Synopsis

Season 2 of The Tick (1995) is ready to watch online on iFILM — thirteen more episodes in which the cheerfully clueless blue protector of The City and his jittery partner Arthur stumble into ever-stranger trouble.

The scope gets bigger this time. Tick ends up drifting through outer space after blowing up a letter Chairface left on the Moon; Arthur starts dating Carmelita while a jealous Tick builds himself a wooden replacement sidekick. Then come the love goddess Venus, who swaps the heroes' arms onto crude doubles, a time-travelling crook who kidnaps history's great inventors, and an ant uprising led by Queen Betty. There's even a Christmas outing against Multiple Santa, a robber who spawns electric copies of himself.

Same creator, Ben Edlund, same trick: the hero delivers grand speeches about justice while everything around him collapses into nonsense. This run leans harder into the weird than the first. Stream The Tick Season 2 online on iFILM.
