The new episode of the Speed Nguyen's Deep Dive Podcast provide an extensive overview of the Peacemaker television series, focusing heavily on recaps of Season 1 and reviews of the subsequent Season 2. The Season 1 summaries detail Peacemaker's recovery after The Suicide Squad, his mission to stop the alien Butterfly invasion (culminating in the destruction of the alien Cow), the death of his racist father Auggie Smith (the White Dragon), and the famous Justice League cameo that is subsequently retconned in Season 2. The Season 2 reviews and recaps emphasize the show's shift to the new DC Universe (DCU) continuity, the introduction of the Justice Gang (replacing the Justice League), and Peacemaker's emotional journey as he confronts his trauma through a multiversal portal that leads to an alternate reality, Earth-X, where his family is alive. Season 2 also features the revenge plot of Rick Flag Sr. and concludes with Peacemaker being exiled to the prison planet Salvation, setting up future DCU storylines potentially involving Darkseid and the New Gods.
