Likewise, he's always durable enough to survive anything that happens to him without real injury, but also just sensitive enough to suffer pain from it.

* EvilCounterpart: Despite being a one time villain, he can be considered a villainous version of the Tick himself, as they're both completely out of their minds and have insect motifs, and even having antannae as a part of their outfit. The main difference is that despite being a lunatic, the Tick is an incredibly friendly and benevolent guy who isn't held back at all by his insanity, while the Evil Midnight Bomber is dangerously insane, not to mention self-centered, as he wants to blow up as many superheroes as possible just for the VillainCred.
