"The Tick is a work in stupid. Just as others may choose clay or stone or paint, I and my compatriots have chosen stupidity as our medium. But stupid must be worked and mastered like any other material; during this experimental stage, the viewer of the work may feel he or she is observing 'perceptiveness' or 'art.' This is simply an illusion."

-- Ben Edlund, creator of The Tick, from a Q&A (thanks to reader Rob for the link) about the hero's chronicles in all its forms, including the new live-action series, which got better its second time out, even though the Tick wasn't his usual heroic self. Still, out of the hands of Sonnenfeld, the direction was sharp, and Batmanuel is a glorious creation. More, please.
