The Maxx

My thoughts on this series as a whole have not entirely been formed yet, at least not so far as I would feel comfortable making them public. But anyway, I highly doubt that you came here to read what it is that I may or may not have thought.

As this series begins, we find the Maxx in a cardboard box stammering on about Cheers. Meanwhile closeby a woman is attacked by two hooligans, Teego and Fridge, the Maxx comes to her rescue only to be placed under arrest. The woman who was attacked, goes unnoticed by the police as they haul in the Maxx, unfortunately with both the police and the Maxx gone she finds herself before a menacing figure standing at the end of the alley. In the backseat of the police car The Maxx has a reoccuring vision of Australia, but not the real Australia, one instead with thousands of small hands coming from the ground dragging him under, and the Leopard Queen. His motivation, his reason to be a hero. The scene shifts to the City Health and Human Services office where Julie, an atypical social worker is asking some questions of a new patient. She is interrupted by what she believes to be an obscene phone call and then right after, a call from the police telling her that they have picked up the Maxx again. Later, while Maxx is leaving Julie's apartmen after Julie had bailed him out, she receives another obscene phone call, this one more violent. On the sidewalk outside Julie's apartment, The Maxx spots a foot and a half tall man, carrying two phones. The Maxx chases the man, only to reveal that the man is actually a creature, just like the things underground in his dreams, except black. After a hot pursuit, The Maxx is able to trap the creature in a dumpster, only to find it has chewed it's way out and his running up a drainpipe. After a short pursuit across the rooftops, The Maxx finds himself in front of the same menacing figure from the alley. This guy obviously knows him, but The Maxx can't initially remember..his memory begins to return and he recalls that the little black creatures are Isz, only twisted by being moved into this world. The issue ends with the manthreatening the Maxx, Too bad you'll be eaten before you'll have a chance to mutter this to anyone.
