Peacemaker Season 2’s finale is a treasure trove for DC fans, packed with hidden Easter eggs, comic book callbacks, and even more surprising cameos from Superman. Beyond the epic action and chaotic humor, the episode strengthens ties to the broader DC Universe and honors decades of comic book lore.

After the 11th St. Kids return from the Nazi-controlled Earth-X in Episode 7, Rick Flag Sr. sets his sights on using Chris Smith’s Quantum Unfolding Chamber (QUC) for the government’s secret agendas. Meanwhile, Peacemaker and his team break away from ARGUS, determined to build a better future on their own terms.

From nods to classic DC Comics to subtle references that longtime fans will adore, the finale is brimming with details that reward careful viewers. Here’s a breakdown of all the coolest Easter eggs, Superman appearances, and DCU connections you might have missed in Peacemaker Season 2’s explosive final episode.

 

Imps!

Their mischievous chaos adds both humor and danger, making them one of the most memorable recurring elements of the series.

In the Peacemaker Season 2 finale, ARGUS and LuthorCorp discover a seemingly peaceful, uninhabited world they dub Salvation, intending to transform it into an inescapable prison for metahumans. This is a direct nod to the 2007 Salvation Run storyline, where Rick Flag and Amanda Waller used a similar plan to exile several supervillains in the original DC Comics. The Easter egg highlights the show’s deep ties to comic history while hinting at the high-stakes adventures to come in the DCU.

One door in the Quantum Unfolding Chamber (QUC) reveals giant, screaming skulls perched atop spider bodies, creating one of the most visually shocking moments of the finale.

Ultra Bunny

As Emilia Harcourt sets up the team’s new offices in the finale, fans can spot a model of Ultra Bunny emblazoned with the motivational phrase: “Obstacles are opportunities.”

Ultra Bunny is an original creation by James Gunn, first appearing on Rick Flag Jr.’s shirt in The Suicide Squad as a playful replacement for Looney Tunes’ Wile E. Coyote holding a “Help!” sign. The figure also made a cameo in Peacemaker Season 1, Episode 4, making it a fun recurring Easter egg for eagle-eyed fans and a nod to Gunn’s love for quirky DCU details.

Slo-Mo Finale Walk
