In his four-star review of the series premiere Neil said “Creature Commandos fires out of the gate with a meticulous first episode which sets up strong character arcs as well as a mission capable of carrying us through the seven-episode season. As mission statements go, James Gunn certainly knows how to tell the audience to expect the unexpected.”
