The first official entry of James Gunn's new DCU begins this Thursday with a two-episode premiere, with the season as a whole currently sitting at an impressive 95% on Rotten Tomatoes. Not to mention, at least one character (Rick Flag Sr., voiced/played by Frank Grillo), if not more, will appear in the live-action Superman next July (while other characters are set to make their live-action debuts in additional future DCU projects). In other words, it sounds like this is definitely worth checking out, for multiple reasons...

Quote:

Creature Commandos takes place shortly after Peacemaker season one, as Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) sidesteps the congressional ruling that she can no longer enlist human prisoners for A.R.G.U.S.'s dangerous missions by now using imprisoned monsters. As a result, Waller hands a new operation and team to Rick Flag Sr. (Frank Grillo), the father of the fallen Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman), who was murdered by Peacemaker/Christopher Smith (John Cena) in Gunn's DC debut, The Suicide Squad (2021). Grillo's older Flag will also play a key role in the upcoming Superman film and second season of Peacemaker, all of which serves as an example of the kind of synergy that Gunn hopes to maintain between animation and live-action.

Watched the first two yesterday, and it's very much a James Gunn show. They laid out a few compelling storylines, like Frankenstein and the Bride. The Sons of Themyscira thing is hilarious.

I will say I kind of wish we didn't already know that the Bride and Nina survive

I enjoyed the first two episodes a ton. Gunn is a master craftsman at making things weird and fun.

And given who he is in this, it will be interesting to see Frank Grillo's character in Peacemaker S2.
