It's basically an old archaic word preserved in a set phrase. In modern English you don't usually get words ending in a c (it's usually -ck instead). Words that do end in a c are usually loan words (from French mostly):
Cul-de-sac
Well, I can find plenty of words:
fantastic
plastic
terrific
magnetic

And don't tell me they aren't modern, usual or words [/quote:2gf6z1l3]

*shakes fist*. OK, if we forget the -ic suffix. :P
