MAX is heading to outer space with the new animated sci-fi series “Scavengers Reign.” The show follows the crew of the deep space freighter, Demeter, after it mysteriously reroutes and disappears into the void of space. Leading everyone to assume its inhabitants are now dead.
However, the crew is still very much alive and finds themselves stranded on a different planet, one as beautiful as it is brutal. Now they must learn about the planet to survive until they find their way back home.
