G (Street Fighter)

G is a video game character from the Street Fighter series, first appearing in the third DLC season of Street Fighter V.

Appearance
G has a peculiar appearance; a long, rather wild beard, contrasting with his clothing which consists of a very tall top hat with decorative patterns around the base. A black bow-tie at the neck. A black waistcoat buttoned at the side, decorated with highly ornate patterns and trimmed at the shoulders with a shiny red material. Under the waistcoat a formal white shirt can be seen. A gold pocket-watch hangs from the left side of his waistcoat. Oddly, small areas of G's skin - most noticeably the area around his left eye and on his arms - appear to be gold. A closer look reveals that the gold patterns form a map of the globe; both American continents appear in gold on his right arm.

Personality
Nothing is yet known of G's identity. Though he appears to be a figure of some authority: in the cinematic trailer he is shown standing on a stage then pointing towards the screen, a pose that coupled with G's clothing, is reminiscent of the 1812 American political character Uncle Sam. After this, a crowd can be heard cheering and G chuckles.

Trivia

 * G's pose, in consideration with his design, in the cinematic opening for Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition is reminiscent of Uncle Sam's "I want you" pose.
 * G also bears a resemblance to Abraham Lincoln.
 * In Sega's House of the Dead series, there is a character who shares his name.
 * G shares similarities to Greg the Gorilla from the Bloody Roar series. They both wear top hats and have beards. G's name is also the first letter in Greg's name.
