ARGUS recruits him to take down Peacemaker, and fans quickly notice that his love for Cheetos hasn\u2019t gone anywhere.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Kardashians Don\u2019t Exist in the Alternate DCU<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">When Peacemaker mocks Keith\u2019s sense of fashion, he compares it to \u201cThe Kardashians\u2019 furniture.\u201d Keith responds with confusion. He clarifies that in this alternate DC reality, the Kardashians never became the global icons they are in our world.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Michael Rooker\u2019s Red St. Wild<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">James Gunn\u2019s longtime collaborator Michael Rooker officially joins the series as Red St. Wild, an eccentric eagle tracker brought in after Eagly\u2019s rampage. While Rooker previously played Savant in\u00a0The Suicide Squad, this is a brand-new character created for the show.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Rick Flag Jr. Is Back, in Yellow<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Joel Kinnaman\u2019s Rick Flag Jr. makes a surprising return despite his death at the hands of Peacemaker in\u00a0The Suicide Squad. In this alternate world, he never died and even began dating Emilia Harcourt after her breakup with the local Peacemaker.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He sports his signature yellow shirt, tying back to both his comic roots and his cinematic look. Flashbacks also reveal moments with Harcourt before the Corto Maltese mission, cementing his importance to Peacemaker\u2019s legacy.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">June Moone\u2019s Enchantress Still Exists<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Dialogue casually mentions Rick\u2019s girlfriend, June Moone, also known as the Enchantress. Although the 2016\u00a0Suicide Squad\u00a0suggested her magical alter ego was defeated, this reference confirms that the Enchantress still exists in this reality, leaving one of DC\u2019s most dangerous supernatural threats active.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">The Peace-Cycle<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In true comic book fashion, Peacemaker rolls up to ARGUS on his star-spangled \u201cPeace-Cycle.\u201d The red, white, and blue motorcycle feels like a playful mash-up of the Bat-Cycle and Captain America\u2019s ride, fitting perfectly with Peacemaker\u2019s over-the-top patriotism.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">The Mighty Crabjoys<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">A background billboard for \u201cThe Mighty Crabjoys\u201d continues James Gunn\u2019s running gag across the DCU. The fictional punk band has already appeared in\u00a0Creature Commandos\u00a0and\u00a0Superman, making them the most consistent Easter egg of the new canon.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Sons of Liberty<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">A violent extremist group called the Sons of Liberty surfaces in Episode 3, staging bombings and taking over a government building. Pulled from the 1990s\u00a0Superman\u00a0comics, this group represents a dark reflection of hyper-patriotism.<\/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 continues to expand James Gunn\u2019s twisted corner of the DC Universe, and Episode 3 delivers one of the richest sets of Easter eggs yet.
