Creature Commandos Score Details “James Gunn's Creature Commandos gets the DC Universe off to a colorful, encouraging start.” Pros Cons Creature Commandos fits nicely within creator James Gunn‘s growing superhero oeuvre.
Picking up sometime after the events of The Suicide Squad, Creature Commandos finds A.R.G.U.S. leader Amanda Waller forbidden from forcing any more incarcerated humans to join another one of her cannon-fodder task forces. Rather than letting this development stop her, though, Amanda responds by taking advantage of an inconceivable loophole. She assembles a new team made up entirely of nonhuman prisoners.
Eric is, like all of Creature Commandos‘ characters, painted with broad strokes by Gunn, but his story is also dutifully filled in. Each of Creature Commandos‘ seven episodes, in fact, function as both present-day continuations of its ongoing plot and flashback-heavy origin stories that explore the characters’ pasts. This structure is established early on in Creature Commandos, and Gunn, who wrote all seven of its episodes, sticks unerringly to it.
Creature Commandos occasionally suffers as well from some of the same moments of tonal whiplash that have dragged down Gunn’s projects ever since 2017’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. The show’s Weasel-centric episode, for instance, attempts to bounce from scenes of startling darkness to lighter comedic gags, but it doesn’t pull off those transitions as seamlessly as it intends.
