Meanwhile, James Gunn dropped many Easter eggs in episode 1 of Peacemaker, and in this article, we will cover all the potential ones you may have missed!
Peacemaker Season 2 Episode 1 Easter Eggs
Peacemaker Season 2 episode 1 explained the DCU canon, including the new timeline or rebooted version of the DC Universe. The recap showed all the changes made and revealed how Gunn plans to reset things in this superhero universe.
The Justice League was also replaced, and history is rewritten as if it never existed. The new timeline of DCU doesn’t incorporate the Justice League, which is why they were swapped in episode 1 with Hawkgirl and Green Lantern, and the new Justice Gang instead.

White Rabbit, a popular criminal from Gotham City, also made her presence felt. She has the power to duplicate herself physically, and she was spotted crying in episode 1 after she gave a terrible interview to Justice Gang.
After making his first appearance in Superman, Lordtech’s owner was once again part of the DC Universe in Peacemaker Season 2. In the first episode, Maxwell Lord sponsored the Justice Gang and conducted recruitment interviews with Green Lantern and Hawkgirl.
A Lex Luthor reference was also made when Sasha Bordeaux mentioned that ARGUS is on high alert due to inter-dimensional anomalies, and this was since the ‘The Luthor Incident’.

Peacemaker Season 2 Episode 1 Hints At DCU Expansion
Additionally, the expansion of the DC Universe is also hinted at when the Sphere news mentioned the numerous metahuman breakouts from Belle Reeve and Arkham. This link hints at the broader universe of DC and its future expansions in the upcoming films.
Also, when the Peacemaker visits the alternative dimensions, he sees that his brother and father are alive. In the original time, he killed his brother & father to keep the peace. These Easter eggs show that the alternative universe is perfect and that there are no evils in that universe.
