Leaping from rooftop to rooftop in a single, hard-hitting thud, a mysterious blue defender of justice patrols the city known as The City. He is "The Tick," and his limited understanding of all things human does not interfere with his overzealous desire to protect humanity. When a mild-mannered accountant (David Burke) quits his job in corporate America to pursue his dream of being a superhero (complete with a moth jumpsuit), it's only a matter of time before he encounters the bizarre crime-fighting style of "The Tick" (Patrick Warburton). As the two team up to battle the evils of The City, they are joined in their fight against injustice by Batmanuel (Nestor Carbonell), a suave, self-promoting, crime-fighting Latin lover, and Captain Liberty (Liz Vassey), a sexy government operative who carries a torch.
