Aeon Flux was cool and had fantastic art, but The Maxx had a much more complete story arc.

Pretty much, I liked Flux a lot too. The one with the woman trying to get through the wall was a neat one. She didn't make it though and the strings shoot out grab her legs, needles come out numb her, saws cut her legs off then it stitches her up and releases her.

Yeah, that was a great episode. Aeon did definitely have the better single episode storylines, but watching The Maxx from beginning to end was much more rewarding.

The Maxx was a favorite. I didn't quite understand it all until I was older and re-watched it. Pretty complex themes in a surreal world and all. Good stuff though.

Yeah, I feel like Aeon Flux was a better series overall even if it wasn't as cohesive as The Maxx. Both sorta fall apart as they reach their end though

I only ever saw the Maxx at weird times in the early morning when I was too sick to sleep, so all my memories of the show are hazy from fever dreams. It was pretty rad from what I remember.

One time there was a weird mutant baby and then Aeon Flux woke up from jungle fever and the dude who she is always trying to kill was her lover and that's all I remember

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.

Can someone explain the maxx to me? I'm in the same boat where I only saw it at crazy late times.

Maxx was a homeless guy with claw hands, and he was constantly being attacked by weirdo little alien things, and sometimes he'd flash into an alternate reality?
There was a social worker he was in love with and would protect??

Was he even a superhero or was it just part of his psychosis?
