To date, the fresh DCU includes the animated series “Creature Commandos” and the summer’s “Superman”, both penned by Gunn. The upcoming “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow” is being worked on for a 2026 release, while “Peacemaker” Season 2 (another creation of Gunn) has just unveiled its first trailer.

By rescuing Bob from his Void identity, they also saved New York City. With Valentina facing impeachment, she cleverly turned the Thunderbolts into her own newly formed superhero squad instead.
