THE FANDOM ZONE 309: "Cheers to the Tin Man" Is Up!

 
"Friend Nina, my disappointment in having no Nazis to kill when I arrived is lessened by my pleasure that you are alive."
-- G.I. Robot to Nina Mazursky, Creature Commandos -- "Cheers to the Tin Man"

Hello again, everyone! DJ Nik and I are back for another new episode of The Fandom Zone Podcast! This time, we discuss "Cheers to the Tin Man", the third episode from Creature Commandos Season One, starring the voices of Sean Gunn as G.I. Robot, Zoë Chao as Nina Mazursky, Anya Chalotra as Circe, and Michael Rooker as Sam Fitzgibbon!

In this episode, DJ Nik and I talk about things like my playing under the weather, James Gunn probably smiling like G.I. Robot as he wrote the scenes where G.I. Robot massacred Nazis, Michael Rooker as Yondu Udonta in the Guardians of the Galaxy movies and Merle Dixon on The Walking Dead, some comics background on G.I. Robot, Sgt. Rock, and Dr. Will Magnus, G.I. Robot finding acceptance by Easy Company for his talents at killing Nazis, that awkward moment when G.I. Robot goes on a late-night talk show and all he wants to talk about is killing Nazis, soldiers returning from war having difficulty settling back into society, Dr. Will Magnus taking G.I. Robot apart to study him for his Metal Men research, that awkward moment when Sam the lonely military enthusiast befriends G.I. Robot only to turn out to be an alt-right Neo-Nazi, wondering what happened to Sam's cats after G.I. Robot killed him, the great use of "Coin-Operated Boy" by the Dresden Dolls, the latest round of obscure Easter Egg supervillains, wondering how G.I. Robot got due process at his trial without a jury of his peers, G.I. Robot collecting dust and cobwebs during his Belle Reve prison stay, Will Magnus' blackboard teasing the Metal Men, Rick Flag Sr. telling G.I. Robot that the Sons of Themyscira attacking them are Nazis, G.I. Robot getting taken off the board by Circe, G.I. Robot and Nina having a very Drax and Mantis-like pairing, wondering why Nina wasn't killed after the Episode 2 cliffhanger, Weasel and Dr. Phosphorus taking down Circe, Circe telling the Creature Commandos that they've doomed the world, our favorite quotes of the episode, another request for Creature Commandos feedback, my upcoming story for DC Comics' anthology DC's Lex and the City, Nik returning to Next Stop Everywhere: The Doctor Who Podcast, getting Fandom Zone bragging rights, and more!
