MAX: Explicit Content

Marvel MAX (MAX Comics) is an American adult comic label launched by Marvel Comics in 2001 (headquartered in New York). It specializes in comic media aimed at adult readers and operates as an outlet for uncensored content under its own rating system, established after withdrawing from the Comics Code Authority. Since 2012, new releases have been mainly limited to the Punisher series, and MAX has been treated as a rating indicating mature content. The label “MAX: Explicit Content” appears on covers.
