The Maxx is back on MTV

...kinda.

MTV.com has begun streaming their '90s-era bizarre-yet-fascinating cartoon adaptation of Sam Kieth's even more bizarre-yet-fascinating comic book series The Maxx. As I (distantly) recall, the series focused on a homeless dude who might or might not be a superhero in this place called The Outback, and his relationship with his social worker, who had all kinds of dark past. It was like a 1000% creepier, more grown-up version of The Tick. I remember enjoying both the cartoon and the comic book, so I'm looking forward to re-acquainting myself with the story.
