DAAANG
Well that didn’t go very well… up until the point where it did, that is. Seems like Cyril will be the one to save the day for once! It certainly needed saving.
While the trope can be overused sometimes, I enjoy having the heroes get beaten up every once in a while, even by someone who’s not the main villain. It shows that their plot armor isn’t completely impervious… and the honest truth is that plot armor is often way, way too strong.
I can’t believe that The Legend of Maxx is now over two years old and 400 comics long!! Looking back, I can’t believe everything that’s come of me dabbling around in Paint and posting (honestly pretty terrible) comics on the Terraria Online forums. Hundreds of comics, a video series and some other awesome fan content, an item in Terraria, a wiki, subreddit, and TvTropes entry… and of course a dedicated and awesome following! As always, I mean it when I say thank you, thank you, thank you to all of you who supported the comic through creating the content I mentioned above, or just visiting the site and dropping a comment every now and then. You’ve made The Legend of Maxx what it is!
Thanks again, everyone, and please– spread the word if you know someone who might like the comic! The more the merrier, and the more fans the comic has, the farther I’ll be able to push it!
See you Friday!

Rabbit Smash wins the game

reb furd = best furd
I beat the heck out of them…. Then a rabbit storm beats me…. I can’t belive I lost that way… Or DID i? Dun dun duuuuuuun!!!
Wait a minute how did maxx bounce back into the air after I sliced him down?
Wait have you noticed that your eyes change colour depending on which weapon you are using? So red sword= 2 red eyes, blue sword = 2 blue eyes, and red & blue sword = 1 red and 1 blue eye!
Boom! You’ve been bunnynated! That’s awesome of Cyril! I wonder if that guy is still dead though.
Whaaaaa
CHUBBY BUNNY
8998, chubby bunny 8999, chubby bunny, 9000, chubby bunny…
WHATS THE POWER LEVEL OF THE CHUBBY BUNNY?
OVER 9000!!!
When a comic doesn’t load properly on mobile, you know it’s got to be a good one… TO THE PC!
Exactly what I had to do.
I had to do that for comic 399 1/2
Are you saying that that wasn’t really good?
Yes
:O
I was not disappointed.
Rabbit storm.
RABBIT STORM.
This is brilliant.
I love the part where Xane gets crushed by the giant rabbit! LMAO.
Rabbit storm… RABBIT STORM?! IT’S BUNNY STORM!!!!!!
Rabbit-
Much Larger, More Powerful Version of the bunny
BUT THE BUNNIES!
They’re rabbits, dude. Wabbits.
“What’s up, doc?”
I know they’re rabbits, I was just complaining that it’s not a bunny storm.
Such wabbit
A bunny and a rabbit are the same thing. No difference. For me saying rabbit sounds more mature, but that is just me.
They are not the same thing….
Yes they are.
A hare and A Bunny/Rabbit are different but not Rabbit and Bunny (Though I Don’t wanna be That Guy you know what I’m,,, oh wait)
same here
was anyone else hoping this would be June’s return
Yah, i really was.
Its been way too long
June’s done for good dude,
I was hoping for tyrone…
Was that supposed to be a pun? 😀

Xane: It’s official: you suck!
this comic is great and i love it you have inspired me to create a comic
Thanks very much! I hope to see it someday!
I was thinking of making a Terraria comic with the Angler earlier, actually. XD
Not a series, though.
By the way Jesse, have you considered remaking the banner yet, to add the new sword sprites and characters?
…Speaking of swords, something’s been bugging me; the ‘fourth sword’ was technically added to the game, but since it wasn’t around when Jesse added that plot element, a different fourth sword was created. Makes me wonder what the role of the Crimson Sword will be.
Actually, the Blood Butcherer in regular Terraria just serves as an alternate of the Light’s Bane, it’s not a “fourth” sword. Within LoM lore, the Bane is like a base dough of the Night’s Edge, so the Blood Butcherer would probably have had the same role if Jesse had introduced that plot element then.
it would be cool if he got stuck in another universe that was Crimson tainted rather than Corrupt tainted and he had to get the Blood Butcherer in order to escape that universe.
Yeah, the current idea is that the Night’s Bane is imbued with the power of the four swords, so five are actually required. No existing sword really matches (or did match) the theme of air or the fairies, so I invented the Gossamer Sword 🙂
You could have gone with the Starfury. I mean it is found in the Sky Islands, which is about as airy as you can get.
Isn’t it *Light’s* Bane not Night’s Bane?
…Yes, yes it is.
The Starfury was a candidate, but it still didn’t fit entirely with what I wanted… it seemed more spacey than airy to me. Maybe once I explain the lore behind the Gossamer Sword it’ll make more sense 🙂
also what programs do you use to make this
http://legendofmaxx.com/about
The interdimensional portal where bunnies pour out! My wish has been granted! Thank you Jesse!
what, bunny storm? why not fire? or ice?
or boost maxx’s stats to over 9000?
Because that is not funny
To understand life, you must understand humor.
[sarcasm]Because an old, overused meme is TOTALLY funnier than Bunny Storm.[/sarcasm]
Bring me up to speed. What is rabbit storm?
A while ago there was a comic where Cyril first learned magic. His first practice was making a bunny appear out of thin air. After that, people wanted him to cast an spell that involved bunnies, eventually becoming known as Bunny Storm.
Rabbit storm, not bunny storm.
All rabbit are bunnies, but not all bunnies are rabbits.
RABITCEPTION!!
this = so true
I get it now.
it happens in a former comic page
I knew it. I knew Cyril would unleash a barrage of bunny.
I also knew Maxx would be 100% unable to lay a hit on Xane.
Can someone mod rabbit storm in!
Yeah!! Totally!!
i thought maxx would just shoot xane in the head
With what
The musket that June still has on her unless it was handed back or thrown away, obviously. ;D
eppiiiicc!
Well, that escalated quickly.
Wow. I was not expecting that.
Where did Hannah go in the last panel? Was she crushed? Was she flung? FIND OUT IN THE NEXT EPISODE OF THE LEGEND OF MAXX
shhhh thats behind the scenes! she will probably just teleport to her feet with the classic bandage on her and a couple cartoony bruises.
She was still in the area, but I didn’t want to complicate the action or worry fans by making it look as though she was about to get Rabbit Stormed along with Xane.
You could go by the excuse that a shockwave flung her away, since you made a visible shockwave sort of thing under the giant rabbit as it landed.
thats what i was thinking
I wonder how many bunnies are going to come out of that portal.
Wow. It looks like Max is going to have to get serious and get to training after this. Now we know that Aley isn’t a win button. It was unexpected for Aley to jump in like that, or for Aley to get countered. Also, it looks like Cyril still might have feelings for Hanny! <3
Also, I’m curious if the megabunny is going to be a character with its own personality. It looks like it could be.
The flower tells Cyril to use his magic, and that instantly means he still likes Hannah? It doesnt make sense.
Nah, it’s the whole enemy threatens X’s loved one, said threat causes X’s balls to drop and save the day(Seeing as how Xane was clearly going after Hannah)
hE MEANS HE DECIDED TO USE HIS MAGIC AFTER HE SAW XANE COMING AFTER HANNY GOT TOTTALED
There should be a first person game version of these comics, it’d be pretty badass…
…what?
Hmm. I noticed that in panel #24 that Xane’s right eye is redish orange. Does that have to do with his orange and red dagger, and his purple/blue blade?
I believe his eye turns red when he uses his “special move”. Also, it totally reminded me of the scene Sephiroth kicks Cloud’s butt in the Final Fantasy movie xD
Yep, like Mr. Stuff says below, I was trying to channel the video-gamey ‘finisher move’ idea with that panel 🙂 Xane’s eyes in that panel keep changing depending on which sword he’s striking with 🙂
I noticed that and thought it really neat. nice idea!
Hmm 400 and still has 1 out of 4 swords which means theres probably going to be 1600 comics isnt that just nice
Why shouldnt it be?
We dont want this to end, do we?
😀
Who said it has to end after night’s edge? Mabe june had the story wtong and the terra blade fixes corruption and un-purifies hallow. It makes more sense.
2 out of 4 swords.
Jesse’s going to update the banner when Maxx & company win the Muramassa, right?
Once the characters get the next sword it will come up on the title or cover
happy 400th Jesse! (hopefully not your 400th birthday) great way to end that fight! somebody call Red and tell him what should be and WILL BE added to Terraria… The Rabbit (or bunny) Storm!
Great work Jesse!
Did not even see the giant bunny’s face until now XD lets name that bunny Bruno Bunnytings.
You can’t beat the bunny storm. No way, nuh uh.
How many new sprite’s did you have to make now? It seems like a lot.
Say, why isn’t maxx dead? He hasn’t used a heart crystal, and I remember when I started playing, dying all the time without a heart crystal to save my lives.
He’s used one
Nope! He instantly decided to break it open and eat one half, giving the other half to Cyril, but Cyril refused his, showing Maxx the instructions on the crystal heart. they said “Hoist one heart up in a magical ritual as needed”, NOT eat it.
I feel horrible that I can not think of a pun relating to bunnies or rabbits… dangrabbit…
I’m sure no one is going to carrot that I couldn’t think of anything. Or well… puns that were good at any rate.
I don’t think that was at all bunny… err… punny… though I get the feeling that someone might say otherwise.
Does it bug anyone else that Maxx is still using the old Blade of Grass Sprite?
No, because the new one is terrible.
No. In fact, the new sprite looks terrible IMO, so good on Jesse for rejecting it’s horrible-ness.
(Plus, better for continuity if he doesn’t change the look of the sword.)
I can’t believe that joke actually happened. Heh.
OK this has got to be the funniest comic in the entire series.
This is a comic about how I feel when I fight Shadow in Sonic Chronicles.
Also I noticed Maxx got stabbed in the chest.
THIS IS BLIGHT
don’t worry hes playing softcore
Unlike every other hero…?
I KNEW IT YES YES YES!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOObunnysOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOsad face 🙁
why u die on us maxx?!
He didn’t, He’s just badly injured.
YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
Thx jesse/im a friggin’ oracle
MEDUSA BUNNEGH!
OMG BUNNY STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORM!
Finally!
Remiel would own xane.
No he wouldn’t. He would be to slow. WAY to slow.
Wow! Congratulations on 400 comics Jesse!
RABBIT STORM! Jesse is now the best ever.
😀
cyril go get aley and revive maxx now!
you can do it
you can do it
i believe in you
i believe in CYRIL
Hana can just heal everyone can’t she?
Hey are you actually related to someone here?
That “Lets Go!” seems to be a finisher from a classic fight game.
Is Xane partially based off of Lloyd?
Which Lloyd?
“Aaugh, bunnies! My only weakness!”
So… What mage is cyril? Red? Summoner? Blue? Black?
I’ll see what I can do about getting Rabbit Storm in Terraria Avalon…

happy 400th jesse! Rabbit Storm! yay!
This comic makes you wonder if maxx is really playing on hardcore, or if he was just beaten to near death.
I’m not sure if the fight’s over.. maybe the giant bunny (which I named Bruno Bunnytings) just paralyzed Xane or put him out of the fight for a couple panels.
Then again Bruno Bunnytings is pretty hefty…
Looks like Lepus found his way into LoM
Well…. then say hello to creepy bunnies!!
There should definitely be a naiad who has discovered Cyril’s weakness, and summons and infects bunnies. Then at the end, before he dies, he uses his last bit of energy to summon lepus, the bane of all bunnies.
But Lepus is really easy to kill.
Well then he’ll summon chubby bunny to take his place.
Lol
Diggersby tho!
Diggersby tho? Diggersby tho…
RABBIT STORM! THIS IS THE ULTIMATE SHOWDOWN OF ULTIMATE DESTINY!
Also obligatory Happy 400th Comic, Jesse!
You did not dissapoint.
Support!! Congrats Jesse. I’ll keep reading until after the series is done.
Great work Cyril!
The bunny god thing is now pooping on Xane. Yay.
Oookk…
Well, looks like Cyril reached level five when I wasn’t looking. Really cool comic Jesse! I always love coming back here and seeing a new page of the epicness that is this comic.
ITS A Rabcopocalypse!
Also that Rabbit Storm summon thingy looks like Its from Final Fanasty
Great comic as always Jesse! ^ ^ The poses are great…I know how hard it is to make 3d-ish poses in a 2d game like this. You put a lot of effort into your comics and I appreciate that! Also I love bunny storm. 😀
What did I say?
Xane IS fast enough to dodge Aley’s BWEEEEEN.
I am sorry, but I don’t like this comic.
It’s too dangerous for me.
Right now, you almost killed me with laughter.
…
So, yah, I was joking in the start, I love this comic. Especially expression on the bunny’s face.
What is wrong with Xanes eyes? Does their colour change depending on which dagger he uses?
I was thinking the same thing
Rabbit storm as new magic item…. plox? red?
Or a Rabbit Staff that summons Bunnies to attack your enemies?
I would love that. It would go well with my Bunny Mount in the game.
That bunny’s face though…
Nobody can prepare for the bunny storm!
It was so funny did you use the disaster bunny but just made it look white Jesse
No, he didn’t, the “disaster bunny” or Lepus looks a lot different to that bunny.
It’s just a really fat giant bunny
THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!
hahahahaha that was awesome
Congratulations cyral, you’re a level 5 wizard!
The lack of June is disturbing…
LOL! DEATH BY NINJA BUNNYYYYYYY. That was hilarious. Its raining bunnies… When the dark portal opened up I had no idea what was gonna come out of it. Now I do. And we know what bunny storm is now!
Bunny Storm 2G4U!
The biggest bunny was like——->(I’m to fab mkay!)
too*
THE SUSPENSE!!!!
maxx is gonna hop up and go “that was fun lets do it again”
But he is badly injured, if he does it again he will probably die.
I thought June would jump in and fight Xane because he could have possibly… wait did I already say this?
IM Calling The Bunny Didn’t Kill Him, And June Comes And Saves The Day.Brown Rages.
this was referenced back like 100 comics ago, back when flower was first teaching cyril. flower said “you don’t reach rabbbit storm till level 5”
I guess Cyril is level five or whatever.
100 comics ago (if you don’t count the half comic from monday) was Xane’s arrival to the comics but you’re right (does that means that Cyril gains XP points just by walking?)
Maybe off-cam Cyril was using the vikings as an XP farm, or using the mannequin in the treasure room (the one with the pharaoh costume) as a training dummy.
Welp, if my Terraria character was in here, he’d probably be a naiad.
Except he has turtle armor. Which would make him not a naiad.
So I guess he would just be a heavily-armored and armed assassin, seeing as he moves at extremely high speeds and wreaks havoc in general.

WE LIVE IN DONUTS!
Good Job, Jesse! Keep up the work! I see if i can make Xane statue!
Extremely awesome pwn
I now have a newly found fear and respect for Cyril. And sympathy for aley.
Hey, Jesse, I have a question. Does the Demolition have a Scottish accent as a funny reference to TF2’s Demoman, or because he looks kinda Scottish?
I have a connection, Xane could have a clone, as in panel 23 Xane’s eye color changes depending on which sword he’s using. Or is it just a small detail that has no real significance?
When did cyril reach level 5?
AAAAWWWWEEESSSOOOMMMEEEEE GO CYRIL
Tuesday
Ok,time for a pokemon thing. Xane used Kick! It was quite effective. Xane used Slash! Maxx blocked! Hannah used Arrow! Xane blocked! Hanna and Maxx used Slash! Xane blocked! Xane used Escape! Xane used Slice! It was very effective. Xane used Kick! It was effective. Xane used Finisher! Maxx dodged! Maxx used Slash! Xane dodged! Aley used Fairy laser! Xane resisted! Xane used Grab! It was super effective! Hannah has fainted! Xane used Kick! It was effective! Xane used Shank! It was mega effective! Xane used Stab! It was mega effective! Xane used Slice! It was effective! Xane used Slash! It was super effective! Maxx has fainted! Xane gained 400 XP! Cyril used Rabbit Storm! It was effective!
If “Rabbit Storm” was a real spell, I would use it
DAD IS THAT YOU
Yeah, plot armor is op. How do I craft it?
The sad thing is, no matter what, the main main character (repetition intended) will not die until at least the FINAL BOSS is dead. THEn, he can (and likely will) die.
