Thank you Amazon! You and Netflix are quickly becoming my favorite production companies!

Don’t worry citizens, The Tick is back to save the day!

Broad-shouldered Patrick Warburton only sported his blue antennae for one season the first go-around, but the critically acclaimed superhero parody is now being revived on Amazon, a source tells PEOPLE.

The cult-classic series is based on a comic book by Ben Edlund and was first brought to television as an animated series that enjoyed three seasons of success in the mid 1990s. In early 2002, Fox canceled Warburton's live-action version (which also starred a pre-Lost Nestor Carbonell) after just nine episodes.

But no one can stop The Tick from keeping watch over The City.

Warburton – who has also appeared on Seinfeld and Rules of Engagement – recently inked a deal with Amazon and Sony to reprise his role, with Edlund producing and writing, according to the source.

Fans can only hope Oscar-winning costume designer Colleen Atwood will once again design Warburton's ab-tastic blue body suit.

Never saw the live action version. Loved the cartoon, though.

hmm, not sure about this.

The cartoon was amazing; I didn't really like the live-action. I saw 2 episodes, at least.

I also never watched the live-action series but loved the cartoon.

The LA version was... interesting. I can see how it became a cult classic, although it's a little silly for my taste.

I only saw the cartoon and it was brilliant. Love the Tick! :thumbsup:

I was disappointed that they are bringing back the live version, not making more animated episodes and/or adding the animated version to streaming

But for those that liked the live one, enjoy!
