Sample reviews

AV Club - B+

Even with all these messy feelings and messier body parts flying around, Gunn’s monster mash achieves the level of gravitas it so often seeks. Even when he’s running in circles, the guy still knows how to deliver cheap thrills.

Collider - 8/10

If this series is any indication, the future of the DC Universe is in very good hands.

Comicbook.com - 5/5

Creature Commandos channels the quintessential heart and dark humor that have become calling cards of James Gunn’s found-family stories, and delivers the best possible start to the budding DCU.

Discussing Film - 3.5/5

Creature Commandos is a colorful and action-packed introduction to the new DCU franchise, but it also already feels like creator James Gunn is repeating old lazy habits.

Looper.com - 7.5/10

Gunn knows how to keep this material entertainingly twisted while still treating his silly characters with emotional sincerity. The only major downside is that the show is doing almost nothing new.

Total Film - 4/5

While it’s easy to compare and contrast with Gunn’s other works, Creature Commandos stands on its own. Yes, it’s the same formula that we’ve come to expect from Gunn, but there’s just something different here.

How will they handle Static Shock if he's introduced in the DCU.

how would they handle his character? because and some people might not agree with me on this but allot of the Issues/problems that the show dealt with while great for its time are very outdated. Racism is not as bad as it used to be and heck its barely an issue in our modern day.

James Gunn makes reference to the WBD team and David Zaslav "who has kept every promise he's ever made to me" -- what do you think those promises are?

Had Cavill stayed as Superman?

So let's say instead of DC Universe rebooting Black Adam was a success, and WB tries to make mos2, but instead of hiring Snyder to direct it, Cavill and WB chose Christopher MqChicken, director of mi6 7 and the upcoming one to make Mos sequel and make Superman more optimistic much like how Joss Whedon's superman was. Would that make fans of Cavill and Snyder happy or furious? There still won't be zsjl2 and 3, but there will be more Superman with Cavill.

What are your thoughts?

We know the justice league cameo is now retconned but are the mentions of batman, green arrow, superman, Wonder Woman, flash, Aquaman, kiteman, joker, riddler, mad hatter ,batmite etc still canon to the new dcu and can anyone ask James Gunn on his socials if they are?

James Gunn doesn't talk to actors about a project until he's 100% their character will be in it. "[Frank Grillo] was in every draft of Superman from the beginning but I didn't tell him until I was absolutely sure that character wasn't going to be cut..."

What’s your idea?

My idea: Supergirl has to cover Superman’s tradition of flying in the Metropolis Christmas Tree for a year and learns the true meaning of Christmas.

Doomsday fun fact.

Something I realize about BvS's doomsday design is that he doesn't have a neck. We all know Doomsday can't be killed the same way twice. And Doomsday in BvS is a combination of Lex and Zod.

And how does Zod died that's right by getting his neck snapped?bravo Snyder.
