The Tick (animated)

Composed/Performed: Doug Katsaros

“Da-da dweee! Da-da dwee dowww!”

The animated version of the Tick introduced me to one of my favorite characters. The Tick was special in the world of superheroes… a satire of the genre that showed how much it loved it as well.

The theme of the animated series was catchy and stuck in your head. Kicking off with an alarm clock, the scatting done by composer Doug Katsaros was intriguing and fun. The horns in the theme were in your face, much like the character of The Tick.
