The Tick creator Ben Edlund says it was “pretty incredible” to revisit his creation for a live-action series with the same name for Amazon Prime Video.

“It was pretty incredible to have something like this happen again. I have now done four distinct versions of this idea like in cartoons, previous broadcast television show and now this live action show for Amazon Prime Video,” Edlund said.

Edlund created the big blue superhero The Tick in 1986, and is now acting as an executive producer of the Amazon Prime Video show.

Talking about the recreating the superhero for different mediums, he said: “It has really been a unique journey with an opportunity to invent and then re-invent this character, and sort of work on different way of presenting it. It has been an unusual opportunity that I treasure.”
