When James Gunn announced the first chapter of the DCU, he revealed that the first project to release was an animated series called, “The Creature Commandos.” Legendary comic book writer J.M. DeMatteis, the co-creator of the “Creature Commandos,” went online to share his excitement.

DeMatteis co-created the Creature Commandos with artist Pat Broderick in November of 1980. The Creature Commandos are a team of monsters in the DC universe that fought in World War II.

“It’s amazing that, after all these years…Decades! These obscure characters from so early in my career are having a comeback.” said DeMatteis, “I look forward to seeing what [James] Gunn & Company have planned.”

When James Gunn wrote and directed “The Suicide Squad” and its spin-off show “Peacemaker,” he made it a point to reference the creators of the stories he was adapting. In “The Suicide Squad,” writer John Ostrander made a cameo as Dr. Fitzgibbon. In “Peacemaker,” Gunn refenced comic book artist Alan Kupperburg, who passed away in 2015. His brother Paul Kupperburg wrote the entire “Peacemaker” run and part of the “Vigilante” run.

J.M. DeMatteis was asked on twitter, “How excited are you for the Creature Commandos project, and would you do a voice cameo if you were asked?” DeMatteis replied by saying, “Very and yes!”
