K.T Simpson
He’s a superhero unlike anything we’ve seen before, and he’s pretty darn blue. In the literal sense. Based on the Ben Edlund comics, “The Tick” is played by Peter Serafinowicz, and is not your ordinary superhero.
The trailer for the upcoming TV show has been released, and you can check it out above.
The Tick centres on an underdog accountant, Arthur Everest, with zero powers who comes to realise his city is owned by a global super villain long-thought dead. As he struggles to uncover this conspiracy, he falls in league with a strange blue superhero…The Tick!
