The Tick: Free Comic Book Day 2018

My first Tick comic as well as my first from New England Comics, The Tick: Free Comic Book Day 2018 tells three different stories all with different styles of artwork but the three still being very similar to the 1990s animated series. The first one has the blue superhero take part in a medieval prophecy involving kings and dragons, the second has Tick and Arthur help a pizza delivery guy get to his next destination, and the last has the nigh-invulnerable hero being asked to become the best man for another hero's wedding while protecting him from his past. Having seen the animated series, the Patrick Warburton live action version of the early 2000s, and the new one in Amazon, this comic is just as funny as those adaptations. The comedy is fast paced, Tick is just as over the top as ever, and each story you can see all three actors that have voiced and portrayed him whenever he talks. Even when the three stories have different artworks, they're all really good and fun while keeping with some similar aesthetics like Tick's size and the colorfulness of the universe he inhabits. I would love to see the new series adapt all three of the stories, though expanding them, as it would fit right in. Over all: 100%
