The Maxx

Norma Editorial's 2011 revival of The Maxx collects the original series' final story arc into a concise three-issue run. This Spanish-language edition brings Sam Kieth's surreal, emotionally raw superhero tale to a new audience, exploring the psychic landscape of its titular hero and his connection to social worker Julie Winters. The series is essential for its haunting, painterly art and its unflinching look at trauma and identity, cementing The Maxx as a cult-classic touchstone of 1990s independent comics.
