“One Man's Treasure...Is Another Man's Treasure”

In "One Man's Treasure...Is Another Man's Treasure," the Tick and Arthur take over Barry's mansion and the Tick Cave beneath it, only to find their new base is anything but peaceful. With Barry now plotting behind the scenes, the duo heads out to investigate strange goings-on at Brenda Industries—unaware that their former foe has just given every villain in the city a detailed map to their doorstep. Written and illustrated by Ben Edlund, with inks by Jeff Whiting and lettering by Bob Polio, the cover by Ben Edlund and Jeff Whiting captures the absurd tension of the moment.

Having defeated Barry for the right to use the super hero name "The Tick," it is determined that the Tick is also entitled to his base of operations and all of his equipment. As the Tick and Arthur move into the Tick Cave underneath Barry's mansion, their opponent turned host hatches a devious plan. When our heroes head out to investigate nefarious happenings at Brenda Industries, Barry calls his rogues gallery and tells them all about his new look, his new sidekick and where he can be found.
