In which Gus gets bribed with hot meals and usage of his real name.
Thanks for your patience for the last little while, everyone. I’d like to say that the comic is starting up for realsies again, but the real truth is this: I’m going to be travelling to Asia very soon for a number of months, and won’t be able to keep the comic up in that time. So, it’s going to be a while before The Legend of Maxx is back to stay; probably not until this fall.
I know you’re disappointed, and there’s nothing I’d like better than to be able to keep the comic running smoothly, but I can’t put my other plans aside for its sake. That being said, I plan on keeping in touch with all of you as much as I can while I’m gone. Expect frequent tweets and hopefully some content going up on the site– probably nothing as ambitious as new comics, but content nonetheless.
If you’re worried about the future of The Legend of Maxx, don’t be! I have no plans to end the comic for good. It’s just that when I started the comic, I was a student with little else on his mind than passing my classes and playing video games; in those circumstances it was easy to keep things going. Now I’ve hit a bit of a transitionary phase of my life, and everything is up in the air. Once I’ve settled down I’ll be able to commit to my projects more easily.
Thanks so much to everyone who’s gone out of their way to send me tweets and emails asking how I’m doing or telling me how much they like the comic! You guys are great, and the reason why I started making these comics in the first place.

New comic!
I got the notice, but comments were locked. Oh well, I couldn’t give Vimplegürger his sophia-phobia survival tips.
Rip In Potato, Gus.
Pimpleburger*
finally, a new comic. i was getting impatient. … gg Jesse…..gg.
—{=====>
also, aley, how do you use that site in which you create your “gravatar”?
Hey Jesse, what do you have on your hardmode character?
Perfect timing to have a comic on my bday! So good to see Legend back up and running again. Thank you Jesse! (loved the comic!)
Wow, that was a long time coming! I’m just so glad to see a new comic! *sigh* life is back to normal…
Noo, but I wanted him to be Doctor von Gus. But anyways, have fun (or do work) in Asia!
Oh, and will there still be occasional comics? Like whenever you have time, or are you unable to do it at all while you’re there?
I highly doubt I’ll have the time or ability to make comics while I’m gone, but I plan on sharing as many pictures and anecdotes as possible.
Where are U going in Asia?
Cheerios and Fruit Loops. Didn’t know they had those in Terreria. :3
I totally understand, please take your time. And have fun! I’ve always wanted to go to Asia.
Wrench-proof lock. What every goblin with Sophiaphobia needs. XD
I’m beingk looking forward to zee fall! Have a good summer!
To me, Cheerios taste the same as fruit loops. If not better. Doctor von Vimplegurger, however, iz not beingk of ze same opinion.
Thanks, Astrid!
I’m used to the hardcore Cheerios that taste like washers made of cardboard if you don’t put anything else on them, so Froot Loops were always coveted in my household. A good way to cheat the system is to mix one part Froot Loops with five parts Cheerios– the flavor of the Froot Loops is so strong that you’d think you were eating a bowl full of them.
Anyway.
Jesse you hack at life. Ps.genuis!
i live in asia XD

Welcome back Jessie! I hope you had a nice break!
Have fun in Asia!

The new angle kinda makes the doctor look like an octopus.
You are ALIVE! Great comic by the way… wonder why they forget about Gurg so quickly (I think it was Gurg anyway).
I think it was grog…?
…I hate these jokes…
No, it was Grag
Gurk? Grop? Gale? Gray? GOO?!?!
Grurb? Sgrog? Gay? G?
…
I think it’s Sgrub, im sure 0f it.
gpotato? gtoybonnie? gredgit? gmod? gwhatsitcalledagain?
God, I love these characters.
Who was Smog, again?
Oh many,a wrench proof lock, LOL.
Is that possible?
It’s great to have you back, Jesse! Have fun flying to Asia!
ERMAGERSH A NEW LEGEND OF MAXX!
Nah. Wrench-proofing isn’t enough. You need Bunker-like properties of a door, Doctor Von Vimplegürger, I mean Gus.
why have the comments stopped on the old comics?
Too much spam, The question is if Jesse will unlock them again.
Oh! XD I thought the comment section just sort of gave up after a Thousand comments!
Lucky! I wish I could go to Asis! >3> But anyway, I don’t know how easy it will be to make a democracy in a goblin town…
what took so long????
yay! a new comic!
i hope that your flight goes well, and that everything turns out fine!
I have some fan art. http://moonblade138.deviantart.com/art/Aley-508470163
There are ones for all the characters if you look for them.
wow! she made all of those? they are really good
She made them on this: http://www.azaleasdolls.com/game_mega-anime.html
Hey Epic, those are great! I actually got your email before but never got around to replying to it. Thank your sister for me!
You forgot the B.O.B.F.L. bracelets on Sophia and Doctor Von Vimplegurger.
WAIT U 4GOT CYRIL
I hope we at least get another comic by the end of tomorrow.
Ooh! What are you going to Asia for? Job? Extended sightseeing? Working on your next book?
Despite how little sense it makes I hope it’s the latter because I really want to read Loria 2. Or I guess Book Two of the Tower Series? Is there a title yet? Will there be another signing?
Such questions!
Sightseeing is definitely the name of the game for this trip. My second book is on its way! I don’t want to give any concrete dates yet since release is still a ways off, but the process is underway! And I’ll definitely organize another signing if I can.
Does Vimplegurger actually mean anything, or is it just pseudo-German?
Omg. Am I dead? Is this.. A new comic?! 😮 Holy mother jesus of christ! Guys, bring the booze, bring the food, and bring music! We’re gonna have a party!
I should have said Holy jesus christ on a pogo stick. But on Jesse’s world, what has be done cannot be undone
Jesse, where in Asia are you going to?
I love the use of the extra K’s and the Ze instead of the. Nice touch.
As usual your work is amazing Jesse!
Smurg is a great leader. I can see goblin kind becoming quite advanced with his leadership.
I wanna be a goblin now
I can see Link becoming even more advanced in the LoZ series. Or maybe they’ll add playable Zelda like they did in SSB.
So his name is Doctor Von Vimplegürger? Nice name.
have a good trip jesse. You will be missed.
Oh swell i can wait! bones dont decay 😀
Yes they do
How do u create your gravitar
I think Sophia is one of the Djiin (or whatever they’re called)
Genie. Thats a Genie your talking about.
I think he did mean Djinn, remember, those people who control like 1/4 of the Terrarian world.
Basically the people who control fire itself and could literally burn anything flammable, including us.
Bones&
bony bone nones yum bonez
i like ze bones
zer zery um
i feel idiotic….
You are a Dog!…. Apparently?.
What did the lox say ,no…….ok
Good luck with everything! We’ll [im?]patiently await the comic’s full return.
Doubtful that a wrench proof door will put a wrench in her plans I’m sure.
Why are you going to Asia?
His name is Von Vimplegurger, not Gus.
It’s good to be back after checkin Jesse’s Twitter 20 times a day. Plus I think jesse’s potery skils have improved. I wonder how goblin town is going to turn out. And final comment ,*takes a deep breathe in.WHERES CRYIL AND HAS JUNE DRAGED HIM A LONG WITH THEM! *gasps for air. K glad I got that out of my system. Ps. What idot said something stupid to make Jesse lock commenting
Good work as usual 😀
FINALLY it’s here.
yea. that took a while.
Fan Comic!
Now how do I insert them?
Anyone here that Jesse will never end the comic for good
It has to end.. eventually.
What happens when Maxx eventually completes his quest, hm?
Well, I’m sad that we won’t have Maxx & Co for a (possible very long) while, but I’m also glad for you, Jesse, so I hope you have a great time while in Asia and come back with lotsa photos and stories to tell us, right? Now I just have to hope Adventure Time won’t end in the mean time ;-;
Von Vimplegurger eh? that’s an… interesting last name
yes it is… OR IS IT DUN DUN DDDUUUNNNN
…(i got nothing)
You look like a briefcase
This is a very MLG comic, good work Jesse!
FINALLY NEW COMIC!!!
The mechanic is too crazy. I liked how innocent she seemed in the beginning comics with her, especially when Gus actually felt (or at least looked) sorry for her after hearing how long she has been trapped in the cell for.
I know the Nadia is going to come back and mug June’s face *rubs a mug all over June’s face
Who’s Nadia again?
Read the earlier comics
No, you learn to write.
YES FInALLY A NEW ONE
(a wrench proof lock? i can see something like this happened: after the … tinkerer, forgot his name sorry, finally gets away from sophia for a minute locks himself away and says he will not come if sophia comes with them. max tries to break the door with a sword he “found” and ends up breaking it, hannah tries to reason with him, cyril tries a spell to do something to the door and ends up putting a rabbit in front of it, aley tries to bribe with ale, all lead to failure but only when june is about to use dirt to break it down sophia steps in and says “let me handle it. step aside.” flashily swings her wrench at the door, hits the knob once, and opens the door to a surprised tinkerer. is commended yet didn’t even think that would work. can totally see that as something that may have happened.)
Gus/Doctor Von Vimplegurger is the name of the Goblin Tinkerer.
Hello, Jesse! Name’s LordSkeleborg, but you can call me LSB. I’d just like to suggest that if you could, try and put other Chosen Ones in the story too! You could put in a Chosen One who could be Maxx’s long lost sister, Maxx’s parents, a long lost brother of Maxx, etc. And they could like Maxx, just, not as stupid as him.
Buy, all in all, keep up the good work!
It wouldn’t make sense to have these characters though! Remember that Maxx is a player character. He kinda doesn’t have any parents or siblings.
Also, does anyone think that the Gossamer Sword looks like the Keybrand from the actual game when you defeat Plantera in Hardmode?
Correction: in the Hardmode Dungeon, when you defeat Plantera in Hardmode.
Oh, and I forgot to mention this, but I’m actually doing a bit of a Fanfic to The Legend Of Maxx, or, TLOM, as I like to call it. I’m including my Terrarians in it to help Maxx, and the start of the first chapter is when Remiel takes Ina away from Cyril, but in the Fanfic, he fails and gets defeated by my OCs.
Actually we skipped

I love the whole “wrench proof lock on my door bit” made me laugh.
On the previous comment, Xyvane is mispelled Xygvane. Just an FYI.
gud cmic
Hey it’s me Jeff, the corrupted wizard!
Good comic btw.
