I have not been a huge fan of the character of Peacemaker in the comics.\u00a0 Like Harley Quinn, I really didn’t see the fuss until there were some changes and growth in the character.\u00a0 I didn’t like Peacemaker in the movie Suicide Squad\u00a0<\/em>and I only watched about an episode and a half of season one of the show.<\/p>\n With James Gunn now the lord and master of DC TV & movies, I figured I would give S2 a look as I was reading that events would tie into future storytelling.\u00a0 I’m glad I did.\u00a0 I think John Cena has done a really good acting job with the character, and like Harleen Quinzel, Christopher Smith is actually pretty interesting.\u00a0 The supporting characters each have something compelling or interesting about them as well.<\/p>\n There are a couple of elements from DC storytelling that get set up in S2, so I am glad I watched.\u00a0 While I’ve read most everything of the big storylines from DC in the last 40 years, most times when watching a show it just gives me a ‘ping’ that something is coming from comics source material. Thank goodness for the internet to help refresh my memory!<\/p>\n One warning about this series is that the language, situations, and visuals (nudity, sex, violence) can be extreme and it’s definitely not a show for most kids younger than late teens.<\/p>\n The internet already tells me James Gunn has said there are no plans for a season three but that the characters and setups matter to other projects. It’s going to be quite the ride to see what Gunn picks from to make his DC Universe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have not been a huge fan of the character of Peacemaker in the comics.\u00a0 Like Harley Quinn, I really didn’t see the fuss until there were some changes and growth in the character.\u00a0 I didn’t like Peacemaker in the movie Suicide Squad\u00a0and I only watched about an episode and a half of season one … Continue reading “Peacemaker<\/i> Season 2 (2025, HBO Max)”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":504,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[36,37,29],"class_list":["post-503","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-short-take","tag-comics","tag-dc","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/503","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=503"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/503\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":505,"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/503\/revisions\/505"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/504"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=503"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=503"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/johntilden.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=503"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
