During the series, it is revealed that Jhiaxus was among the earliest "second generation" Decepticons that would eventually form the Cybertronian Empire, and he was originally a vicious, warmongering butcher and sadist who reveled in slaughter. His calm, self-assured personality is a notable departure from Megatron's zeal, Galvatron's insanity, Starscream's treachery, and Shockwave's calculating logic. In the Generation 2 comic series, Jhiaxus holds the rank of Liege Centuro of the Cybertronian Empire - an offshoot faction which came to power during the Autobots and Decepticon's 4 million year hibernation on Earth prior to 1984. Hasbro registered the name Jhiaxus for U.S. Originally created for Marvel's Generation 2 comic series, the character was named in reaction to the unrealistic sales expectations the publisher put on writer Simon Furman, and is a pun on the phrase "gee, axe us", anticipating the short life of the series. Unlike most of the notable characters in the Transformers comics, Jhiaxus is not based on a toy.
