The first two episodes of Creature Commandos premiered on Max on December 5, 2024. The release of the show officially marks the beginning of the brand-new DC Universe being shaped by DC Studio. It establishes a new continuity under which all new films, shows, and games will take place. The series is created by James Gunn, the co-president of DC Studios.
With James Gunn creating Creature Commandos, fans will of course expect a soundtrack that they can vibe to. Gunn is famously known for assembling some great soundtracks filled with licensed music that fits with the tone of his films, for example: the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Guardians of the Galaxy films, The Suicide Squad, and Peacemaker.
While the original score for the show is made by Kevin Jiner and Clint Mansell, Creature Commandos, as expected, also features licensed music. So, if any song stood out to you from the show, then the list below will help tell you what it is.
