Streaming service Amazon Prime Video premieres the second episode of the second live-action adaptation of Ben Edlund’s comic The Tick, starring Peter Serafinowicz, Griffin Newman (Gravity) and Jackie Earle Haley (The Bad News Bears, Preacher), as part of the first season (all dropped on the same day). The new episodes make up only the first half of the first season, the rest of which will be released in 2018.
Arthur is shot by Ms. Lint’s thugs, but finds that the suit given to him by the Tick shields him from injury – well, that kind of injury. The Tick throws Arthur out of a window to get him out of harm’s way, and that doesn’t really help, other than allowing the two heroes to escape. The Tick then asks Arthur about his plan to stop the Pyramid Gang, because he honestly believes Arthur has a plan to stop the Pyramid Gang. (Arthur does not have a plan to stop the Pyramid Gang.) Arthur does, however, have a suspicion that the Tick exists only in his mind.
