Agreed. The violence is there, the foul language is there, albeit indirectly...only thing keeping it from being max is actually spelling out the swears and the occasional nipple slip.

This was a great, great, great min-series. Another great job by Ennis and Robertson.

I would like to see a Drax the Destoryer MAX series. I really like the harda$$ cosmic character.

I wish Moon Knight worked on any level, MAX or not. I just dropped the book from my pull list, and that makes me sad, but it's just not worth $3 a month to me.
I liked the Fury comic that Ennis did, but I wasn't crazy about how it messed with the character. I enjoyed it as a What-If sort of thing, but in canon it would sort of bug me.

Any Marvel characters in the MAX series are pretty much considered outside the 616 universe.

I think Ennis' Thor Vikings was also a Max book and that rocked my world. Still one of my favorite minis of all time. So, Max can work for the big boys too. It's all about the writing.

I finally dropped Moon Knight too. Lord knows I tried with this book, I really did. Love the character, have every issue of his previous runs and most of his guest spots. For the life of me, I just couldn't follow this book. I'll come back w/ a new writer and some coherency.

I think Captain America could work as a Max title.
The man has seen it all....
