| abstract | - El Seed is a supervillain from the animated cartoon series The Tick. He is "the self-proclaimed liberator of the plant population". He is voiced by Ed Gilbert. El Seed is a walking humanoid sunflower who speaks with a faint Spanish accent and wears a lime-green bullfighter's suit. He hates all non-plant life-forms, particularly humans whom he usually refers to as "monkeys", and intends to eliminate them all so that plants may rule the world again. He never actually fights but creates various forms of plant monsters using chemical concoctions to do his dirty work. El Seed is served by two women called the Bee Twins; identical twins in bee costumes (with wings that let them fly) who speak in unison. El Seed's name is a parody of the historical figure El Cid who was a Spanish knight in the crusades.
- El Seed is the major antagonist in The Tick franchise. He is an animated sunflower who wears a green matador suit and speaks with a Spanish accent. In the cartoon series, he is one of the most recurring villains. He has mental control and influence over all plant-life, and dreams of erasing all human and animals from the face of the Earth so his 'Plant Kindom' is supreme. He has a very low opinion, if any, of humans, constantly calling them 'monkeys' and 'counter-chlorophylls'. El Seed has two genetically altered assistants, a beautiful pair of twins called the Bee Twins, who assist him in all of his ventures, and speak in unison. El Seed's personality appears to be a parody of various Latin American dictators and revolutionaries including Che Guevara and Juan Peròn.
