Brock Samson

The Venture Bros. | Character

Something Missing?

Brock Samson (voiced by Patrick Warburton) is a character who loves Led Zeppelin and recently acted as bodyguard to the Venture Family. For most of the series he has long blonde hair that is commonly remarked upon by others, often in reference to the biblical Samson. He was born in Omaha, Nebraska to a single mother. After being kicked out of college, he joined the US Army before joining the Office of Secret Intelligence (presumably a covert branch of the United States Government). There he acquired secret agent skills and a License to Kill. Even though Brock possesses a license to kill, he refuses to use a gun and instead wields a Ka-Bar fighting knife as his signature weapon. He relies on brute strength, endurance, and skill with a knife that borders on the supernatural. He is also able to tell whenever someone is in his car, apparently from an entirely separate continent, which Shoreleave believes is "a legitimate super-power". Brock also has subtly shown signs of being somewhat conflicted with his place in the world and unsure about his purpose as killing machine, such as when he confessed remorse for his murder of one Monarch henchman who later was revived by Dr. Venture into "Venturestein". Samson also has a personal code or ethics regarding innocents and whom he will kill if they are a threat to him and or the Ventures. In the season 3 finale, Brock becomes disillusioned with the O.S.I. and leaves the organization, also quitting his position as the Ventures' bodyguard. He then joins S.P.H.I.N.X., a group of other disillusioned O.S.I. agents who got tired of the rules and regulations put in place on the organization, and continues to keep a close eye on the Venture family (as S.P.H.I.N.X. uses an abandoned building on the Venture Compound for their base). In the season 4 finale, "Operation: P.R.O.M.", Brock and the other former O.S.I. members rejoins O.S.I. after Hunter Gathers is re-instated into the organization as its new commander. In season 6 he is reinstated by the O.S.I. as the Venture family bodyguard when they move to New York City. Brock also appears as a character in the crossover video game Poker Night 2. In Poker Night 2, though a conversation led by Brock and Ash from the Evil Dead franchise, GLaDOS from Portal finds out that Ash has a family relationship with Brock, as Ash is technically one of Brock's 14th century ancestors due to time travel.
