That's just something happening twice. By that logic, every space invasion story after The War of the Worlds would be Hilarous in Hindsight.

When confronted, Max finds the usual methods to ward off vampires don't work on her... because she's a horsefly taking a human form.

* TheProblemWithLicensedGames: There were three licensed games: two handhelds made by Tiger Electronics and Systema which were generally considered SoOkayItsAverage by LCD handheld standards and faded into obscurity, and the much more notorious ''The Adventures Of Mighty Max'' for the SNES and Sega Genesis. ''The Adventures Of Mighty Max'' was so horrible that the publisher didn't even put it on sale in most markets; it could only be rented at selected Blockbuster stores. In markets where it was available, it was packed with tapes of the episodes ("Day of the Cyclops" for the SNES version, and "Let Sleeping Dragons Lie" for the Genesis version) presumably because they knew they needed to sweeten the pot to move copies.

* CompleteMonster: ''Mighty Max'' had some surprisingly dark storylines for a kids' series and some terrifying villains:
** [[SorcerousOverlord Skullmaster]] was Virgil's [[APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil apprentice]] before his hunger for power made him seek the Cosmic Cap in hopes of ruling the world. Skullmaster destroys all of Lumeria in his quest for power, later destroying the city of Atlantis and [[YourSoulIsMine trapping the souls]] of its people to fuel his Crystal. In the present, Skullmaster attempted to murder Max in order to gain the Cosmic Cap despite Max's young age; and manipulated a sorcerer into summoning a dragon that would crack open the world. Skullmaster would later [[HeroKiller kill many heroes]] who attempted to destroy him. Once freed from his imprisonment, Skullmaster enslaves an indigenous tribe by mutating them into half-dragon hybrids. Skullmaster later corrupts the Hydra, which would've disrupted the balance between good and evil, resulting in the world's destruction. In the finale, Skullmaster kills all of the indigenous tribe to recharge his crystal and use it to make himself a god. Skullmaster kidnaps Virgil to force Max into giving him the cap, then kills Warmonger once [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness he was no longer useful]].
** "[[Recap/MightyMaxS1E11WerewolvesOfDunneglen Werewolves of Dunneglen]]": [[spoiler:[[MadScientist Professor MacDougal]] discovered the existence of werewolves, along with the fact they were peaceful guardians of Scotland. She captured the pack and hooked them up in a rather unpleasant situation where their blood was painfully extracted into a formula for [[ProfessorGuineaPig her]]. After drinking it, [=MacDougal=] would achieve the ability to [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent transform herself]] and used it [[SavageWolves solely to kill innocent people]], becoming the scourge of the highlands. When Max stumbled upon her lair, [=MacDougal=] locks him inside and takes her formula so she can kill him, gleefully referring to him as "[[ImAHumanitarian breakfast]]".]]
** "[[Recap/MightyMaxS2E4TheMissingLinked The Missing Linked]]": The nameless MadScientist is an ignored outcast who created [[BlobMonster Corpus]] in revenge, having used the beast to [[WhereIWasBornAndRazed wipe out everyone in his hometown]]. The scientist intends to unleash his [[PetMonstrosity pet abomination]] upon the entire world, where [[AndIMustScream a truly horrible fate]] awaits; everyone devoured by Corpus is not killed but assimilated by the beast, reduced to nothing more than a disembodied face in howling agony.
** "[[Recap/MightyMaxS2E6TheCyberskullVirus The Cyberskull Virus]]" & "[[Recap/MightyMaxS2E15CyberskullIITheNextLevel Cyberskull II: The Next Level]]": [[EvilNerd Morlen Kurt]], aka [[RealityWarper Cyberskull]], was a genius programmer who merged with his ComputerVirus, dubbing himself a "[[AGodAmI Digital God]]" after [[MegaCorp Mega Corp.]] stole his video game. Using his reality-warping powers to attack the corporation's CEO and his employees, Cyberskull later starts turning all of reality into a digital horror zone according to his image. After his plan at assimilating the whole world into cyberspace failed, Cyberskull installs wireless transceivers disguised as label tags to take control of Mega Corp's CEO J.C. Megas and have him use satellites to drain the Earth of its electricity, uncaring of the lives at stake. Cyberskull then starts brainwashing numerous people into forming a cult of his liking to worship him as a god, while he plans to use Max and his allies as his first sacrifice.
** "[[Recap/MightyMaxS2E11SoulsOfTalon Souls of Talon]]": [[EldritchAbomination Talon]] is a [[SoulEating soul-devouring entity]] imprisoned in the Astral Plane who seeks to be [[SealedEvilInACan free]] and [[YourSoulIsMine steal the souls]] of everyone on Earth. After savaging over 1 million souls of both man and beast, Talon attempts to escape the Astral Plane, only to be denied by the gatekeeper. He attacks the gate, damaging it and causing natural disasters in the physical world. When Max and company enter the Astral plane to stop him, Talon steals the Cosmic Cap and leaves Max trapped within the astral plane while Talon goes to wreak havoc on Earth, stealing the souls of countless civilians on Earth. After the disc that kept him immortal was stolen by the heroes, Talon attempts to steal Max's soul and threatens to [[FateWorseThanDeath torture him for eternity]] if he doesn't give him the disc back.
** "[[Recap/MightyMaxS2E13ClownWithoutPity Clown Without Pity]]": [[MonsterClown Freako the Clown]] lures dozens of Russian [[WouldHurtAChild children]] to his CircusOfFear, where he uses his {{magic mirror}}s to transform the poor children into [[BodyHorror misshapen abominations who can't even speak anymore]] despite fully remembering who they were.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: One of the shining examples of this among kids' animation in the 90s. The TotallyRadical humor was really the only thing that diminished how much NightmareFuel and FamilyUnfriendlyViolence the show was able to pack in. The show killed off extras in incredibly horrible and varied ways on a near-OnceAnEpisode basis--everything to monsters cutting apart loggers with their own chainsaws to mummies conducting onscreen child sacrifice--usually to set up the episode's villain. The GrandFinale went even further by [[spoiler:killing off the entire supporting cast onscreen and even denying the hero any sort of meaningful victory against the InvincibleVillain.]]

CompleteMonster: ''Mighty Max'' had some surprisingly dark storylines for a kids' series and some terrifying villains:
**[[EvilOverlord [[SorcerousOverlord Skullmaster]] overthrew his previous master and took control of his subterranean kingdom from where he plots world domination. Skullmaster is a sadist, reveling in [[ColdBloodedTorture physical]] and [[MindRape psychological]] torture, and engages in both short-term brutality and long-term gambits.

Responsible for the deaths of multiple heroes throughout the story, Skullmaster even attempted to blackmail Max for his mentor and friend Virgil's life by surrendering [[APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil apprentice]] before his magical cap. When Max turned it over, hunger for power made him seek the Cosmic Cap in hopes of ruling the world. Skullmaster [[ILied brutally killed Virgil]], [[BadBoss killing destroys all of Lumeria in his quest for power, later destroying the city of Atlantis and [[YourSoulIsMine trapping the souls]] of its people to fuel his Crystal. In the present, Skullmaster attempted to murder Max in order to gain the Cosmic Cap despite Max's young age; and manipulated a sorcerer into summoning a dragon that would crack open the world. Skullmaster would later [[HeroKiller kill many heroes]] who attempted to destroy him. Once freed from his imprisonment, Skullmaster enslaves an indigenous tribe by mutating them into half-dragon hybrids. Skullmaster later corrupts the Hydra, which would've disrupted the balance between good and evil, resulting in the world's destruction. In the finale, Skullmaster kills all of the indigenous tribe to recharge his crystal and use it to make himself a god. Skullmaster kidnaps Virgil to force Max into giving him the cap, then kills Warmonger soon after]].

It's not really implied. The only episode where a portal's shown working backwards was, I believe, I Warmonger, where a major magical accident had reversed everything in the area. Meaning Max and his friends could escape using the same portal they'd used to get there.

*** Made worse because it's hinted that the portals are all one way. When Virgil and Norman used Max to get them to Greece so Norman could take his immortality trials, they took a rather convoluted path, only pushing Max himself through the final portal so he'd wouldn't have to be present if Norman lost. Max, being Max, determined to go back, but had to use the same chain of portals from before, rather than leap back through the portal that had sent him home.
