Ussmak is a character from Harry Turtledove's Worldwar series, a member of the reptilian-like alien "Race" that invades Earth in the midst of World War II. A tank driver, he is wounded on the Eastern Front by German and Soviet partisans, and develops an addiction to ginger during recovery. Increasingly disenchanted with the war, he incites a mutiny in 1944 before capitulating to Soviet forces on the promise of amnesty; the mutineers are betrayed, interrogated, and consigned to the gulag. Ussmak dies from exhaustion, before the general cease-fire later that year.
Ussmak features as a member of Stylesjl's crew in DRAW Your Own Story 10.[1] Apparently an Australian Supreme Court judge, he presides over Church of Scientology v. Stylesrj;[2][3][4][5] questions over his judicial impartiality would lead the Law Council to order a retrial.[6] Even by Stylesjl's standard, Ussmak was an obscure side character: he serves as armour general in the jihad,[7] appearing irregularly in subsequent comics.
