Story Continuity and Timing within the DC Universe
Season two of Creature Commandos is expected to follow the timeline established by previous DC projects. Gunn confirmed that the new episodes take place after the events depicted in Peacemaker season two, tying the narrative to the larger universe’s continuity. The recent introduction of Salvation, a covert prison for Metahumans featured in Peacemaker, may play a significant role in the upcoming season.
With Dean Lorey stepping in as the new showrunner, some shifts from Gunn’s original vision could emerge, although Gunn’s influence likely remains strong given his extensive control over the Creature Commandos series. This change may bring fresh creative directions while maintaining ties to Gunn’s broader DC Universe plans.
Currently, the first season of Creature Commandos is available for streaming on Max, where viewers can catch up before season two arrives. Fans should stay alert for further announcements regarding release dates and plot details as production continues to advance.
