Creature Commandos

The Creature Commandos are a fictional team of super soldiers featured in DC Comics. They are essentially a team of monstrous beings created through scientific experimentation for military purposes, often operating as a black ops unit.

• Origin: The team was originally created during World War II as a top-secret project called Project M, led by Professor%20Mazursky.

• Original Roster: The initial team consisted of:

  • Lt.%20Matthew%20Shrieve: A normal human soldier leading the team.
  • Warren%20Griffith (Frankenstein): Based on Frankenstein's monster, possessing superhuman strength and resilience.
  • Dr.%20Medusa (Medusa): A woman transformed into a Gorgon-like creature with snake hair and the ability to turn people to stone.
  • G.I.%20Robot (Robotman): A mechanical soldier with advanced weaponry.
  • Vincent%20Velcoro (Wolfpack): A werewolf.

• Purpose: They were deployed on dangerous missions against the Axis powers, often involving supernatural or experimental threats.

• Later Iterations: The Creature Commandos concept has been revived and reimagined in later DC storylines, often with different members and mission parameters. These later versions are typically even more grotesque and morally ambiguous.

• Black Ops: The team often operates outside the law, undertaking missions that would be considered unethical or illegal if carried out by conventional military forces. They are the go-to team for missions that require unconventional solutions.

• Modern Depictions: Recent interpretations of the Creature Commandos sometimes involve Amanda Waller and Task Force X (the Suicide Squad), suggesting a connection to other morally compromised teams within the DC Universe. The team members in these versions often are criminals forced into service.
