Backstory From My Old Comics: Ulysses is a robot created by the Zyrconian scientist, Dr. Lizaki. Lizaki can install adaptors on Uly that allow him to transform into other machines, such as a jet and a motorcycle. This idea was most-assuredly inspired by the original Transformers cartoon. (Probably the only reason there wasn't more Transformers influence on my work is because I was completely alienated by the changes made in the third season of the cartoon, and then the show seemed to just disappear after that.)
Character Design Notes: There are a couple of different Uly designs, including one that has a horned head and one that doesn't. I haven't drawn him in awhile, so I'm not even really sure what he's supposed to look like, canonically-speaking. Ulysses in The RAU Gallery: Ulysses has not yet made an appearance in the current series and there are no plans to use him at this time.
This is the Minerva Project version of Ulysses.
