres your subs bruh?
RUclips doesn't recommend quality content bro lol
I remember being 5 and saw The Tick when it first aired.
Thanks for the video. I do the Tick.
I spent a good ten seconds trying to rotate my screen near the end lol. Good video tho :)
I loved that video game
Subbed
SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!
:=8D
Such good work. Excellent!
"Spoooooooooooooooooon!"
Well done & reminds me of one punch man
they need to do a tick cinematic universe
I've always felt that The Tick character was based heavily on Dave Sim's The Roach.
It's the other way around.
Interesting
Missed an appearance in the intro of MIB2 as T..
His name is Putty, his nemesis is Vegetable Lasagna
The show with Patrick Warburton was amazing.🖖
I was so bummed that Zombieland didn't get picked up from Amazon Pilot season. I loved the movie and it made more sense as a TV show. Though I also voted for Tick and thought it was great.
Thentick was a great show
I had the idea like where the spider that got hit by radiation in spider man but, without Peter parker.
Also, you forgot Tick's signature power, that of drama. He is a drama magnet, weird stuff ALWAYS happens around him.
Love me: witless overpowered heroes
SPOON
Easily, the animated series is the best version of Tick out there.
Men i love the animated series
Chairface must be inspired by the Chippendale chair villain from Al Capp's Fearless Fosdick.
I'll have to check that out, haven't heard of it.
Love how our polish last name broke your brain XD
