Description
Sheldon Oswald Lee. Many terms could be used to describe this individual.Social Pariah? Of course.
Nerd? The living definition.
Creepy? Most would agree that his, ahem, taste in girls qualify.
Genius? Absolutely without a doubt.
Hero? Not a chance... according to the ignorant masses.
What was once a half-baked scheme to win the heart of the bot he loves has now snowballed into a full double life. He now regularly patrols the streets of Tremorton in his shiny silver battlesuit in his heroic, egotistical, narcissistic persona; The Silver Shell.
Originally the SS armor was very poorly equipped for combat. Lacking in both weapons and armor, and was underwhelming in strength and speed. All part of Shel's attempt to manipulate Jenny's affections. It failed miserably.
But that's in the past. And a part time hero/college student needs better duds than that. Otherwise he may as well hang his suit up and leave the world to the XJs.
Now SS is fully armed and ready, with a whole new assortment of gadgets and armor. Fully upgraded from tip to tip. He can take on almost everything the world throws at him.
He's mostly given up on using this armor to win Jenny's heart though. Mostly.
Too bad it HAS won the heart of Mattie. Shel will never catch a break.

From Dork to Dynamo. This is the kind of upgrade SS always needed!

he did lived though one life time as a pirate so he is most likely updated when he got back.

He had plenty of time to upgrade it by the time I envision these re-designs being. Lots of time between High school and college, after all. ^_^

I read your Artist comment and I do say that I'm not interested on your art, but the things you said was simply...

Well I must say, it's certainly unusual for a person to prefer my comment to my picture, but I'm glad to hear that it moved you. ^_^
I'm happy that you liked the comment at least. XD

Awesome!
With armor like that (and if he was in the DC universe), Sheldon would probably get a call from the Justice League.

That could be said of most characters in MLaaTR.

True.....
Say! That gives me an idea!
Thanks!

Poor guy can't catch a break, but at least he as weapons to spare!

Yeah, he's loaded to the brim with all kinds of neat stuff. Too bad his social skills haven't upgraded with his armor.

Knowing Shel, he'd take one of those too literally.

Probably, speaking of which I notice you didn't mention if Jenny knows the Sheldon is the silver shell! Maybe you could do a comic on the subject!

Jenny has no idea of SS's identity. As for a comic, I'm not *that* good.

you never know unless you try, besides a good idea to test out those models motion!

Now that's quite a battlesuit, definitely something for the villains to fear. Looks fierce and quite a bit more powerful than his old suit ^_^ So what sort of gadgets does this armor have? And how close has Mattie come to catching him?
Though I have to wonder how much Murphy's Law still affects Sheldon; it sure seemed out to get him when he was younger, like Fate (or Lady Luck if one prefers) had a personal grudge against him

I'm glad to hear you like it. SS was kinda tricky.
SS is armed with pretty much all standard giant robot weaponry. Beam blades, lasers, missiles, and a bunch of support gear as well. He can even get mixed up in space battles now too.
As to Mattie, SS is always trying to discourage those advances as tactfully as possible. He doesn't want a female planetary defense system to feel scorned. That, and if she ever learned the truth about him, she'd break every bone in his body.
As for Murphy's Law, it may as well be called Sheldon's Law at this point.

Well, considering XJ4 Marie has him under her thumb for his own good, and XJ8, Mattie the amazon bot is seriously, but awkwardly crushing on the silver shell, and there's still Jenny to pine over, I'd say things are about the same for poor mister Lee
