Oooh geez, Isaac.

So this guy is a robot from the future sent back to the past to stop a terrible disaster that ends the world. Once he gets to our current day, he places a quarter into a parking meter and his mission is complete (butterfly effect shenanigans). Now, he's a part time superhero, part time nanny.

Yes, he is named after the author and yes, his pin is a reference to that book.
