Maxim is one of the three wild Jägermonsters who help Agatha and friends in all manner of combat situations (combat, after all, being what Jägermonsters are good for). He is the one with a purplish complexion and small but prominent fangs. He's also the one who contributes his hat (Jägers prize hats greatly) to commemorate the passing of the late Lars. Maxim, along with Ognian and Dimo, seems to answer directly to Jenka.
Introduced here, as Master Payne's Circus of Adventure gets ready for a performance in the town of Zumzum.
He uses a sword in battle, augmented by some sort of prosthetic arm/glove. Official reports state that he was formerly a cavalry officer.
[edit] Trivia
At San Diego Comic Con 2008, one lucky fan (dressed in a fantastic Maxim costume) got the chance to sit down with the Professors and have a Q&A about the character and about Jägers in general. She kindly passed along the answers.[1] Some things we learn about Maxim are...
- The Foglios never decided what Maxim's metal arm thing was. It just looks cool.
- Maxim was born when Phil Foglio drew a funny sketch of a bishounen Jäger to entertain Kaja. She loved it so much, she insisted on making him a regular character in the comic.
- There's a chance we may see a mini comic about Maxim getting a new hat!
- At 250-300 years old, Maxim is the youngest of the the wild Jäger trio.
