Throughout the course of Peacemaker's first season, Christopher Smith has made a series of wild accusations about the DC Extended Universe's greatest heroes. Most of them come from what he's seen online, which is a way for writer and director James Gunn to poke fun at how misinformation and fake news is so easily spread across social media sites like Facebook and Twitter.
In today's finale, Peacemaker suggests rappelling across to the barn the Butterflies are using as a base, leading to Vigilante pointing out that it sounds like something Green Arrow would do.
"That dude goes to Brony conventions dressed as the back half of Twilight Sparkle with a four inches wide butthole drilled in the costume," a disgusted Peacemaker responds. While the rest of the team immediately start doubting his wild accusations, John Economos pipes up to say that, even though everything else he's come out with about the world's superheroes is nonsense, "I actually heard that's true about Green Arrow."
Man, what did poor Oliver Queen ever do to Gunn, eh?
We'd hazard a guess that the Star City vigilante probably isn't a Brony, but Enonomos does work for A.R.G.U.S., so he knows his stuff! This isn't the only Easter Egg in today's Peacemaker finale, of course, and you can check out those massive cameos by clicking here. Needless to say, we're hoping the recently announced season two will see Smith cross paths with even more heroes.
All episodes of Peacemaker are now streaming on HBO Max.
