This article contains Peacemaker spoilers.
The Peacemaker finale had at least two more scenes that we’ve added to the long list of “I can’t believe they filmed that” shots this show pulled off. It also made a huge change in the status quo for the Dceu’s clandestine services.
After Peacemaker, Vigilante, and the gang successfully blew up the cow Without resorting to using the Scabies Helmet, Adebayo held a press conference to set the record straight. She counteracted the butterflies’ accusations against Peacemaker, and in the process exposed her mother, Amanda Waller, and the entire Task Force X operation to the entire world.
If you’re thinking “that probably won’t end well for the team,” you’re right! There’s some comics history to the Suicide Squad being outed, and none of it’s good.

Auggie Smith’s menacing racism somehow gets taken to the next level pays off in Peacemaker episode 7, as Chris’s terrible dad re-dons his White Dragon costume and gets to work. But…the White Dragon of Peacemaker is fairly different from the White Dragon in the comics. And for that matter, so is Peacemaker’s father. What are we talking about? Let’s break it down.
Nazis. I Hate These Guys.
In the comics, Christopher Smith was born in Austria to an American mother, Elizabeth Lewis, and a respectable German expat businessman father, Wolfgang Schmidt. Except he wasn’t respectable at all. He was Nazi garbage, the former head of a Polish concentration camp who fled when Germany’s loss became clear. And when that information was about to become public, Schmidt took his own life rather than face punishment for his crimes. Of course,...

Young Justice season 3 is dark, political, and most importantly...back! Here's our review of the first episode of Young Justice: Outsiders.
This Young Justice review contains spoilers.
Young Justice Season 3 Episode 1
Young Justice is a fascinating show.
In preparation for the return of this critically acclaimed show with a very vocal fanbase, I went back and rewatched the old seasons of Young Justice on the app. I...can't really believe it ever got made.
Not because it's not good, mind you. This show is everything people talk about when they go on about "truly all-ages cartoons." It has been since episode one, and while it's grown with its audience, even through this first batch of Young Justice: Outsiders episodes, it's still targeting a pretty broad age range. But the impressive thing about it, and something I didn't even really realize until just now, is that its storytelling...

On May 23, DC will release the sixth volume in their Tpb reprint series of my Suicide Squad work. It’s sub-titled “The Phoenix Gambit” and, as is my wont, I’m going to share some thoughts about the stories therein. This might actually take a few weeks.
The volume covers issues 41 through 49 and, with one exception, was co-written with my late wife, Kim Yale. It was at this point that we shook up the Squad (and the book) to a large degree. When we last left the Squad in issue 40 (and the end of the previous Tpb), the Squad had disbanded or dispersed. Amanda Waller was in jail as a result of her hand in executing the criminal gang calling itself the Loa; she just surrendered and, at the time, many people both within the book and without wondered why. Why didn’t she fight it? Why didn’t she...
