James doesn’t miss this time either, surprising fans and critics alike as Creature Commandos debuts on Rotten Tomatoes with a behemoth score of a perfect 100%, currently holds 94% certified and 79% from critics and fans, respectively. James Gunn chooses to start with the show as its theme is not that hard to take in and can easily be comprehended by garnishing it with his style, humor, hilariousness, jokes, songs, and more aspects that keep the show’s theme delightful, and entertaining.
The Summary
Creature Commandos begins with an anchor announcing on live TV that Circe (played by Anya Chalotra) and her battalion Invaded Pokolistan (the reason yet unknown for this invasion), and later Amanda Waller explains to Rick Flag Sr (played by Frank Grillo)the political relations between the US and Pokolistan, and they must protect its princess Ilana Rostovik (played by Maria Bakalova). Then they assemble a group of monsters, which consists of The Bride (played by Indira Verma), Weasel (voiced by Sean Gunn), Dr. Phosphorus (by Alan Tudyk), Nina Mazursky (by Zoe Chao), led by Rick Flag Sr.
The features of Creature Commandos
After the story, the main focus of the show, one can easily say, having experienced two of the episodes, that animation is a major asset of the show that feels with the very beginning; the art, and motions of characters feel good along the way. When Rick Flag Sr and the squad enter Pokolistan, we see the structure and art of the city. There is also a night look at the city just before the fight between Rick Flag Sr and Dr. Phosphorus, which looks so good at night as well, with the moon shining bright behind the castle of Pokolistan.
Speaking of the fight between Rick Flag Sr and Dr. Phosphorus we see how perfectly James Gunn and the crew executed the fight scenes, which are also the plus point of the show. The green fire that rises from Dr. Phosphorus looks cooler when he picks up a fight with Rick Flag Sr. The second fight scene comes at the end of episode 2, which was fought between Circe and The Bride; it also looks so dashing, with the animation quality looking even brighter; the purple aura that circles Circe’s hands looks good, and the blasts she had on The bride as well.
So Far, the start of the first entry of the DCU comes with a bang; the DCU’s debut isn’t just a start — it’s an explosion, setting the stage for a thrilling new era, and for the upcoming projects, particularly for Superman releases on July 11, 2025, the actual start of the DCU. James Gunn again confirms that Creature Commandos is a soft start for the DCU and Superman is the hard one, responding to a fan.
