Awesome / Mighty Max

Go To

  • Max destroying the Crystal of Souls, thanks to everything he learned from the heroes.
    • To some extent, anytime Max works up the courage to face Skullmaster is pretty awesome, because Skullmaster is just that damn frightening.
  • Godd Golly Mrs. Kali has Norman and Max fighting against gods.
    • Norman defeats Ganesh and fight even evenly with Naja.
    • Max gets imbued with the power of Shiva and defeats Kali, the most powerful of the three.
  • In Rumble in the Jungle Max uses the portal map to defeat a monster gorilla man.
  • Most if not all of the Arc episodes will have some incredibly awesome moments from Max, Virgil, and Norman. Norman gets a special mention as he refuses to be subjected to the Worf Effect that non Arc episodes would stick him with.
    • Heck, in the season two premier he goes One-Man Army on Skullmaster's forces.
    • Virgil really shines in the season 2 premier as well. Playing the Mole to the Big Bad is awesome by itself but he shows that his Nerves of Steel are just as impressive as Max and Norman's when he keeps a completely cool and poised demeanor when Skullmaster threatens him with a slow death, and outwits Skullmaster. The only reason he survived was because Max was unwilling to kill Virgil along with Skullmaster.
  • Max repolarizing the hydra with the spell from the Arcanum... By making the two heads argue. Its pretty awesome.
  • The Missing Linked. While Norman is trapped inside an Eldritch Abomination Max puts himself in danger to get his attention. Seeing Maxin danger, Norman rips his way out of an Eldritch Abomination to save him. He then jumps back into it to save the people caught inside.
  • At the very end of the series, Skullmaster has killed all of Max's allies, and all but succeeded in conquering the world and controlling time itself. Max, a young kid, finds himself all alone and without hope. He has nothing left, and every reason to give up...but instead, knowing that he's almost certainly going to die in the process, he gets up, and hurls himself onto Skullmaster's staff in a desperate attempt to stop him. Yet, against all odds, (and with the series' action theme playing) Max succeeds. That's awesome in and of itself, but what really hits home is Max's Badass Boast.
    Skullmaster: You fool! You can't save the world!
    Skullmaster: YOU WILL!
  • Norman avenging his father's death at Spike's hands.
Spike: If you kill me, you'll be just like me!
Norman: I can live with that. (pushes Spike off a cliff)
