Good news fans of The Tick! We have a date to save.
This past Saturday at NYCC—also known as New York Comic-Con—The Tick held their very own panel at the packed convention. It’s here that they let everyone know when we’ll be seeing the second half of season one: February 23rd, 2018!
I won’t spoil it for those reading that may not have watched the show yet, but the first half of season one certainly left us hangin’ off a high cliff. Lucky for those having been on the edge of their seat since, they also dropped a new trailer alongside the premiere announcement!
The trailer for the second half of season one can be seen below:
Plenty of teases for what’s to come were also discussed at the panel, with Ben Edlund saying that “All the relationships we set up—there are a lot of things laced into the first half and a lot of structure, to give you ‘payoff bombs’ exploding in your face, filled with satisfaction!” and Barry Josephson adding that we’ll see “more Superian, more Dangerboat, and more Midnight!”
Alongside seeing more of characters we already know, the introduction of classic characters was teased for potential future seasons. Characters like Man-Eating Cow and American Maid were name-dropped, but Edlund jokingly cautioned that people are still in the lab trying to figure out how to do Chairface Chippendale as a live-action character.
