The big blue lug THE TICK has been a part of our lives since the 1980s, and is perhaps best known for the 1990s animated series. Now it is a new series on Amazon Prime Video, arriving at just the right time to give the loaf of superhero genre a big kick in the bread.
Thanks to Amazon Prime Video, we have an exclusive interview with creator Ben Edlund and star Arthur Newman, who plays Arthur in the new series.
Highlights include Newman’s declaration: “I would love to fight Spider-man. If I can start a feud right now through the press…I think Spider-Man’s a loser and I’d love to take him down.” Find out the context for that in the player below, or react summarily in the comments section.
Thanks again to Amazon Prime, Ben, Griffin and also Cam Williams, who hooked me up with the Amazon Prime Video connex.
