When Julie and Maxx go out of town, they put Mickey in charge of feeding the fish and watering the plants. But they'll be lucky if the plants survive: between a boyfriend who won't grow up, and a father who won't admit that SHE grew up a long time ago, Mickey barely has time to work out her own issues -- much less save her crayon-loving boyfriend from his own incompetence.
Mickey makes a surprise appearance later in the book as well, as Charley -- fresh out of prison and on a two-issues-long road trip with Uncle Ira -- gets into more trouble than he ever expected. With low-riders, biker babes, tattoos and bodies in the trunk, Sam Kieth takes Charley (and the reader) on a tour of the human psyche you won't soon forget!
The final book in the Sam Kieth Maxx library, Volume Six collects the three Friends of Maxx specials, plus an added bonus, a short story taken from The Maxx #1 3-D edition, printed for the first time in 2-D.
