The Maxx

Sam Kieth's surreal superhero and psychological drama The Maxx returns in a 2006–present run through Magic Press, with Kieth on art and co-writing alongside Margherita Galetti and William Messner-Loebs. Spanning five issues, this continuation explores the ongoing, dreamlike struggles of its hulking, masked protagonist and his connection to a social worker in a world where reality and the Outback blur. A key chapter in Kieth's long-running, cult-favorite saga, it matters for its unflinching, visually inventive take on trauma and identity.
