T H E TI C K (23 February)
Evil, beware. Amazon Video’s The Tick returns to fight for honour, justice and the right for grownups to wear tighter than tight tights. After the fanfare that followed the first six episodes of Amazon’s rendition of the popular comic and 90s cartoon series, released in August last year, the network has announced that it will release the next six episodes of The Tick Season 1 all at once on 23 February. This is superhero satire at its best, so expect hilarity and edginess as The Tick and his adopted sidekick, Arthur the accountant, battle to keep the forces of evil at bay.

Don’t discount your wildest sci-fi dreams just yet. Rumour has it that the ‘world’s first holographic smartphone’ will officially launch in early 2018. You’ve marvelled at cinema-camera maker Red’s handiwork before. Blockbusters like Guardians Of The Galaxy, Transformers and most big Netflix productions were shot using a Red camera. Now, Red has partnered with the world leader in holographic tech, Leia, to produce the Red Hydrogen, a 5.7-inch holographic display smartphone that even lets you view stereo 3D content from up to four angles without needing 3D glasses. Red says that you can even shoot 3D and holographic content with the Hydrogen.
