The comic book series was adapted into an animated series as part of the MTV program Oddities. It covered Darker Image #1, The Maxx #1/2, and issues #1–11 of the regular series and depicted the introduction of Julie, the original Maxx, Mr. Gone, and, later, Sara. Therefore, the TV series did not go into the same depth (e.g. revealing the origins of all the characters).

The animation frequently changes style: in one scene, characters may be rendered in detail, but in the next, they may be simplified cartoons. Often, this is done to show a change in perspective. CGI and even live-action film are sometimes integrated or interspersed with the hand-drawn animation. Critics such as Richard Matthes have noted how much of the animation is based directly on panels from the comic.

In 1996, the series was released on VHS. In 2009, it became available to stream on MTV.com, though only to American audiences. On December 17, 2009, The Maxx became available on DVD exclusively through Amazon.com's CreateSpace "Manufacture-on-Demand" program, which contains every episode of the television show and also includes audio commentary on each episode, plus interviews with creator Sam Kieth and director Gregg Vanzo. Full episodes of the entire season can be streamed for free on MTV's Liquid TV reboot liquidtelevision.com.
