The City Is a fictional location in the animated television series The Tick.
History[]
The City is one of America's most crime-ridden cities, and is targeted by supervillains constantly, along with having a massive supervillain population, housing such villains as Chairface Chippendale, the Breadmaster, Brainchild and Mr. Mental. Its mayor, Mayor Blank, is a coward, and regularly works around its policy of not giving into terrorist demands.
The landscape around it changes on a regular basis, going from crops to tall trees, or grassy fields. At one point there was a tall mountain next to it, where The Terror camped his mobile home temporarily, along with his team of evildoers.

Trivia[]
- This version of The City is quite different from the one found in the comic book. While this The City is a bustling hive of super-crime, the comic one is rather slow in comparison. So much so that Tick and Arthur leave it to find more crime in New York City.
