Samuel J. Stuhlinger is a protagonist and playable character in the Zombies game mode of Call of Duty: Black Ops II and Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, and a selectable skin in the Black Ops 4 Blackout mode.
He was voiced by Dave Boat.
Biography[]
After Earth's destruction, Stuhlinger was one of the few survivors left from the missile launch, and took shelter in a survival group called "The Flesh", who claimed that eating the flesh of the zombie hordes was the only way to survive their new anarchic world. This act of cannibalism granted Stuhlinger the ability to hear voices within the Aether, however the contact with the infected flesh gave him symptoms of the zombie virus.
Appearance[]
Samuel is a Caucasian man with a mustache, charcoal sweater, green vest, khaki shorts and glasses. He has short, grey hair, and appears slightly overweight. He also has a sidepack. In Buried, Stuhlinger has blood stains on his face and clothes and the right lens of his glasses have cracked, as well as having some parts of his clothes ripped.
Personality[]
Samuel is incredibly paranoid and seems to be a conspiracy theorist. He is frustrated with the lack of explanations to the events that occur and so he creates his own theories, often involving aliens or government cover-ups. Riddled with guilt due to his history of cannibalism, Samuel does not like to talk about himself around the others out of fear that they will either kill him or abandon him if they knew his secret. Samuel hates Misty and dislikes Marlton, but likes Russman.
In the comic series, Samuel's personality has changed somewhat. He no longer speaks about various conspiracies and does not seem to hate Misty as he even saves her life at one point. Although he still dislikes her and Marlton slightly, he is willing to work as a team with them in order to accomplish their goal of securing the Kronorium.
Quotes[]
- "According to Marlton, this design offers longer barrel length, while shortening weapon length. Now, how the FUCK does that work?" - Getting an MTAR
- "Answer me this, Misty. Why Marlton? I know there's not a lot of men to choose from, but come on! Marlton?!" - Reviving Misty

Trivia[]
- He lost a big toe in a shotgun accident.
- He once had a cat called Fluffy, but it died when Sam didn't unwrap it in time.
- He says Quick Revive tastes like horse puke, even though horses are unable to vomit.
- His quote, "Why won't you die?!", can be heard in the end trailer for Nuketown Zombies.
- In one of his quotes, Sam pronounces his surname "Stuh-lin-ger", though the other characters say it as "Stoo-lin-jer."
- He mentions in TranZit that his favorite food is cheese, and he mentions at the end of Mined Games that he hates salad.
- Unlike the other characters, Stuhlinger likes pistols, reacting favorably towards the Executioner and Colt Python, as well as both single and dual FN Five-seven and B23R pistols (yet he reacts negatively to the single Five-seven in Die Rise).
- In "Classified", there is a hidden message from Stuhlinger to Richtofen, asking where Richtofen has been, stating that the latter has been "out of his head" for a very long time, and that they've been stuck in a filthy, run down place.
- Due to the Tag der Toten ending showing all of Victis being banished to the Dark Aether, it is unknown what this message was meant to imply, if anything at all. It is also unknown when or how the message was sent.
- He does not like his team; when drinking Quick Revive, he asks Richtofen, "So you want me to use this to keep the others alive... but WHY, though?".
- However, he does have significant tolerance of Russman compared to the other two.
- Although Sam and Misty hate each other, Sam makes several remarks which confirm that he would love to have sex with her. When reviving Misty in Tag der Toten, he may ask her why she has a crush on Marlton of all people. This could also be why Sam dislikes Marlton.
