In this edgy DC animated series, a secret team of incarcerated monsters is the last resort for missions deemed too dangerous for humans.

Critics Consensus

Bearing writer James Gunn's trademark penchant for kooky humor and lovable characters, Creature Commandos marks an auspicious debut for the DCU.

For anyone who has some stamina left for metahuman fare, it’ll likely do something truly remarkable: leave them eager for whatever comes next.

Now he’s at it again with Creature Commandos, and while the third time isn’t exactly the charm, its easy-going, character-first approach to another story about incarcerated criminals thrust together to save the world largely works to its advantage.

... A fun, endearing start to a new cinematic universe that offers gore, thrills, laughs, and emotions galore.

As a project that’s announcing Gunn’s new vision for the DC Universe, Creature Commandos feels like a tired formula rather than a bold new concept. And that’s a problem.

Neither a monstrous misfire, nor a monster hit. It’s a generally enjoyable animated series that, like Frankenstein’s monster, feels cobbled together from multiple parts.

While its scale and scope make for a modest intro to the new DCU, Creature Commandos still delivers a devilishly entertaining first impression.

Really good show that introduces us to brand new characters in the DCU and DC as a whole that probably didn’t know these characters even existed. I love how each episode showed a detailed origin story for each character and showed you why you should care about them

I quite enjoyed this beginning animation into the DCU! My favorite characters were GI Robot & The Bride for sure! Loved seeing our first glimpse of Batman. The fight scenes in this were really good and very well done. I’m looking forward to Creature Commandos Season 2!

I really enjoyed Creature Commandoes and seeing all these characters that I was never familiar with before. I loved the origin stories they had for each character to show audiences more in depth about these unfamiliar characters. Personally my favorite origin story is GI Robot. I loved the action scenes in the show and they were really well done. Overall this was a very fun and enjoyable watch and I can’t wait for season 2! 8/10

Twisty, interesting story and flawed but empathetic characters. Hoping for a second season.
