The violent DC anti-hero Peacemaker – specifcally the John Cena Peacemaker – will be taking several upcoming comic book covers by storm in the month of January in 2022.
As a tie-in to the upcoming HBO Max Peacemaker
If you recall, Peacemaker is a maligned, gun-toting patriotic hero whom mainstream audiences became acquainted with in the recent The Suicide Squad movie. Originally created in the ’60s, for a time Peacemaker was best known as the inspiration for Watchmen’s Comedian but has had a renewed interest with his appearance in The Multiversity: Pax Americana and the aforementioned The Suicide Squad film.
