The Tick
Coming to your local comic book store this holiday season:
The Tick: All-New #1 written by Benito Cereno, drawn by me.
It’s a new ongoing series, with us as the creative team. Oh, we’ve got such plans. This first issue, which one might find on page 280 of today’s new Previews catalogue, with the item code SEP09 0937, is a Christmas special, something I’ve always wanted to do.
If you’re a regular comics reader, or even if you’re not, try to get down to your local comics shop and ask them to order a copy or two. It’s gonna be good and we want it to do real well.
Also, Arthur has some pretty shapely legs on that cover.
EEEEEEEE!
Oh, man, oh, man!
Will the sour tastes that were The Tick #12 and The Tick Karma Tornado be washed from my mouth to be replaced by a sweet ambrosia reminiscent of first elven issues of The Tick?
My heart swells with joy and anticipation.
And my HeavyInk wishlist grows by one more title…
This is amazing. I’ve been sorely disappointed with all the non-Edlund Tick comics so far (except for Sean Wang’s mini-series), and have been wondering when NEC would hire some proven talent on the book. Now they have. Was always blown away by your Middleman work, and now this is going to be incredible!
Thanks! I think we’ll do a good job on this– we’re both really excited to be working on it!
Never read the Tick before, but it will be great to see your work back in the stores! I’ll definitely get this! Good luck with it!
