There was a lot to see and do at SDCC 2019... but there was no Ben Edlund.  :-(  I did manage to get this sketch from Billy Tucci.  His booth was next to the NEC booth.

Salivating here!  Chi and The Tick..did you get them CGC'd?

We all helped to get the word out there on Twitter but thanks for letting us all know what the final verdict was.  Oh Pooh!  #SAVETHETICK.  

Okay!  All done.  Anyone here needs a copy of The Tick FCBD IM me with a mailing address and I'll send it to you!

Just finished binge watching Amazon's Tick - Season 2.  Was very excited for the possibilities for season 3 and who some of the new characters might be.  (I won't say in case anyone hasn't watch the season yet).  And now I look forward to this years free comic book day in a few weeks!

Saweeeeeet.

@vnsdesigns   I have one... but not an extra one. Do you need one?  (I thought you had one)

Well, when I said the no. 1 ashcan that pairs with mine...it's the actual production one, like mine.  I haven't seen the red marks in the no. 1 but I know that I was bidding on it at the time, and I knew what it was, but alas I wasn't fast enough to bid on both of them at the same time.  There are a few really rare Tick things out there that are just one of a kind, and spread out across the country...if not the world.  Believe it or not, I bought some Tick related items from really remote areas in countries that you wouldn't have expected to have them.  Pretty awesome!  I should do an Indiana Jones type video showing what I mean sometime...on my list of things to do...in my spare time, hehehe.

This just arrived in the mail today!  That rare eBay find (at a super low price) just months after I posted on several sites I was looking for one (and had given up on ever owning one).  Vic, if you're #2 yellow ashcan ever ends up missing... um... it wasn't me. ;-)

Ha!  Too funny Brian!  Congrats on your latest acquisition.  The real secret is, do you know who owns The Golden Rod No. 1 ashcan that accompanies my number 2?  Hmmmm?

Go Tick and Arthur Go!  22 days 20 hours 40 minutes!

This sounds awesome!  Thanks so much.

Oh heck yeah!  I was beginning to do wonder when they were going to release Season 2!

Bag and board them with a good fullback or a couple of regular boards, and a mylar.  IMHO, it's not worth it to submit to CGC and you won't get better protection from doing so.

I once bought a series of the Madman Comics and the guy who sold them to me had them in hard plastic covers similar to the cgc covers but you allows you to open them.  Where he got them from is a mystery to me.   Wo!....The Founder of The Tick Appreciation Thread!  Transplant...I bow down to thee!

Love the Tick - especially the original cartoon

So 1 of a kind...

Dang!  There IS one in the Wild!  Thanks for sharing!

I heard all the cool kids are putting up their copies of The Tick from the NYCC 2018 on up...so here are mine!   Spoooooooonnnnnn!!!

Man...you guys on the East Coast have all the fun!  Peter Laird is supposed to be there who is REALLY hard to get for autographing...and if I had my wishes...I'd ask him to sign my Independent Comic Book Sampler along side with Kevin Eastman.  (((when are they going to invent a Star Trek Transporter so I can just beam over there?!!!)))  Super Megafest Comic Con Fall Fanfest 2018

Recent pickups from some board members: the two new NYCC exclusives and NEC Newsletter #16 - the 3rd appearance of the Tick.

Is anyone reading the new series? Was it supposed to end after 4 issues, or did not just not sell well?

 

 

Dang Dude!!!  I only wish I could have made it to the NYCC!  As of yet, I still need to add these to my collection if I can ever get my hands on them.  Vic out.

Thank you @vnsdesigns and @oddball.  Now I know I don't need to get the action figure as it has nothing to do with the Tick other than they used a Tick backing board for the package

Plus I think it was missing either the gbjr or shocker sticker in front.

Dude, that's Mr. Gone from The Maxx Series...I remember watching it on Nicelodeon or something.  He was the bad guy and arch nemesis of Maxx the outback rabbit and his keeper.  I probably got that all jacked up, but thats the gist of it.   Vic out.  I was gonna collect Maxx back in those days, but I didn't.  The Tick logo is just a promotional thing for GBJR or Shocker Toys, since they did a short stint.  They were one of those pay us now and we're build them later groups that have seen better days.  I had to pursue them to get my money back on a Tick from Wizard World, but they did better on their second round with The Tick.  At the time their action figures were pretty cutting edge stuff.  I think they had a scuffle with the artist who originally sculpted it too, but this is just off the top of mah head.  Heck, I have 5 of their Tick Action figures so it tells you that I dig the quality of their work...wish they would have produced their Barry Hubris.

Anyone know who was signing with Ben at the NEC booth.

Yuppers...let's see...I got Ian Nichols to autograph and sketch one, Jeff McCullough, Cole Townsend, Ben Edlund, and I got a bunch of Sketch covers that Bob Polio worked on while manning the booth!  My apologies to anyone I missed...it was a fast a furious SDCC 2018!...EVEN without Marvel being there!  Vic out

Okay, finally settling down from my SDCC 2018 Experience.  Wow!  Too fun!  Great meeting Brian in the real as well as Jeff McCellen!  Now looking at The Registry...guess who's number One?  This guy!  Woohoo!  Finally!  But I suspect not for long.  To be honrst, I know there are at least a half a dozen chaps out there who can easily kick my in the registry...but I'm gonna enjoy my day in the sun for now.  Hey, it looks like Adamantium won a real prize in the registry awards ceremony as well!  We Tick fans rock, thats all I can say!  Now I have to start posting up pics!  Spooooooonnnn!!!
