The Tick Omnibus #1

In "How to Draw The Tick," Ben Edlund’s absurdist genius takes center stage as The Tick and Oedipus find themselves ambushed at a dinner party by a cadre of ninjas. When Oedipus is injured, The Tick’s grip on reality frays, leading him to an increasingly unhinged plan to destroy Ninja World—only to face a crisis of the Thorn of Destiny and a surprising intervention from Arthur. Meanwhile, Paul the Samurai, armed with nothing but a loaf of French bread, tracks his foe Sagin across the globe in a battle of wits and absurdity. The story, written and illustrated by Ben Edlund with inks by Max Banks and letters by Bob Polio, features a cover by Ben Edlund that perfectly captures the comic’s manic energy.
