Tuun-La not of this World is an extraterrestrial being from The Tick Comics created by Ben Edlund and published by New England Comics Press.

Tuun-La believes that all earthling races are inferior and will eventually be destroyed by him. Until then he is content to be a part of the The Terror's supervillain team, the Evileers.

In "The Tick Big Yule Log Special" 2000, Tuun-La is invited by The Tick to stay at his and Arthur's apartment for the holidays as the rest of the Evileers have gone home for the holidays. There, Tuun-La learns the true meaning of earthling Christmas. In "The Tick Big Yule Log Christmas" 2001, Tuun-La is attacked, along with the rest of the Evileers, by the Man-Eating Cow, and, while it is not shown, presumably escape. In "The Tick Big Xmas Trilogy" (December 2002), he plays Bob Cratchit in the Tick's Christmas pageant.

Tuun-La, Not of this Earth appears in "The Tick vs. Arthur's Bank Account" (season 1) as a part of The Terror's supervillain team, The Legion of Terror. While being attacked by the Tick, Joseph Stalin (not actually Joseph Stalin, but Stalin Grad, a grad student in Russian studies who emulates Stalin), declares his love for Tuun-La and they flee the battle and the Earth, much to The Terror's chagrin. Tuun-La is voiced by Pat Musick.
