Media Release -- From acclaimed writer Ron Marz, comes Ani-Max! 12-year old Max Duncan becomes the most powerful boy in the world when he gains the power to absorb the abilities and physical characteristics of any animal he touches. Lost and separated from his family during a vacation in the dense Amazon jungle, Max is chosen by the Earth Spirits as the latest in a long lineage of planetary defenders. Entrusted with a mystical artifact known as the Animus Stone, Max gains the power to absorb the abilities of any animal he touches and transform himself into a human-animal hybrid for seven minutes at a time. Taking on the attributes of lizards, lions, tigers, elephants, spiders, dolphins, and more - sometimes the transformations are gross, weird and bizarre - Max has a power no one else in the world seems to have. Joined by his faithful friends, Chris and Jenny, the three young heroes gradually find a way to use Max's abilities to protect the planet and all its many creatures. Originally created by Sharad Devarajan and Gotham Chopra for television, Ani-Max is now in development as an animated series. Make sure to pick up a copy of Ani-Max this August!
"When I first read the Ani-Max story bible, I thought it was a great concept that would work in a lot of different vehicles, including animation and comics. So I was very happy to get the chance to bring Ani-Max to life as a comic. Working on something that I could enjoy, but also got my kids excited, was an absolute treat."
