Yes, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mensjournal.com\/entertainment\/superman-director-james-gunn-explains-why-movie-industry-dying\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:James Gunn;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">James Gunn <\/a>rebooted the DCU with the animated show <em>Creature Commandos <\/em>in 2024 and with the feature film <em>Superman<\/em> in the summer of 2025. And yet, vestiges of the old DCEU (the ad-hoc name given by the press to the previous DC Comics shared cinematic universe) remained in Gunn&#8217;s new DCU. Specifically, projects that he was connected to, I.E., the 2021 film <em>The Suicide Squad<\/em>, and the 2022 series <em>Peacemaker <\/em>Season 1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">But, in the past three years, and really, in the past few months, a ton has changed with this evolving shared universe, which is proving to be messier and stranger than the MCU, a comic book universe in which Gunn thrived, writing and directing all three <em>Guardians of the Galaxy <\/em>films. And, the success of both <em>Superman<\/em> and <em>Peacemaker<\/em> Season 2 has proven that Gunn is good at defying expectations about superhero narratives. This is especially true in the shocking events of <em>Peacemaker<\/em> Season 2, Episode 6, &#8220;Ignorance is Chris.&#8221; Here&#8217;s the deranged secret this episode revealed and why Gunn&#8217;s DCU will never be the same.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\"><em>Peacemaker <\/em>reveals the horrible nature of the other dimension<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">At the end of &#8220;Ignorance is Chris,&#8221; as Adebayo (Danielle Brooks) goes for a walk, we suddenly realize that this dimension is straight-up racist. Harcourt (Jennifer Holland) points out to Chris (John Cena) what fans have been noticing for weeks: There&#8217;s not a single non-white person anywhere in the alternate dimension.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">And then, Chris turns over the American flag and realizes it has a Swastika on it.
