Peacemaker: James Gunn shares the final execution and reveals the truth about Auggie Smith of Earth-X

Fans frequently complain about short runtings for comic book television shows. Peacemaker Season 2 was everywhere in this regard, although the seventh chapter of last night – “like a Keith in the night” – was ranked just over 30 minutes, leaving a short time to explore Earth -X.
The final next Thursday has a lot to approach, and we now have good news from the CO-PDG of DC Studios James Gunn. Responding to fans on the sons, revealed the filmmaker, “You will be happy to know that the episode of next week lasts more than 57 minutes.”
This makes it the longest episode since the second, “a man is as good as his bird”, which lasted 48 minutes.
Gunn also took the time to address the torsion that Auggie Smith of Earth-X was a good man, not a Nazi. “Auggie is generally a good human being who opposes what the Nazis do”, “ he revealed. “But Keith (and Chris 2), well … I don’t know. Sometimes the apples fall very far from the tree – on both lands.”
“Auggie on Earth X has a compassion in a way that our auggie has never done”, “ Gunn added, later reiterating that Auggie was anti-Nazi. Unfortunately, he was killed by the vigilante, leaving Keith living to take revenge on the Pacific of the DCU for having killed his father and his brother.
While Peacemaker could have plunged more deep into the ground floor and even trampling the children of the 11th street against the Nazi leaders of this world, Gunn used the parallel reality to explore the psyche of Chris Smith more.
When we leave him in this episode, he is a broken man, convinced that he is the cause of everyone around him dying. It remains to be seen if the anti-hero can make things turn, of course, but if Keith comes in search of Chris to Belle Reve, it may be when we will see Gi robot unleashed?

In our examination of Peacemaker The first five episodes of season 2, we wrote, “Peacemaker Season 2 looks like an entirely superfluous addition to the new DCU, and does not have the issues and emotion that made season 1 so special. Fortunately, it is supported by funny surprises for fans and another exceptional tour of John Cena.”
