The Tick is coming to DVD

Filed under: Television — bblackmoor @ 12:19

According to TV Shows on DVD, The Tick is finally coming to DVD!

The Tick, the super-popular 1994 animated series that ran on the FoxKids Saturday Morning Block after originating from the Ben Edlund comic books, is coming to DVD in 2006! The comic book character was also the inspiration for a 2001 live-action series that’s already on DVD, but fans of the original cartoon have been desperately waiting for news of a DVD release. […]

There were 36 episodes of The Tick, which came to be owned by Disney at the same time Power Rangers and X-Men did, as a result of the mouse-house’s purchase of the Fox Children’s Network block (who in turn owned many of the Saban shows as well). Our industry sources indicate that Disney will almost certainly release The Tick in a multi-DVD set, similar to DuckTales and Rescue Rangers releases last year. A release date has not been set, and anything can change to delay or scrap their current plans. But if things hold, we’ll see the set before 2006 is over, and probably released side-by-side with another Disney DVD animated TV show. What could that be? How about Darkwing Duck?
