The Maxx

After watching part of the show "The Maxx" and then reading a lengthy thesis on it, I must say I am impressed with the effort that went into turning a graphic novel into a TV series that stays true to it's origins. Personally, the series doesn't appeal to me, but thats a different subject. The way the novel was translated onto the screen is what was amazing, and you could definitely tell that it came from a graphic novel. Everything from to the color to the exact word for word dialogue was present. This way, the creators could appeal to their fan base and also reach out to those who have never read the original series. I really love it when any movie stays true to the original and I hate it when they don't. Sure they might have to make some minor changes due to certain issues, thats a given, but when you go messing with the storyline or the characters, then you have a problem. So, kudos to The Maxx and it's creators. Way to keep it original! I do have to say though that The Maxx is the coolest looking homeless person I have ever seen!
