The Tick

In a world where superheroes have been real for decades, Arthur, an eccentric accountant, is the only one who knows that the notorious super villain ‘The Terror’ is back at work. Suddenly, a kind-hearted blue giant known as ‘The Tick’ appears out of nowhere. The strong but not particularly intelligent hero offers all sorts of useless advice to try and convince Arthur to don a brand new hero’s outfit and join him on his quest to find an enemy… In his third screen adaptation, creator Ben Edlund breathes new life into the bizarre 80s superhero. ZFF is screening two episodes of this brand new Amazon series.
