Creature Commandos

The long-awaited James Gunn & Peter Safran relaunch of the DC Universe has finally taken flight. Not with Gunn's upcoming Superman movie, mind you, but with "Creature Commandos," an animated series centered around a monster team going on globe-trotting missions to save the world. It may seem like a new version of Gunn's "The Suicide Squad," but animated and with a team of lesser-known stature. And in several cases, "Creature Commandos" is exactly that. However, James Gunn, who penned all eight episodes, capitalizes on his unique skill set as a character writer/storyteller and delivers an exciting series that's sure to make this C-tier DC team into the newly minted DCU's "A-Team".
