Asylum

In the mid-1990s, Maximum Press unleashed Asylum, a 12-issue series that pulled together a dark, supernatural corner of its shared universe. Writers Robert Napton, Chris Scalf, and Chuck Jones, alongside artists including Scalf, John Fang, and Héctor Gómez, wove a saga featuring Mr. Spook, Avengelyne, and the cybernetic Cybrid, alongside Battlestar Galactica’s Commander Adama and Colonel Tigh, blending cosmic horror with pulp action. It stands as a curious crossover experiment from the era, showcasing Maximum’s ambition to mix original creations with licensed icons.
