Character(s): The Tick; Arthur; Rubber Ducky; Bumbling Bee; Portuguese Man-o-War (dream); Apocrypha (dream); Running Guy (dream); Caped Cod (dream); Red Scare; Kurt Bombast; Capricious Blue; Sally; Tunn-La

First Line: Here's the question on everyone's mind...

Synopsis: The Tick and Arthur watch a presidential debate between Kurt Bombast, Capricious Blue and the Red Scare. Bombast proposes ridiculous ideas such as super-villains paying for an expensive new prison, Capricious is wishy-washy and Red Scare simply doesn't want to be recognized as a super-villain. Tunn-La attempts to control the minds of the candidates as part of an admittedly "unnecessarily complicated plan" to control the USA but the Tick wrecks Tunn-La's mind control machine.

Notes: Obvious satire of the 2016 US Presidential election. The Tick's dream sequence satirizes the presidencies of George Washington, Ronald Reagan, George Bush, Bill Clinton and Gerald Ford.
Story also contains references to the Ramones, the Beatles' 'Helter Skelter' and the 2006 film version of 'The Wicker Man.' Kids love Wicker Man references!
