Maxwell Tower is a state-of-the art tower block, a bold, experimental council tenement, run by an A.I. called Max. As building superintendent, Max's primary function is the welfare of his tenants, which he takes very seriously. And if anyone threatens either the residents or the building itself, they can expect a visit to the thirteenth floor, a place where nightmare and reality become one! This beautifully illustrated, darkly comical first volume includes the complete run of the strip from the legendary boy's comic, Scream!
