Nestor Carbonell, David Burke, Liz Vassey, and Patrick Warburton in The Tick (2001)

Trivia

The Tick

Edit
A new Tick suit was created for each episode, constantly improving on the quality and practicality.
Both of Tick's antennae were remote controlled, and were independently operated on set by a puppeteer.
The pilot episode's version of the Tick suit was a one piece foam latex bodysuit, with the cowl attached underneath the collar bone. All subsequent versions featured foam rubber Tick pants, with the cowl/torso extending to the cod piece, allowing Patrick Warburton to go to the bathroom, and simplifying his suit-up.
Tick's shoes would constantly change from a sleek pair of sculpted Tick feet for close-ups, to thicker versions with sneaker bottoms, to huge blue platforms, to increase Patrick Warburton's apparent height.
The studio did not have the rights to all of the characters from The Tick (1994), so cartoon characters Die Fledermaus and American Maid were changed to Batmanuel and Captain Liberty.
