After he watches his father die at the hands of the Terror, Arthur Everest spends decades hunting the super-villain even though the latter is believed dead. It's not until Arthur meets destiny--and a blue-clad nigh-invulnerable hero calling himself the Tick, and a moth-themed battlesuit--that he can become the superhero he was always meant to be. Maybe.
