Creature Commandos Retcons The Suicide Squad's Most Devastating Line

Quick Links Weasel's Introduction in The Suicide Squad Made Him the Worst Villain James Gunn's Weasel Is Very Different from His Comics' Counterpart Creature Commandos Reveals the Weasel's Heartbreaking Origin Story Why Weasel's History in Creature Commandos Is Not a Retcon
The following contains spoilers from Creature Commandos, Season 1, Episode 4, "Chasing Squirrels," now streaming on Max.
The only overlap between Creature Commandos and The Suicide Squad -- both written by James Gunn -- are the characters of Amanda Waller and Weasel. The latter character was only in a few scenes of the film as part of the distraction squad sent into Corto Maltese. Weasel also survived the trip with the Creature Commandos, and viewers learn that a devastating fact about the former Suicide Squad member wasn't true at all.
While it's fair to suggest Creature Commandos' similarity to Gunn's other work is a mistake, he can make the formula work.
