Tick and Arthur go on their first patrol of The City, battle a bank robbing monstrosity, and attract the attention of AEGIS. Dot has a weird day. She and Overkill have a few drinks and compare plights.
When Arthur goes off on a date with Carmalita on Hobby Night, Tick builds himself a new sidekick – Little Wooden Boy. Swiss Commandoes are after the notebook of Dr. Vahtoss, Carmalita’s father and the inventor of Arthur’s flight suit. And Blowhole, a giant long-distance running whale, accidentally swallows everyone, forcing the Tick to light up Little Wooden Boy to cause Blowhole to choke them up. Yep, just another day in The City…
