James Gunn launches Creature Commandos as first series in new DC Universe

James Gunn's new animated series, *Creature Commandos*, has launched on Max as the first installment of his revamped DC Universe. The seven-part series features a team of unconventional heroes who must collaborate despite their differences. Gunn created the show without a formal deal, writing all seven episodes himself. He selected characters from the *Creature Commandos* comics, including Doctor Phosphorus, and aimed for a mix of humor and action, resulting in an adult-themed series. The voice cast includes actors who may also portray their characters in live-action adaptations. While a second season is uncertain, Gunn expressed interest in continuing the story in various formats, including potential movies.
