..and later Arthur horrified whispering:”…I can taste your back….”

Also, the Tick after being asked to show his superhero ID:
“I see – spelling America with a ‘k’ now, are we?”

My favorite is when he’s being interviewed, and the interviewer asks him: Mr. Tick, do you have the power to destroy the Earth?

Tick: Egad! I hope not! That’s where I keep all my stuff!

Other than ammo (which I can’t ship without a license) i got no accessories for it.

Tick: It’s your turn now, Thorace-bog.
Thrakkorzog: It’s Thrakkorzog. Thrakkorzog. With a K.
Tick: We’re only serving humble pie, Whatchamazog.
Thrakkorzog: For the last time, it’s…
Tick: Thorax-and-a-bog. Four-yacks-and-a-dog.
Thrakkorzog: No.
Tick: Ah, laxative-log.
Thrakkorzog: No, no, no.
Tick: Sapsucker-frog.
Thrakkorzog: Thrakkorzog.
Tick: Susan?

Alas, our only gun remains the “plinking” gun, the Browning .22

When next your up here, range time is on me. Bought a gun yet? Not sure what accessories I have that would be appropriate for you.

Speaking of the blog name, one of these days I need to collect that range time. Unless you’ve got some old accessories you’re willing to part with.

Can’t wait for the DVDs – I’d buy them in a heart beat.

As a busy Hollywood voice-actor, Townsend Coleman is perhaps one of the most recognizable voices on TV. For the past 12 years, he’s been the voice of NBC’s “Must See TV” comedy promos and promos for “The Tonight Show” starring Jay Leno, “Saturday Night Live” and “Late Night with Conan O’Brien”. But the character behind the voice actually came to life in 1985, when Coleman, having just moved to Los Angeles from Cleveland, Ohio, won a chance audition for the animated hit, “Inspector Gadget”. As the voice of Corporal Capeman, Gadget’s bumbling assistant, he embarked on an entirely new career, providing the voices for some of the most memorable characters in cartoons and commercials over the past 20 years. In addition to thwarting evil as the voice of “The Tick”, Fox Kids’ hit animated series, he has provided the voice characterizations for many other popular cartoon characters as well, including Michaelangelo on the original, long-running cartoon series, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles”. He also played Waldo on “Where’s Waldo?”, Gobo on NBC’s animated “Fraggle Rock”, Scott on “Teenwolf”, Scratch on “Spacecats”, the voice of Wayne Gretzky on “Prostars”, Riot on “Jem”, Dragonflyer on “Glofriends”, Rewind on “Transformers” and many others.

In addition to his active animation career, Coleman has also been the voice behind numerous national TV ad campaigns for clients such as Home Depot, Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes, Mattel Hot Wheels, Sunny Delight, Colgate, Jenny Craig, Blockbuster Video, Greyhound, AT&T, Eggo Waffles, Taco Bell and “Spot”, the precocious red 7-Up dot… even a few “Keebler elves” and “Raid bugs”.

If it weren’t for the Tick, I wouldn’t have a nickname to use for both Kevin Costner and Al Gore: “Little Wooden Boy!”
