7. Project M
Look, the DC Comics Allies really knew how to fight a war.
Project M was a military outfit on Ferris Island that decided to fund strange new methods of fighting the Nazis. Some of the projects they sponsored included the Nazi-wrecking automaton GI Robot, the matter-warping Miss America, and the Universal Horror-inspired Creature Commandos.
Yes, the DCU US government paid for a team that included a Frankenstein, a Dracula, a Wolfman, and a Medusa so they could fight the Nazis. And also a murder robot. I love that murder robot. GI Robot is, I would argue, the best DC Comics character of all time. Miss America's also pretty rad. Even if she didn't know she was a product of Project M for the longest time.
Still, the idea that ANYTHING in Project M got approved by a government official is hilarious. Someone looked at a proposal that said, "We would like to use millions of taxpayer dollars to make a murder robot, a team of literal monsters, and lady with godlike powers." And someone said, "Yes, this sounds like a good use of time and money.”
