Anyone familiar with 'The Tick' Comic/TV series?

Is there anyone familiar with 'The Tick' comics and/or TV series (in particular the 90s cartoon or the 2000s live-action)? I recently started watching the amazon 'Original' reboot of The Tick and was a little disheartened to discover that the superhero agency was called AEGIS. For those that are following my ongoing serial on my website you're probably beginning to realize my problem, but for those that aren't well... I also named the superhero agency in my series AEGIS.

I watched the cartoon occasionally when I was a child, but given that I was eight or nine-years old when it debuted and it's been a few decades I don't recall much about it.

My question is this does anyone recall AEGIS existing in previous incarnations of the show or comic or is it merely something created of the newest one? If it is the latter rather than the former I can rest easy as I came by the name independently since the first few chapters of Psyren's Redemption predate the premier of the Amazon show by more than a year.

I've searched the web, and while it does seem that AEGIS was created for the new series, I cannot find anything that conclusively states that it was.

Thank you all and have delightfully demented day,

Daniel A. Wolfe
