Maxwell

Summary
Maxwell (Max), as encountered by the heroes in the future, is one of the last surviving meta-humans after Paradox becomes President of the United States. He is young, but determined. Inspired by Surge during his childhood and emboldened by his actions during Paradox's presidency. As a speedster he mimics Surge's speed feats. It is unknown the extent of his powers, as the rating system and MERIT are no longer in effect in the future. Max is a wealth of information pertaining to geography within the city, as well as the underground system. This, combined with his smaller frame and his speedster abilities makes him the perfect messenger and scout for the remaining meta-humans.

Max's parents were previously unknown, and were believed to be deceased along with the rest of his family. They are implied to have been killed as part of the non-essential meta-human purge. It is not long afterwards that Max is taken under Surge's wing, and learns to hone his power for the benefits of others. He remained in the future timeline, not wanting to put his own desires in front of others as he remained vigilant in his work.

More recently, Max's mother was confirmed to still be alive in a vegetative state. She has since been recovered physically.
