He describes her as a sorceress who might \u201cburrow a hole in the planet\u201d if they broke up. This confirms that June still possessed magical powers, contradicting her fate in the 2016 Suicide Squad film. In that movie, June was freed from Enchantress at the conclusion and appeared powerless.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Episode 3 also connects directly to the timeline of James Gunn\u2019s The Suicide Squad (2021). Harcourt tells Rick that he is shipping out to Corto Maltese in a few hours. This places the flashback immediately before the mission where Peacemaker kills him. Footage from the 2021 film is replayed in montage, further integrating those events into the DCU canon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Rick\u2019s line about June directly reframes elements of David Ayer\u2019s Suicide Squad. In that film, Rick and June shared a romantic relationship, and she carried the Enchantress within her. By acknowledging her sorcery in Peacemaker Season 2, the series shows that Ayer\u2019s version of events either never happened or unfolded differently. The revelation creates another retcon after the earlier Justice League\/Gang joke in Peacemaker Season 1 and shifts how past films fit into the new DCU.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The dialogue shows that Rick and Harcourt shared intimacy before his deployment, though they never committed to a relationship. Rick offers to leave June if Harcourt wants to pursue him. Harcourt refuses and points out that they were probably each other\u2019s only friends. Rick answers that hooking up had already complicated their bond. The scene closes with Harcourt pushing him to get dressed for the mission that ultimately leads to his death.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This flashback confirms that in DCU canon, June Moone was still the Enchantress before the Corto Maltese operation, with her powers intact.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Originally reported by Anubhav Chaudhry on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.superherohype.com\/news\/625413-peacemaker-season-2-suicide-squad-enchantress-retcon\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:SuperHeroHype;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">SuperHeroHype<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.comingsoon.net\/tv\/news\/2024049-peacemaker-season-2-suicide-squad-enchantress-retcon\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Peacemaker Season 2 Retcons DECU With This Suicide Squad Villain;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Peacemaker Season 2 Retcons DECU With This Suicide Squad Villain<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.comingsoon.net\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:ComingSoon.net - Movie Trailers, TV &amp; Streaming News, and More;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">ComingSoon.net &#8211; Movie Trailers, TV &amp; Streaming News, and More<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peacemaker Season 2 has introduced a major retcon, with Episode 3 revealing details that suggest David Ayer\u2019s Suicide Squad either never happened as shown or played out very differently.
