‘Creature Commandos’ Is a Strong Start to James Gunn’s DCU: TV Review
Adult animated Max series 'Creature Commandos' marks a strong start to James Gunn's reboot of the DC Universe.
Officially, the show’s debut on Max marks the kickoff of filmmaker James Gunn and producer Peter Safran’s reboot of the DC Universe, symbolized by a new opening sting of Superman busting out of some chains. (The “Guardians of the Galaxy” director began his tenure at DC as a hired — pun sort of intended — gun, delivering the quasi-remake “The Suicide Squad” just five years after David Ayer’s version, and then creating the “Peacemaker” spinoff series for Max.) But as the larger plot rolls along, dispatching the Commandos to a fictional Eastern European nation to protect its Princess Ilana (Maria Bakalova) against the sorceress Circe (Anya Chalotra), Gunn gives each member of the team a spotlight via flashbacks.
