The Tick: The Entire Series

I was frustrated, angry, a little bit depressed, and determined to stay that way. Fortunately for me, handed me two DVDs from his then-stuffed PT Cruiser. I said “I don’t like borrowing DVDs.” He said, “Watch it.” I said, “It won’t be as good as the cartoon.” He said, “Homo.”

Okay, the conversation may not have gone exactly that way. But it was close. So, after I finished Heroes, I popped this one in. I chuckled. I chortled. There were even a few points that brought out a guffaw. Batmanuel and Captain “Tightpants” America provided nearly enough amusement that villains like Chairface Chippendale weren’t really needed. Also, Arthur’s attempts at dating were -almost- awkward enough for me to fast forward. Almost.

I gave it four out of five stars. The irony of the Immortal dying… in bed with another superhero… just brings a tear to my eye.
