Tick

The Tick is a wacky hero who escaped from a mental hospital and started fighting crime in The City. Not much is known about The Tick's past because he is amnesiac. However, in one comic it is revealed that The Tick had a wife Cloris. He was a married man who became obsessed with trying to figure out what he wants to do most in the world. Cloris, due with her frustration with his "obsession", tries to beat some sense into him and reminds him of his responsibilities at home along with her desire to have a child with him. She gets fed up with him and storms off in anger, much to Tick's dismay. Later that night, he leaves her a note by her bedside telling her that he is going for a soul-searching journey to find his destiny. He wanders around from place-to-place until he finds out who he is and what his purpose in life is.
