Maximus

He’s a superhero because he helps people even when no one is watching, just like Spider‑Man. He doesn’t need super strength or super speed

Who is Maximus's favorite superhero and why do they admire them?

Spider‑Man is my favorite because he saves people all the time, even if they don’t know him. He swings around super fast and helps anybody who needs it. And he’s not a grown‑up superhero, he’s like a kid who got powers and decided to be good.


Where did Maximus's love of superheroes come from?

He loved superheroes ’cause when he was little, he thought they were the coolest things EVER. Like, he saw one on TV blasting lasers and saving people, and he was like, “OH MAN, I wanna do that too!”Then he started pretending the living room was a secret city and the couch was a giant monster he had to defeat. He liked how superheroes were brave and strong and always helped people, so he decided he wanted to be just like them.Now he loves superheroes forever, even if he can’t fly… yet.


What superpower would Maximus want and why?

He wants SUPER STRENGTH because then he could lift anything, even the couch, and find all the missing toys hiding under it. And if someone needed help, he’d pick up the whole problem and move it out of the way. Plus, he says he’d carry ALL the groceries in one trip and look like a superhero doing it
