Current Events > Peacemaker S2 E6 is out *Spoilers*

(+) Yeah! (+)

Saw everyone on Twitter figuring out they were on Nazi World last week, so the twist didn't surprise me. Sucks for Ads, though. I guess Judo man is gonna help her? Cuz I don't see how anyone else could get to her in time.

Seeing Lex was cool.

Adrian meeting Adrian was incredible.

Also I barked out laughing that there was just a literal swastika on the flag. No subtlety at all, and that's perfect.

i dont watch peace maker but curious if the creature commandos cast have shown up

Doubt it.

I think Adrian's Dad is gay in that world but he has to be in the closet because of the Nazis.

Besides Rick Flag Sr., no.

I love that Earth-X Adrian still hates white supremacists and Nazis and is working with the "terrorists" of that universe.

Also, I was not expecting to see Lex fucking Luthor in this show and it makes me wonder if we'll see Superman too. Nicholas Holt is just so damn good as Lex.

good then i wont have to worry about this show having any meaningful impact on season 2 of creature commandos

I predicted this after the ep where Chris went to the other dimension and all the extras were white.

Cool to see Luthor again. Did they put Superman on HBO Max last week to prepare people for this?

James Gunn actually specifically said he moved up Superman's digital release so people can watch it before Peacemaker S2. He also said this season directly ties into Man of Tomorrow.

Yeah definitely see it, dont know why you wouldnt. I loved Creature Commandos, but Peacemaker is just on a whole other level.

If they nail the last few episodes of this season, it might be my favorite James Gunn project of all time, and thats saying a LOT since he has some absolute bangers with GotG and Suicide Squad/Superman.

Not looking forward to the inevitable right-wing podcasters talking about how, all things considered, they'd prefer Earth-X.

Perfect place to send GI Robot to

How did I not notice everyone was white? Man, I feel dumb.

Seriously though the scene between Chris and Harcourt in the holding room was some of the best in the entire series.

The moment Harcourt wavered once he told her "and I still love you".

I love how between this and Creature Commandos, James Gunn isn't afraid to blatantly give the middle finger to Nazi's.

I thought he was great in Superman, and somehow was better in his short appearance in Peacemaker? He really nailed the contempt and underlying rage in the scene.

It's very sad that this is considered controversial these days.

These episodes are way too short. Can't wait till next week.

It's weird how the season's almost over, but it still feels like we're just getting started.

Like, it's paced as if it were a 20-episode season and we're still in the set-up episodes, if that makes sense. Gonna feel empty when it ends.

I agree. Especially when episodes 2, 3, and the first half of 4 could have been just one episode.

Is this show good? I was curious if John Cena was good in this role as I'm a fan.

It's great. John Cena randomly being a really good actor caught everyone by surprise, and he kills it as Peacemaker.

But you'd have to watch The Suicide Squad movie first.

Remember. It's THE Suicide Squad. "The" is an important difference.

Lol Looks like they disabled the Peacemaker dance emote in Fortnite that has you doing part of the season 2 intro, now that the episode is out and it's become clear the arm movements are supposed to resemble swastikas as foreshadowing.

Ha! That's what happens when you try to capitalize on something too quickly.

Not because Epic wouldn't associate themselves with a pose that can be interpreted as Nazi, but because they know as well as the rest of us the number of people who would use that emote to out themselves.

Like a moth to a flame.
