Allusions in Ulysses by Weldon Thornton is an amazing compilation of annotations to Joyce's novel. Far from "complete" (no collection of annotations could competently boast that), it is an incredibly helpful guide for those reading Ulysses and wondering about the many offhand references Joyce makes. This pulls in religious allegories, literary allusions, historical figures and events, and more.
