Friends, the wait is over. Prepare to shout SPOON at the top of your lungs

Soon to be sucking blood and dishing out some two-fisted justice from a DVD player near you... THE TICK Animated Series!

Yes, The Tick, will hit shelves August 29th. That's right citizens of The City! The Tick vs Season One will be out on DVD from Buena Vista Home Entertainment.

Hear such awe-inspiring lines as:

I don't know the meaning of the word "surrender". I mean, I know it, I'm not dumb... just not in this context.

You can't blow up the Earth, that's where I keep all my stuff!

And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking, but when you're good and crazy, oooh, oooh, oooh, the sky is the limit.

Destiny's powerful hand has made the bed of my future, and it's up to me to lie in it. I am destined to be a superhero. To right wrongs, and to pound two-fisted justice into the hearts of evildoers everywhere. And you don't fight destiny. No sir. And, you don't eat crackers in the bed of your future, or you get all... scratchy.

The two disc set will include twelve episodes (of the original 13, see notes below) from season one .

The Tick vs. The Mole Men
(Episode 11)
This episode is missing due to what is called 'creative considerations' i.e. who owns the right? They are working to get it released on a future DVD. Many consider it the weakest episode in the series. It's probably something to do with Cindy Crawford and her likeness in the episode.

The Tick vs. Proto-Clown
(Episode 12)

The Tick vs. Arthur's Bank Account
(Episode 13)

Come on, Arthur. The night is young and we have umbrellas in our drinks.
