The pre-Crisis Ultraa was Jack Grey. He was an Australian who had the distinction of being the only super-hero of Earth-Prime. He aided the JLA several times against the Injusitce Gang and the Over-Complex. The current version of Ultraa comes from Maxima's homeworld of Almerac. He and Maxima were groomed as mates from birth, but he was beaten in a tournament and she spurned him. This drove him to overcompensate by using his great strength to conquer untold worlds in her name. He became wildly jealous when he discovered that she had gone to Earth seeking Superman as a mate. Instead of Superman, he found Maxima with Captain Atom (her newest conquest). Ultraa was easily beaten by Cap and Maxima sent Ultraa packing once again. He apparently stayed on Earth because he next appeared as part of the UN's "League Busters." This outfit was sent in after the JLA when they defied UN orders not to engage the Overmaster. He has not been seen since then. See Obscure Characters
