I don’t know what you were all expecting, but it probably wasn’t this.

The Legend Of Maxx
A webcomic about friendship, exploration, stupidity and the ongoing battle against evil and also zombies
Wrench> water? Idk
Oh it’s a minecart… on tracks that weren’t there. ..
We all knew it was going to happen some time
Get shreked
It’s got tank treads.
Wow! I thinked that they were Trails.
doesn’t it look like the cart fell from above? If he blurred the treads a little it would look like they were turning making it seem more like it didn’t fall, unless it did fall or is riding the waves
I think it just teleported. Hence the BEEOOW.
no, but the rumbling sound is from the distance, behind Xylan.
That was….. AWESOME!!!!!
This wrench truck dosent seem to stop…It is going to crash Maxx and other NPCs too…
??? is this the drill launcher 2.0?
Woooo, high res glasses !
Nope. I was not expecting that. Great job!
Pixelated Pinkie Pie’s eyes look sort of psychotic. That scares me. Did she hit her head? That would explain the giant wrench in the boat…ummm…what is it?
I love how all of their reactions were different. June needs to be smacked. Hannah needs a raise. Aley and Cyril? Pfff. They need to man up. Or fairy up. Whatever.
Thats the engineer girl person, not confetti girl.
Mechanic*
Party girl*
You are correct. The Party Girl NPC is based off of the MLP character Pinkie Pie, who throws parties and is crazy. I would say the Mechanic (Sofia) has gotten too many electrical shocks from the Wires and other mechanisms she has (she does sell that type of stuff to you in Terraria)
Terraria no longer holds appeal for me.
I would say, it’s Sophia. Shes excited. As always.
either the mechanic is literally the party girl with a PHD in electronics and he just combined them both into 1 insane supernova of crazy, or when and if the party girl DOES show up she’ll meet up with the mechanic and things will get epically nutsoballz crazy hilarious…. i’m not sure which one i’d enjoy more, but i do know that i’d enjoy borth of them about 2000 times more than i enjoy hyrule warriors (which i’m crazy about)
if both the Party Girl and the Mechanic became friends, the Mechanic could help wire up the party lights and other stuff, or they would work together to make a fourth wall breaking confetti-powered Wrench Tank! i like the second option better!
It’s OBVIOUSLY the wrench cannon ver 0.0.0.1.4.7.9.1!
A tank and this is going to cause relationship prombemls with cryil and hanny
Says who? (And don’t say “I said so!”)
NO… I said so!
Well. That was…. Unexpected…
Yeeees…
Whaaaa?
welllllllll… kind of expected them to show up..
but not in a freaking tank!
A wrench tank?
Why, you ask?
BECAUSE WHY THE HELL NOT?!? 😀
YUSSSS!!! That’s my motto you just stated
This is the perfect excuse to anything that asks you about anything unexpected/insane.
PLASMA!!!!! ITS ME COBRA FROM AURORA!!!!!!!!!!!! OH EM GEE!!!! YOU READ THIS TOO?!!??!?!
Did anyone not notice the rumbles until the last panel? 😛
First I was going to say “Hey jesse the Tinkere’s and Mechanic’s sprites are too high and then I realized they were in an epic machine death roller coaster tank car.
I’m guessing that water was from the Aqua Scepter or Waterbolt?
Outcast Buddies, TO THE EXTREME!
i would of liked it it they launched a nuclear/antimatter bomb out of that
It would kill everybody.
You’re saying driving over Xylan with a tank, And just-about-to drive over Maxx and June wouldn’t?
wat… just, wat.
Who else would want a wrench tank like that just to roll around and shoot giant wrenches at random buildings?
The mechanic is pretty much insane,sooo what did you expect.
Who the heck wouldn’t want a gigantic wrench tank?
Me?
Woah… didn’t see that coming.
Brainfart coming in for a landing… It just nuked the city.
^^^Insert censorbar there
I said they’d come I just didn’t know when! I thought they’d enter after the SHANK page. But I guess now is okay!
Whaaaa?!!
Machina ex machina!
Machine by Machine?
Machine from machine, to be precise.
And that is how you kill Xylan. (Maybe?)
YO HOMIES WATS UP. I GET MUCH MONIES @TOTALLYNOTFAKESCAM.COM LAST YEAR I GOT OVER $9000 DOLLARS A MONTH!!!!1111111!!!!!!!!!!!11111!!!
THIS ISN’T A SCAM AT ALL!
AND THIS TOTALLY IS NOT SPAM!
It gets on my nerves when people spam exclamation marks and leave 1’s at the end or anywhere in the spam. It just feels wrong.
YO MAN NO HATE BRO BUT I HATE WHEN PEOPLE GO LIKE B055 5N1P3R5 Y0 L3TT3R5 M1X W1TH NU11B3R5 Y0. IT JUST FEELS WRONG
OT: I can’t believed you resulted to a deus ex machina. I thought there was gonna be an intense duel between Maxx and Xylan. Still a wrench tank is pretty clever. Machina ex Machina I’d say!
Gentlemanly face monsters are better than gangster wannabes.
Dang. I wonder how many injuries took place before they made it.
Lots,man,lots.
awesome work jesse,
i am (probably) the only non terraria playing fan 🙁
probs lots of of injuries to the germanic goblin
wait…. wtf?
about which comment
Yay the mechanic and goblin tinkerer made a reappearance!
in a awesome tank-wernch
Yeah that too.
EVERYBODY LOOK AT THE MECHANIC’S FACE IN THE LAST PANEL!!!!!! XD
she looks totsly phyco
When i saw the Mechanic’s face, it kind of looked like she was yelling “LEROY JENKINS”. Just imagine going Leroy Jenkins with a freaking Wrench Tank!!!
I hate having to type in my email and username every time I post a comment.
Does anyone else agree with that?
mine stays there ?
Then you’re lucky.
No, you’re probably using a crappy browser.
I’m using Chrome, and mine stays there, too?
Mine too.
HE CAN WALK ON WATER!!!
Ermahgurd what the heck!? Lol
oh yea…. xylan is on TOP of the water
He’s Jesus!
Nope, he’s water Elsa.
Jesus Elsa!
Naiad trait bonuses include:
Controlling water
Shooting blue lasers
Walking on water…
…And fabulous hair
And what is the male version of Elsa?
um…
El…. I don’t know.
That movie is WAY too overhyped. I swear I am going to kill the next person who mentions it.
Why can’t you just… let it go?
I’m kidding, though, Frozen isn’t good enough to still be so popular.
FROZENFROZENFROZEN FROZEN <- there ya go
And… um…. I like Frozen.
THE PAST IS IN THE PAAAAAAAST!
oh my god, my ribs broke from so much laughing out loud and WTFing!!! Jesse, you have given me my most laughable moment in my life, nothing can top this!!! I now officially say you have even beat Redigit in Terrarian Epicness
Insert Comment Here
why
jesse,
how long did the water effects take they are the best i’v seen!
Well I guess you could say “I like trains”.
Soooo…..
Xylan is Jesus?
Nope, he’s a naiad and naiads can usually control/use water.
So… Jesus was a naiad?
I said “nope” to Xylan being Jesus, also I was talking about Xylan being a naiad not Jesus.
He’s talking about the “naiads can control/walk on water” part, hence “Jesus was a naiad?”
CAN I GET A HELL YEAH FROM JAISUS
HELL YEAH
ASDF lol
Ahahahahaha, the goblin and mechanic rescuing the hero! Nice!
especaly ironic caus june said dont rescue them
What’s her thing with wrenches, wrench canon, wrench boat, wrenches everywhere, if she’s the one who made the traps I’m surprised that she made them spike balls instead of wrenches attached to chains.
Welcome to wrench world! Made by are founder super obsessed wrench lady. With special attractions such a the famous wrench coaster, Wack a goblin ( with a wrench) the house of pain (including 37 wrench related traps) come on down and increase your medical insurance!
I’ll pay you fifty wrenches to enter
in the game that would be a whole platinum coin
Don’t forget the famous foodplaces, such as McWrench, Wrench King, and Wrench Bell! They all serve Wrench McWrenchetts, Big Wrenchs, and more, all professionally cooked with wrenches ontop of a wooden wrench on fire. That was lit with a wrench.
Um… How did they get out. Last I checked a wrench got stuck in the tinkerer’s head…
They got out using the tank?
How is maxx supposed to even pull it out when he’s surrounded by water?
Even worse he can’t PULL OUT…of June
no
is that a… Wrench-launching tank?
It’s a tank-lauching wrench.
It’s a launch-wrenching-tank-lancher.
YOU LEAVE ME WAITING ALL WEEK AFTER A CLIFFHANGER, AND NOW THIS!?!?!! THIS IS SOMEHOW A BETTER AND WORSE CLIFFHANGER THAN LAST TIME AT THE SAME TIME!!!!
I need a life
Can you try to put the comic back to Mon-Wed-Fri? I obviously can’t handle the stress……..
hahahahaha XD XD XD XD wow thats gota hurt XD
The wrench got a wee bit larger than the last time I saw it
originally, it was a giant wrench, now, it is a TITAN WRENCH
It isn’t April 1st just yet! And why is that wrench enormous?
when you have a problem… use a wrench… if you have a bigger problem… use More Wrench!!!
Meet the Engineer reference, nice, i was probably the only one to notice that
They must have fed it tons of rare candy to get to the 3rd evolution…
Crud, replied to the wrong post x~X
If you can dodge a wrench tank you can dodge a ball. Clearly Xylan was bad at dodgeball as a kid.
Sofia and Tinkerer are back! YAY
Lol first time I saw June’s shocked face
I would like to humbly state that I did indeed predict this in the last comic’s comments. The tinkerer and Sophia needed to be tied in, and we’ve been in the dungeon just long enough that this practically had to be the moment.
And I love it. Keep up the great work!
Huh…well, I think it’s safe to say that I did not see that coming o.o
(Great comic, Jesse! XD Definitely laughed out loud for this one!)
Wow June laughed
Xylan is not having a good day, I think.
Pixelated pinkie pie? I need to make that in a pixel art studio!!!
Panel 4: panel does not contain a Wrench-Tank Lap Dance
The wrench got a super size
Like, when the first time we see it, it was a Human-sized wrench and now, it’s a giant wrench more than 2 peeps standing up each other
The Wrench Cannon got an upgrade.
Don’t forget Cyril’s hydrophobia!
OMG!!!!! FREAKIN TANK!!!!!!! YAY DOCTOR FAILSALOT!
it’s like murica **** yeah but with terraria also OMG WTF THATS AWESOME
as a side note, the NPCs in the legend of maxx are infinitely more useful than they are in the game, jesse you should really make a mod or ask a modder to make a mod making the npcs useful/hilarious like they are in this comic. (totally not a wall of text
I think Rosenblack(?) made a mod for LoM
It’s not a tank, it’s a armoured personnel carrier. (APC)
DUHHHHH
well that Wrench Tank could definitely take care of Xane if he shows up again before they all leave the Dungeon (and Skeletron too, if Jesse decides to ever use that boss in the comic). June may have plot armor and deadly anger management problems, but the Sofia the Mechanic has pyscho armor and a freaking Wrench Tank.
Aley, why haven’t you done a Fairy Death Laser (BWEEEEEEM) in a while?
Nobody expected this… then again, who in their right minds would have expected this?
I just don’t know how, but i was EXPECTING that the next comic would have something with the mechanic and the goblin tinkerer in it
IT’S THE WRENCH TANK, VER. 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1! Just wait for ver 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.2! Of course, it will be much better at ver 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.9.1.2.5!
I’m sorry, but in a situation like this, you’re only allowed a maximum of 3 “.”s.
Am I the only person who anticipated Xane to rush in riding a giant, laser shooting gecko?
wooo… mechanic made another death machine!
Terraria 1.3 new mount confirmed:
Wrench-mobile.
Actually, there’s a weird flying digging mount in 1.3, it digs like twice as fast as the shroomite claw it looks like from the picture.
But it’d be cool if there was a mount with an attack… like a wrench tank that fires… wrenches!
ITS NOT A TANK!!!! ITS A ARMORED PERSONNEL CARRIER!!@!! (APC)
sorry, it is just that some people don’t know what an APC is. Plus, Wrench Tank sounds way more catchy than Wrench APC.
…Wrench APC sounds like you are destroying a computer with a wrench, i just realized that.
Yes but… Wrench APC is the correct term.
Wrench-a-PC?
if this was TF2 it would upgrade it! #engineer #sentry/teleporter/dispenser
That is possibly the best thing ever.
Xylan wag gonna die anyway. 😀
xD
Wow, I just opened up Terraria, and in the top corner it said ‘Terraria: Legend of Maxx’
Red is actually confirmed for lurking this. The Hammush is in the game, after all.
Yeah, I knew about the hammush obviously, but that’s the first time I’ve noticed this. Also, in a Terraria mod called NTerraria, there’s another reference to LoM. It’s a quote from a rabbit NPC that says “There is a legend that on another world, a guide has used Rabbit Storm skill.” (He teleports you between worlds, so this makes sense actually.)
That’s pretty cool!
THE QUESADILLAMOBILE
And absolutely no one saw the giant wrench-minecart-tank speeding straight at them? Or do these characters see things in a limited third-person box as we do?
Wrench on steroids
The wrench cannon 2.0! Now portable in a tread tank.
BTW Jesse: Machina is pronounced ma-kee-na right? My friend doesn’t believe it and he reads the comic and my comments.
I’m pretty sure that’s how it’s pronounced.
Y isn’t Xylan bleeding or anything? He seems perfectly fine.
(Unless… HE HAS WATERBENDING POWERS AND CAN HEAL HIMSELF WITH WATER!!!)
Legend of Xylan anyone?
I dreamt of this the very day this was released, then I finally see the comic today, and lookie here, we got a wrench tank.
UMMMMMM!!! IS THAT BLUE FIRE DISPELLED FROM A WRENCH?
I’m excited for the next one Jesse!
Or is the bluefire dispelled from the Wrench Tank?? idk anymore
Jesus he can walk on water the crazy menanic eyes
I would like to see more fighting from Maxx. There is a lot of power being used in this story by NPCs, people that, according to Remiel, are by their very natur limited in their ability to shape world around them. Don’t get me wrong, I love the story and the characters, but I think it has a bit too much emphasis on the sidekicks. Maxx is the hero, the ‘chosen one,’ and yet I have very little idea of what he can do outside of swinging a sword. As a Player Character, he is supposed to be able to change the world around him and his actions have been prophesized to lead either the salvation or destruction of this world, yet he gets the least amount of screentime of the current party of heroes.
I’m not asking you to nerf any of the other characters, so please don’t do that. Instead, I think we need to see a lot more of the guy whose legend this comic is named after. 😉
I agree. Thank you for voicing my thoughts.
Although I’m thinking it would be weird if Maxx just suddenly started acting like a mature little Steve Rogers. So it should happen slowly. Character development!!! 😀
I never said he had to be mature about it.
Well, you know, all WE do in Terraria is swing a sword around, but we don’t get sidekicks… though in a mod I found (and already mentioned) called NTerraria, you can have sidekicks, though they’re stupid and buggy.
Untrue. There is a vast arsenal of melee, ranged, and magical armaments available to the player, especially in 1.2. Granted, most of it is out of Maxx’s grasp since he hasn’t beaten the Wall of Flesh, yet.
I’m not saying Maxx can’t stop with the swird-swinging, though. I just wanna see more of him.
And sorry for the typos, have to use my phone to type here and my keypad skill is vastly inferior to my keyboard skill. A typo here and there is bound to get past me.
Wow was not expecting that xD Hey at least Xane (or is that the other one?) got a bath. Maybe now June will be happy 😀
It was Xylan. Xane hasn’t showed up since he got hit with the dirtplane.
The Latin would be machina ex deo.
Mentioned Legend Of Maxx in my youtube Vid!
thought it would be A Tank.
GIGA……..WRENCH………….BRRREEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It seems more like a carrier then a tank
Your late with the next comic…

xKing_Xylan_415x was turned into roadkill by Mechgrl♥’s Wrench Tank.
GET REKT XYLAN
HEY!
How come Xylan is perfectly fine with absolutely no indication that he was stabbed no hole no blood stain
Still, how did Xylan even use water magic with A GAPING HOLE IN HIS CHEST?
I have a Band of Regeneration.
Owie.
Is it safe to assume that Xylan got double-double-double crossed? Or triple crossed? Double-double-double crossed is safe to assume, thank me later.
Xylan just got quickdropped
FIRE.
THE.
WRENCH CANNON.
I guess I gotta REEOOW.
Am I the only who is going to ask of what’s become of Xylan?
I’m a Naiad for life 🙂
