Biography[]
Rog was a giant red robot invented by Niles Caulder. It was several stories tall and had superhuman strength and durability. The head-piece of the robot was actually a pilot capsule, where a living operator would sit and control the robot's actions.
A man named Eric Morden stole the robot as a means of earning his way into membership of the Brotherhood of Evil. Piloting the monstrosity, he began terrorizing a major American city, destroying a suspension bridge in the process. Caulder's team, the Doom Patrol, engaged Rog and Elasti-Girl grappled with it, while Robotman pounded at its footing to make it lose its balance. [3]
