CREATURE COMMANDOS Animated Series To Kick-Start The DCU

James Gunn and Peter Safran have announced the first part of their DCU slate, and an animated series based on obscure monster team the Creature Commandos will be the first project out of the gate...

If you've never heard of the Creature Commandos, you're probably not alone!

The obscure monster-based team debuted as a short-lived DC Comics series back in the '80s, and even though there's been a couple of revivals in the decades since, the group has largely remained forgotten.

However, that's all about to change with the premiere of a new Creature Commandos animated series!

DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran announced the first chapter of their new DCU slate, titled Gods and Monsters, on Tuesday, and the former revealed that a seven-episode animated show based on the exploits of the gruesome group will kick-start this new era of DC Comics-based content.

We don't have a premiere date just yet, but we do know that Gunn has already written the show, and the roster will consist of: Rick Flag Sr. - not to be confused with the late Suicide Squad character - along with Batman villain Doctor Phosphorus, The Suicide Squad's Weasel, Project M scientist Nina Mazursky, and Eric Frankenstein and his blushing Bride.

You can check out a first look at the team below.
