In the initial outing of “Creature Commando”, the immortal sorceress Circe, modeled after the character from Greek mythology, was unveiled as a new adversary in the DC Universe. Known for her prodigious magical abilities, Circe is sometimes regarded as a lesser deity. Her most renowned tale appears in Homer’s “Odyssey”, where she enticed men to her island of Aeaea, transforming them into animals. It’s no surprise that this sorceress eventually became one of Wonder Woman’s formidable enemies. With Circe’s introduction in “Creature Commandos”, she has now been recognized as an official member of the DC Universe. However, it’s interesting to note how she differs from her comic book counterpart, as there have been various depictions of Circe in comics dating back to 1949. As we anticipate her cinematic journey, let’s delve into her comic book origins instead.
