Max
CHARACTER
The guy who gets punched in the opening of Street Fighter II.


History

Street Fighter II opened with two men fighting, before the camera panned up to the top of a building with the logo. Early sources such as official Capcom mooks (All About Capcom, All About Street Fighter) indicated that these two were Joe (Character) and Mike from the first Street Fighter (Game). However, the supplemental Street Fighter V (Game) site Street Fighter V Character Encyclopedia gave these two redesigns and indicated their names were Scott and Max, respectively. Max, in his new design, also made a brief appearance in SFV's story mode, where he is defeated by Alex (Character).

Trivia

Max was made into a Caucasian in the North American version of Street Fighter II: Special Champion Edition.
