THE TICK CLASSIC 1998 WALL CLOCK SPINNING INTO SPACE MADE BY CHANEY INSTRUMENT COMPANY IN LAKE GENEVA, WISCONSIN, USA. ONE OF THE NICEST TICK ITEMS YOU'LL EVER SEE! THIS 8-1/2" QUARTZ CLOCK IS ENCASED IN A DURABLE POLYSTYRENE RED CASE WITH CLEAR LENS. THE AMERICAN-MADE MOVEMENTS USE ONE "AA" BATTERY WHICH ORIGINALLY CAME INCLUDED. DURABLE HANDS INCLUDE SWEEP SECOND HAND, WHATEVER THAT MEANS, SINCE THE SECOND HAND ON THIS ONE HAS A FLYING ARTHUR THAT TICKS AROUND THE CLOCK. COMES IN A SPECIAL CORRUGATED BOX THAT HAS LONG BEEN GONE AND RECYCLED INTO MILK CARTONS MANY MANY MOOOOONS AGO! THIS MULTI-COLOR TICK GRAPHICS OCCUPY THE FULL DISPLAY, INCLUDING TISH-ISH NUMERALS. THEY PLANNED ON HAVING A TICK WALL CLOCK IN EVERY OFFICE AT THE GIANT NEC PRESS CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS (ALL TWO OF THEM!). ONE WAS THE ONE THAT SAID "THERE IS ALWAYS TIME FOR JUSTICE!"...AND THEN THERE IS THIS ONE...WHEREVER IT CAME FROM!

The Tick Tie and Friends by Aqua Shut for comfortable life

The Tick Tie by AquaShut for comfortable life. I personally like the look and feel of the The Tick tie the best out of the lot. I saw three of these ties on Ebay and they all have different Maker Labels on them from Park Land to AquaShut. I saw one label that said 100% Polyester Made in Korea. This is a nice men's tie featuring the superhero The Tick and his sidekick Arthur, the main characters from the classice 1990's Fox cartoon show The Tick. Measures 55" Long x 3.5" wide at the widest point.

Those really are nice comics Divad! I especially like the autographed one from Ben Edlund from 25 years ago. That would have made him about 25 years old at the time? Pretty cool indeed!

Amazon Orders ‘The Tick,’ ‘I Love ,’ Jean-Claude Van Damme Comedies to Full Series

 

COURTESY OF AMAZON

SEPTEMBER 27, 2016 | 06:32AM PT

 

Amazon Studios announced that it has greenlit three comedies — Jill Soloway’s “I Love ,” “Jean-Claude Van Johnson” and its reboot of “The Tick” — as original series set to debut in 2017.

 

The half-hour series are “I Love ,” adapted by “Transparent” creator Soloway based on the feminist novel about a couple’s marital struggles in the artistic and academic community of Marfa, Texas; “Jean-Claude Van Johnson,” featuring martial-arts actor Jean-Claude Van Damme operating under an alias as the most dangerous undercover private contractor in the world; and “The Tick,” a revival of the offbeat superhero story based on the popular comic.

 

The new series orders come after Amazon released pilots of each show on Aug. 19; Amazon says it incorporates viewer feedback and ratings in deciding which TV shows to order as full series. “I Love ,” “The Tick” and “Jean-Claude Van Johnson” are slated to premiere exclusively on Amazon Prime Video next year in the U.S., U.K., Germany, Austria and Japan.

 

“These pilots were vast in scope, disruptive in tone, challenging in story and sometimes even funny,” said Joe Lewis, head of half-Hour series for Amazon Studios. “It’s rewarding to see customers embrace them in such a huge way. We can’t wait to premiere these series next year on Prime Video.”
