, with the first two episodes of the eagerly anticipated series now streaming on Max. The series, which is sort of the soft kickoff for James Gunn’s new DC Universe, centers around a black ops team of monsters that Amanda Waller has put together after she’s no longer allowed to use humans for the job.
appears to be adapting — he has a number “2” on his head in the series. However, those fine details generally don’t matter in the grand scheme. It’s the G.I. Robot we get on screen that is just perfect. In the series, G.I Robot was a Nazi killing machine during World War 2. Waller remarks that he killed more than 300 Nazis during the war and it’s something that G.I. Robot clearly takes pride in. Right away we see him always vigilant about the Nazi threat, even while in captivity at Belle Reve.
While that focus on a singular purpose is unsurprising considering that he’s a robot and that is clearly a part of his original programming, there is also something endearing about it. The way G.I. Robot is drawn and animated, he looks friendly and harmless. It makes his fixation on the Nazi threat feel almost comforting in a sense, like he’s trying to do something good for humanity, albeit something violent. And the series does make the effort to “humanize” him in a sense. G.I.
With a charming design that feels friendly despite being literally a robot as well as some “quirks” that make the character endearing, G.I. Robot just feels like a home run of a character. He’s well-rounded and interesting and gives viewers someone to be intrigued by and to root for and while he’s not your standard hero, it’s the complexity of the character that we get glimpses of that makes him genuinely interesting and one of DC’s best to date.
