I used to like those scenes, too. I also liked the
end of the first issue, when the Maxx character chides
himself for talking out loud. Unfortunately, I
couldn't follow most of the story and some of it just
wasn't that interesting. I tended to like the sidreal
characters better than the Maxx or his counsellor.
Oh, and, Mr. Gone, of course.
