Examples of algebraic surfaces of general type with maximal Picard number are not abundant in the literature. Moreover, most known examples either possess low invariants, lie near the Noether line K2=2χ-6 or are somewhat scattered. A notable exception is Persson's sequence of double covers of the projective plane with maximal Picard number, whose invariants converge to the Severi line K2=4χ. This note is devoted to the construction of infinitely many new sequences of surfaces of general type with maximal Picard number whose invariants converge to the Severi line.
