HBO has ordered a second season of James Gunn‘s animated DC Comics series, “Creature Commandos.”

“Thanks to the brilliant imagination of James and the talent of our amazing artists, DC fans fell in love with this new family of heroes,” Peter Girardi, Warner Bros. Animation executive, said. “We are excited to continue this wild ride with our partners at Max. You want more monsters, you’re getting more monsters!”

The show includes Indira Varma as The Bride, Frank Grillo as Rick Flag Sr., David Harbour as Frankenstein, Zoe Chao as Nina Mazursky, Alan Tudyk as Doctor Phosphorus, Sean Gunn as GI Robot and Weasel, Maria Bakalova as Princess Ilana, Steve Agee as Economos, and Viola Davis as Amanda Waller.

“We’re thrilled to team up with Max for another season of ‘Creature Commandos’ mayhem,” Gunn and DC Studios co-head Peter Safran said in a statement. “From our spectacular first season of ‘Peacemaker’ to the astonishing run of ‘The Penguin’ to the record-breaking launch of ‘Creature Commandos,’ Max has consistently delivered above industry expectations and beyond our wildest imaginings.” 

“Only James Gunn could have conjured this wild band of misfit monsters who tug at your heart and force you to root passionately for them,” HBO & Max comedy programming head Amy Gravitt said. “We couldn’t be more delighted to continue their stories with James, Dean Lorey, Peter Safran and our fantastic partners at DC Studios and Warner Bros. Animation.”
