3 Minute Max is a superhero Webcomic by Bob and Max Forward, a father and son team, about Max Reaper, a man who has the ability to die for three minutes and bring himself back to life. This makes him the perfect candidate to use the Strike Gate, an experimental teleporter which kills anyone who goes through it, unless they're already dead. The comic can be found here. It is also a member of the superhero webcomic collective, Collective of Heroes.
This comic shows examples of:
- Blessed with Suck: Sure, it might sound cool to be able to come back from death, but one actually has to die first. Not to mention, he starts to hallucinate if he stays dead for too long.
- "Number of Objects" Title: Named after the Race Against the Clock of the story and a Pun-Based Title on the word Maximum, where Max has three minutes to complete his mission.
- Race Against the Clock: Max has three minutes to complete his mission and be yanked back through the gate, or he'll die permanently.
