Peacemaker has quietly placed itself at the center of one of the most exciting discussions in the DC Universe. While the series is packed with its own eccentric energy, season 2 has managed to drop a subtle yet powerful thread that could link directly to Gotham’s Dark Knight. The fans have long been restless about when and how Batman will finally step into James Gunn’s DCU, and now the latest episode of Peacemaker may have laid down the clearest path yet.

Leota Adebayo’s Gotham Roots Explained

The focus lands on Leota Adebayo, a character who has been essential to the series since its first season. Until now, her background was only hinted at, but season 2, episode 2 reveals her ties to Gotham. Through a personal conversation with her ex, Keeya, it comes out that their split was tied to Keeya’s desire to return to Gotham while Adebayo chose to remain in Evergreen. This single detail, though personal, sets Gotham firmly in her story and pushes her character into territory long tied to Batman.

Adebayo Could Be the Bridge Between Peacemaker and Batman

There is also the weight of Adebayo’s family history. She is the daughter of Amanda Waller, one of the most powerful figures in the DCU. Waller’s reach has always stretched across the world of heroes and villains, and in past stories, she was shown to have direct dealings with Batman. Even though the DCU is separate from the old DCEU, Creature Commandos has already confirmed that Batman is active in this new continuity. That means Waller’s network could still easily include him, pulling Adebayo closer to Gotham’s biggest figure.

Adebayo has been shown to work with Waller for years, which makes it reasonable to believe she has crossed paths with major players from Gotham. If Batman is already established in Gunn’s DCU, then Adebayo may have either worked alongside him or been aware of his activities. This indirect but significant tie makes her the strongest link between Peacemaker and the Caped Crusader so far.

Peacemaker’s Subtle Build-Up to the DCU Dark Knight

Peacemaker may not have spelled out Batman’s presence outright, but through Adebayo, the series could be building the most important bridge to Gotham that the DCU has revealed yet, per Screenrant. If Gunn plans to make Batman’s arrival feel natural and connected to the world he is building, then Adebayo’s story might be one of the first stepping stones leading straight to the Dark Knight.
