The Maxx #35

The Maxx #35 arrives in February 1998 with a cover that's equal parts surreal and striking — a small, wild-haired figure tumbles through open sky in a yellow spotted costume, caught between the looming dark mass above and the massive yellow-draped form of the Maxx crouching below on rocky ground. Sam Kieth's cover pencils and inks carry his unmistakable loose, expressive energy, framing this moment of freefall with an almost dreamlike sense of scale. Titled "Endings and Beginnings," this issue promises exactly the kind of introspective, boundary-blurring storytelling that has made The Maxx one of Image's most distinctive series.
