I've always loved the DC universe and while I think the DCEU was overhated, I was very disappointed with several of the DCEU projects. This series has fantastic characters and is extremely creative. I think when James Gunn says that superhero movies and tv have become too generic, that's the key right their. Their have been so many superhero movies in the last decade that when people see a new one has come out they don't go to theaters because they think "another superhero movie geez their have been way too many" as their all the same, just a generic action movie (Especially sequals) I think James gunn is really going to turn things around and I cannot wait for it. I also think that because marvel has been much more popular, DC has a lot of great characters who have been overlooked (by fans) and I think if everything in DC works out in it's next couple of years then lesser known characters will be able to do well at the box office as long as they can grasp people's attention and really have a special feel to them. But yeah this was a great start and I only see it getting better from here.

I really liked this at the start. Funny, violent and exciting, with an entertaining collection of misfits.

But as it went forward, I began to have my doubts. The first issue is the basic structure, with each episode alternating between the story arc and the individual tragic backstories of the creatures. There was a sameness to it. It's not that the structure is inherently bad (Lost did a great job with it), it's just that these stories were both predictable and depressing. It's like Suicide Squad except half of them aren't even criminals, just victims stuck in a nightmare.

The series keeps getting darker, both in its horrific body count of innocent bystanders and well-meaning soldiers and in its stories, with the final one being just tragedy upon tragedy.

While Creature Commandos seemed like a lot of fun in the beginning, by the end most of the fun had been drowned in darkness.

I'm so bummed out after watching the final episode of season 1 that I'm hesitant to recommend this, but I guess I did enjoy it overall. Still, it's a disappointment from the generally on-point James Gunn.

It is a fast-paced, 7-episode animated series adapted from DC Comics that packs a punch with its crisp storytelling and unique character introductions. The blend of humor, action, and backstories-told parallel to the present-day plot-keeps things engaging without disrupting the flow. The animation style stands out, and the background score adds the perfect vibe to the chaos.

While there's a lot to enjoy, the series feels a bit rushed. The story moves so quickly that some moments don't get the depth they deserve. Being a series, it had room to breathe, but instead wraps up a little too hastily, leaving a sense of something missing.

Still, it's an entertaining watch-fresh, fun, and a promising entry into DC's universe.

James Gunn has done it again, his style is still unmatched even after all this years and copycats along the way. The way he write characters has only improve in every new project he makes, he manages to balance goofy with tragic for every main character and villan, and this is the best example yet (with that crazy and heartbreaking final plot twist), especially Dr Phosporus and The Bride, they were totally the best characters in the entire show, not only as protagonist, but as a way to expand the DCU. One negative I have with the show is that the actual plot felt that it wasn't going anywhere until the final episode, and that Nina and Frankenstein didn't advance much as characters (aside from their flashbacks). Hopefully now that the team is already stablished, they will focus more on develop them more in future seasons.

I honestly have no complaints, other than I wish the episodes were longer.

The fact that this is an adult animated series is fantastic. Content like this gives DC an advantage with older audiences. Especially since Marvel is their competitor, and they're reluctant to engage in it, regarding TV shows and movies, as their soul is owned by the mouse. Family-friendly stuff can get old, and boring. Sometimes I want something that isn't intended for younger audiences.

I love all the characters, and their backstories so far. I thoroughly enjoy that they're not overused characters we've seen a thousand times before. I love the jokes, I love the dialogue. I love the animation, artwork, and character designs. I love the voice actors. The story is intriguing, and I'm always excited and anticipating the next episode. I definitely recommend the series. I love what James Gunn is providing.

I really, really hope that this is renewed for a second season, and continues on after that.
