James Gunn reveals we’ll meet some [SPOILERS] In tomorrow’s season 2 finale

The season 2 finale of Peacemaker premieres on HBO Max tomorrow night, and James Gunn has now taken to social media to drop an intriguing hint about one of the surprises the episode has in store for fans.

Possible spoilers follow.

Gunn shared a behind-the-scenes photo of some of the alien “vermin” we’ve seen this mysterious Xenomorph-inspired kyphotic creature burn repeatedly in previous episodes, while revealing that the finale will also feature other “little friends.”

While there’s a chance Gunn is referring to something (or someone) else, we’re pretty sure he just confirmed that we’re going to see interdimensional imps in the episode titled “Full Nelson.”

"I would love to be able to find a way to make Bat-Mite, or at least Peace-Mite, because I’m sure there’s an imp somewhere in the Ninth Dimension that worships Peacemaker," Gunn said. Geek den in July.

You may remember that the alternate universe version of Auggie Smith mentioned his encounter with imps in the premiere.

We’d say an appearance by Bat-Mite himself is probably unlikely, but Peace-Mite is possible, and Mister Mxyzptlk’s debut could lay the groundwork for The man of tomorrow (not that we expected the little trickster to play a major role in the Superman follow up).

Peacemaker season 2 has already featured a major Superman cameo in Nicholas Hoult’s Lex Luthor, and the DC Studios co-CEO has downplayed the possibility of any other big character appearances in the finale. He did, however, confirm that the events of the episode would be directly linked to Man of Tomorrow.
