  1. 1. Should Maxwell be forgiven?



Recommended Posts

I believe at a certain point there should be no forgiveness for peoples actions- it’s like the video game injustice gods amongst us, there was a huge topic for that game on rather Superman should be able redeem himself, This is AFTER he becomes evil, freezes Shazam (Aka a little boy in an Adult Body) mouth shut and then X-Ray visions his brain out his skull, and Why? Because Joker tricked him into killing his pregnant wife thinking he was fighting Doomsday? Sorry but that’s no hero.. and there’s no redemption arc for him, the only redemption he could’ve ever gotten in that case was to go back in time to before he went over the edge. Because even if he sacrificed his own life in some heroic last stand effort or whatever- He would still have killed an innocent kid by freezing his mouth shut and X-ray visioning his brain.

With Maxwell in DS/DST his case is just a little bit different: Because no one ever truly “dies” in the constant, it’s like a funky little world of endless dying and repeated mistakes (play Spelunky 2 they have a whole story about people enjoying going into a magic temple where they can die and do it all over again) Maxwell COULD get forgiveness if he can return everyone he ever abducted back to their lives in the real world in a better condition then they were in when they were pulled in. Of course there would be some characters who obviously wouldn’t want to return to the real world Wendy gets to be with and spend time with Abigail, going back means saying Goodbye forever.. so Obviously Wendy would want to stay with Abby. Webber could only go back if they could take him back in time to before he got infused with a Spider. Etc etc..

And hey wouldn’t you know it.. Wanda happens to be able to travel in time. Albeit currently to limited points in time, but still the possibility of redemption exists for Maxwell, Unlike Superman in the Injustice story.

He had to do what he had to do because he got caught up with a Mafia, barganed with Witherstones to borrow magic props for his shows and owed a bunch of money, faked his death to get rid of the mafia issue then to only lose the one he deeply loved, Charlie. He's been on a throne for who knows how long only to be saved by a person he tormented and as he states he made a deal to wilson to not fight against each other to be able to save Charlie. He regrets it all and has thought of dark things, he is broken and mentally damaged from what he has done. I'd forgive him and hug him very tight, he deserves a good ending finding Charlie after defeating the grue and her going to their side looking for the one she knew once as "Maxy" to leave off on an edge of her finding out all the lies he did, but in the end will see how much he cared and learn to forgive it all to be back together once again.
