James Gunn has as soon as once more given followers a bit of tease relating to his DCU plans, this time he reveals which characters he ended up reducing from Creature Commandos, and considered one of them is a private favourite of his.
Throughout a Q&A on Threads, a fan requested Gunn if he went by means of a number of character selections earlier than deciding on the ultimate lineup for the animated collection. Gunn confirmed that he did and dropped some attention-grabbing names.
Gunn shared: “I positively thought of Wolfpack, and, particularly, Man-Bat (considered one of my faves). However I knew I needed to inform Weasel’s story, so it felt like too many rabid and fuzzy characters.
“I thought of Vincent Velcoro however needed to decide on a ‘creature’ far outdoors the standard roster from one other a part of DC—so I went with Dr. Phosphorous as an alternative. I additionally thought of Solomon Grundy, one other favourite, however was fairly set on Frankenstein.”
That’s fairly an attention-grabbing lineup of characters that I’d’ve liked to see dropped at life within the present, particularly Man-Bat!
In the meantime, Vincent Velcoro is a scientific vampire who was a part of the Creature Commandos and Solomon Grundy is a supervillain zombie initially launched as a Inexperienced Lantern villain.
Gunn’s reasoning for axing the characters is smart as he needed a wide range of character sorts from throughout completely different corners of the DC universe.
It will’ve been cool to see a few of these character present up within the collection, however possibly they’ll be utilized in aother DC initiatives someplace down the road.
