Hey Dave, this one is not a double-rez at all anymore. It's actually super-low-rez now! What happened?

2020-02-06 22:05:47 +0000 UTCI find it interesting that it *mostly* breaks along the hexagons, but the parts in the foreground are much more irregular. Perhaps it was damaged when it came to Earth and that's why it affected Max?

2016-04-15 15:17:57 +0000 UTCYeah it's supposed to look different on the inside. That's how she recognized it.

2016-04-15 15:15:42 +0000 UTCHmm. Did you decide against drawing the pointy bits on a normal geode, or is it some kind of ultratech artifact, hence it being filled with hexagons? ...And for some time, it's been in the hands of your friendly neighborhood genius megalomaniac nerd.

2016-04-15 15:06:00 +0000 UTCI never imagined... I thought she was born a super like the others...

2016-04-14 21:22:35 +0000 UTC... now I need to go get on Champions Online and see if I can create a character named Goldyboostyblasty Strengthflightarmor. :P

2016-04-14 16:39:28 +0000 UTCMaxima was originally named Ultima, but I kept thinking of her in situations where she had to max out her speed/armor/etc, so switching her name made sense. That led me to her first name of Maximilia (previously she didn't have one as it was still early days in her lifespan as a character) so it's fair that her name is slightly related to her powers. If her name was on the level of Telford Porter though, her name would have to be Goldyboostyblasty Strengthflightarmor.

2016-04-14 15:52:08 +0000 UTCGiven that Dave has said Maxima was named because she was a "minmax", I just assumed that was her superhero name. Finding out it is also her real name lends more theory to the "Telford Porter" notion that in superhero books, powered people are just serendipitously named.

2016-04-14 14:11:29 +0000 UTCSo that's why Maxima likes Halo: They both got their powers by accident in young adulthood.

2016-04-14 12:03:14 +0000 UTCNice! I wouldn't have thought of that for Max's powers!

2016-04-14 11:47:25 +0000 UTCEek indeed! Good twist!
Ted Hobgood
2016-04-14 11:35:43 +0000 UTCEeek. Wasn't expecting that!
Stuart Hemming
2016-04-14 10:10:32 +0000 UTCWas not expecting to get Max's origin! Oooooh!
