I didnt understand it as a kid either, but it still stuck with me for some reason.
I believe the ending shows the emotional bondage some relationships can bring. MaXX had nothing in life except the fantasy that he could protect Julie and fight her emotional demons via a superhero model he created, overcoming the evil in the fantasy sense. The problem was is that Julie could only fix it herself. Same applies to other people trying to fix our own problems in real life.
The ending with Maxx in his real form showed he needed to create his own outback and not to try to be in Julie's in order for him to overcome his own demons. He was man without a real past until the ending of the show.
The garden basically gave him a building block and a way to think out his past angst in a very simple and peaceful setting.
