As previously reported, DC Comics had no presentation planned for San Diego Comic-Con this year because, as DC honcho James Gunn put it, he's too busy directing his new version of Superman. We wondered if DC would find other ways to get some big reveals at the show, and sure enough, the "Jim Lee & Friends" panel debuted the first teaser trailer for Creature Commandos, the animated Max series meant to kick off Gunn's new DC- film and TV continuity. The series features yet another roster for Amanda Waller's Suicide Squad — this time with an all-non-human lineup.
In addition to possibly finally explaining what's going on with Weasel, the bespectacled weirdo voiced and body-acted by Gunn's brother Sean Gunn in the live-action The Suicide Squad movie, the animated series features Viola Davis returning to her role as Amanda Waller (previously seen in Peacemaker, Black Adam and both Suicide Squad films), alongside Peacemaker veteran Steve Agee as John Economos.
