Amazon Prime Has Canceled The Tick After 2 Seasons

Amazon has decided not to move forward with The Tick. The announcement came from series creator, Ben Edlund who took to Twitter to announce that there won’t be a third season — at least on Amazon. He did mention that “Destiny demands that my compatriots and I now seek a new home for this series,” so no one knows what the future holds.

I'm sorry to say Amazon has chosen not to proceed with @TheTickTV I'm not sorry to say I love this show, its cast, its story, and its message. Destiny demands that my compatriots and I now seek a new home for this series.
