December 5 will mark the debut of Creature Commandos, the animated series that will officially kick off the new DC Universe created by James Gunn. This project, intended for an adult audience, has already captured the attention of fans, especially for some rumors that hint at the possibility of a historic moment for the franchise: Batman's debut in this shared universe. According to rumors leaked online, the Dark Knight could make a brief appearance in the series, but only in the form of a silhouette. There will be no voice or actor assigned to the role, but his presence, even if fleeting, would have an important symbolic weight, giving a first taste of what we could expect from a future live-action debut of the character.


Creature Commandos: the first step for the new DCU

Creature Commandos is an ambitious project that brings together a group of unusual and charismatic characters, including Rick Flag Sr. (played by Frank Grillo), Princess Ilana Rostovic (Maria Bakalova), Dr. Phosphorus (Alan Tudyk), Eric Frankenstein (David Harbour) and G.I. Robot (Sean Gunn). The series, which will be available on Max, aims to offer a mix of action, dark humor, and adult storytelling, laying the foundations for future productions of the DCU. James Gunn has stated several times that the DC Universe he is building will have a strong coherence between the various media, from animated series to films. 

For this reason, Creature Commandos is not just an isolated project, but the first piece of a larger narrative that will see some of the characters from the animated series also appear in live-action in the coming years. With a strong cast and fans’ attention focused on the Dark Knight’s shadow, Creature Commandos is shaping up to be an unmissable event. If Batman does make an appearance, even for a few moments, it could pave the way for new and ambitious adventures in the DC Universe that Gunn is building. Anticipation for December 5 is higher than ever, and fans are ready to see how this new chapter will (literally) animate the DC Universe.
