Max Hound Comics

The Max Hound Comics are a series of American comics of varying mediums based on Max Hound Studios' popular Max cartoons, created and released between 2010 and 2019. The identity of the original artists of the comic strips currently remains unknown.
== History ==
Max and his friends were first adapted into a comic strip in late 2010, under the premise that Max is a fry cook working at a Fast-Food Joint alongside the other characters. Two subplots in the comic strips include Samantha Heavenhound being portrayed as a singer who has made a name for herself as an entertainer in her own right, and Edgar Terrance being an introverted person who hates his job.
In 2019, due to the repercussions of the Cornonavirus Pandemic, much of the United States had fallen into an immense state of anguish, to the point where they did not want to be reminded of their destitution, ultimately resulting in the Max Hound comic strip being canceled.
The following year, the Bendy comics were resurrected in the format of more traditional "Dime Store" type comics. unlike the comic strips, these comics had varying plots and situations, as opposed to a single plot as depicted in the aforementioned comic strips. Max was depicted as a prankster with an occasional charitable side (mostly catering to those who have treated him nicely in the past). Charley Gruff is depicted as a close friend to Max, serving as the "patsy" of Max’s antics, and as such, often ends up with the short end of the stick. Samantha Heavenhound holds a reasonable deal of respect for both Max and Charley but serves as the foil to Max's pranks, and therefore tries to keep Max in line, but the latter hardly ever listens to her.
In 2021, the United States had found an avid cure for COVID-19. But many of the writers of the Max comics were unable to continue writing, due to the stock market crash that resulted after the pandemic's end. As a result, the printing presses were scrapped, save for one, with their remains being repurposed to aid in the crash's aftermath.
One moth later, Jacob Polk used the aforementioned printing press to publish comics to promote the Max Cartoons. A week later, the Max Hound comics were canceled entirely alongside the studio's closure due to "unhealthy work conditions" As a result of a burst pipe, untold amounts of ink ruined much of the promotional comics. This obviously was a cover-up for the Authority's birth and takeover of the studio and the case of the missing children.
In 2030, Richard Saxton, along with several employees of Saxton Films (many of whom are avid Max Hound fans), led an effort in salvaging any Max Hound comics that they could. They managed to find several comics of all three previously described mediums. In an attempt to educate future generations about Max, he published a collection of these comics and even included a brief history of these comics, as well as his plans to revive the Max Hound franchise with the help of Jake Birch after the closure of Max Hound Studios, after allegedly purchasing the Max Hound franchising rights from Jacob Polk’s estate.
== Trivia ==
* The fact of Jake Birch teaming up with Richard Saxton to revive any Max Hound comics they could find is probably the obvious reason why he returned to the studio in the first place.
* It has been revealed by Charmer himself that the comics will be showed through Google Slides for all to view. It is currently unknown when this will happen.
* The comics seem to give more insight on how the characters act.
* Jake Birch currently has never mentioned Saxton Films or Richard Saxton in the series. The reason for this has been left unknown as of right now.
