So MTV has started making a show called The Maxx, and from what I just watched it looks pretty wicked. Based on the comic book this could be a pretty cool show. I think the story line has to do with a man going into a universe in his mind trying to get away from reality or something. Whatever the case is I like the purple/yellow suit it’s very stylish.
In the murky alleyways of New York City, homeless Maxx huddles in his box and dreams of crushing evil villains. But when he bursts into the colorful netherworld of the Outback, the Maxx is a hero, in full purple splendor. His friend Julie, a freelance social worker, thinks the Maxx’s alternate universe is just an escape from the harsh reality of New York – not realizing that she, too, roams the Outback as the Jungle Queen.
Based on comic book series created by Sam Kieth, The Maxx was adapted into an animated series that aired as part of MTV’s Oddities in 1995. On MTV, the episodes drew from Kieth’s Image Comics publication of The Maxx #1/2 and #1-11, while the comic book series encapsulates a total 35 issues and counting.
