My friend is a casual watcher and he couldn’t tell what has been changed in the recap even though he watched the season 1 just a month ago before watching Superman. He said that he remembers the Justice Gang scene being there in season 1.

Seriously? I just did a Peacemaker marathon on HBO Max and the Justice League scene is very much there with the "you fuck fish" thing.

u/crazycraft24 1d ago
He didn’t follow DCEU. Peacemaker was his second DC watch(after Creature Commandos). He just recalled that a bunch of people showed up at the end of S1.

u/No_Independent8195 1d ago
To be fair, I don't really follow it either. I've been dicing with Creature Commandos because...I'm just really not into animated stuff but have watched the animated JL/Superman/Batman movies. I'm not really familiar with any of the characters there either.

kind of retcon but kinda not because "previously in the dcu" so it's immediately established as a different universe

The one surprise for me was Supergirl. I did not get the impression that Supergirl was a public figure yet when watching Superman.

u/zakary3888 1d ago
Yeah, like you’d think Lex would’ve brought her up in one of his rants

I suppose it's possible she's "active" but not necessarily "public" about who and what she is yet.

Or maybe she was visiting the Fortress when Superman got the call from the Justice Gang, and Supes just said, "Hey, up for a field trip?"

Yeah, but if you’re binge watching and go from season 1 right into 2, it’d be nice to have the correct ending in there.

i really don't want james gunn to george lucas season 1. I kind of like the way they did this (recapping it and show what's different) and would love it if they address the dceu vs dcu differences in s2 and even if they don't, it'll still be a good time for me. i don't need everything explained lol
for example, the fans are going to want s1 eagley back and not s2 eagley lol

Wait, everybody? Can’t some of the members stay? Like Superman?
Fine. (Releases Superman 2025)
What about Batman??
That’s not how the spell works.
So, you’ll use Battinson instead?? Matt Reeves is not going to like that.
Okay, fine! (Announces Brave and the Bold casting)
Any chance Wonder Woman will return?
Stop tampering with the spell!
But, then you have Jason Momoa as Lobo. Won’t he still play as Aquaman?? And, then Flash, too? I mean, he screwed it up himself in Hawaii. What about Cyborg??
STOP TALKING!!! (The Batman II and Brave and the Bold releases at the same year which causes a “huge” misunderstanding)
What just happened??
Before what you wish for! You know that spell you botched when you wanted everybody to forget the Justice League existed at the end of Peacemaker… Well, we started to get some visitors. (Various characters of The Suicide Squad from the old DCEU start to cross over to the new DCU)

u/sunnykhandelwal5 1d ago
So it is possible that we saw season 1 where peacemaker was in the snyderverse. And then now we’re seeing a (different) peacemaker that exists in the DCU where all the same events happen except and he calls justice gang at the end instead of JLU. No memory wiping is required for this

u/JukeTheHitbox 1d ago
Straight up what we're seeing is just an alternate universe. I've got this inckling that Peacemaker season 2 is actually just a parallel timeline. Meaning there could be a moment where DCU Peacemaker actually comes across the DCEU Peacemaker in some way shape or form. Gonna have to see how the season plays out😎👍

u/Ozaaaru 1d ago
Who cares, what actually matters is if he can do a good DCU. I don't think he can after watcching Superman Legacy and seeing him green light so many projects so fast. The MCU had this exact problem of too much to keep up with, it was and still is, detrimental to the general audiences.
Why would Gunn think and assume his version will be any different? Actually what's worse is that Gunn is fast tracking the "too much too soon" plan off the bat instead of following the footsteps of phase 1 MCU with the solo Films first with no shows that lead into a JL film.
Gunn's DCU is already too scattered with different timelines, character ages and event dates that it's already pushed itself into many potholes that Gunn needs to pull himself out of now.

u/Razorspades 1d ago
Too much too soon? All we have this year is two shows and one movie. Next year is Supergirl and Clayface for films and Lanterns is the only known show for next year. It isn't that overwhelming. We just know a bunch of the projects coming up is all.
-2
u/Ozaaaru 1d ago edited 1d ago
Yes but once 2026 stuff comes that turns into 3 shows to keep up with, then the 2 films right, that's already a lot for the GA to keep track of.
I'm personally good with the 2026 DCU slate as it's simple with just Lanterns as the show but even then, I don't see the GA tuning in to projects like Clayface, the Authority, Waller, swamp thing, booster gold, paradise lost, Maybe Teen Titans & Lanterns are the only shows I see a huge turn out for but the rest are highly questionable.
This is what I'm talking about when I said "too much too soon" plan. A lot of these characters the GA don't have a damn clue about and most likely won't be interested to tune into if it becomes homework.
This is what happened to the MCU. It started easy with Agents of Shield then went over board with characters and ensembles, but that was AFTER the success of the Phase 1 - 3 of the infinity saga.
Gunn hasn't even started filming WW, Batman, Green Lantern & Flash solo films to do a JL film yet but he thinks he can get the GA to tune into all these other lesser known to the public characters to maybe stick around for a JL film by 2035 the latest. I don't buy the BS cope that people are shouting.

I don't know if you also had these memes in english, but when DSitMoM released, it originated a lot of memes in hispanic countries with Strange fucking up the spell while saying "AAAH IT'S TOO MUCH S*X/THE S*X IS OUT OF CONTROL". That also happened to James Gunn's spell for sure.

u/Imaginary_Unit5109 1d ago
If still want to create his own justice league still. It why he named them Justice Gang which i believe is not apart of the comics. So he made a new team for his movies and show. While, he could have choose the Guardians, Justice Society. He made up his own team name because he plan to used the other teams for future projects.

"Entire World". Such an indulgent and ignorant post by OP. Literally Superman tanked in international markets, when he is supposed to be the most known DCU hero besides Batman. Nobody outside the reddit/X nerd community have ever heard about Peacemaker or care about it, and then such a hubris that people actually would care who appeared in climax for some thing non existent is downright funny.
