About the series
Marvel's 2000–2001 crossover Maximum Security is a three-issue cosmic thriller by Kurt Busiek and Jerry Ordway, in which Earth is declared a penal colony by an alliance of alien races, forcing heroes like Captain America, Carol Danvers, and Hank Pym to defend a world suddenly turned prison. The series stands out for its inventive premise—turning the planet into a galactic jail—and its focus on lesser-used cosmic entities like Ego, while also spotlighting Goliath and Delroy Garrett Jr. in a story that reshaped how Earth was perceived in Marvel's universe.
