The Maxx #25

The Maxx #25 from Image's July 1996 lineup presents one of the series' most striking covers — a close, looming view of the Maxx's distinctive purple-and-yellow masked face rendered in Sam Kieth's raw, painterly style, with bold yellows and deep purples bleeding into an almost abstract composition. The textured, spray-painted quality of Kieth's cover art gives the image a visceral, dreamlike weight that perfectly captures the series' unique mood. With "Lost and Found" as the story title and Kieth handling both pencils and inks himself, this issue feels like a singular creative statement.
