'Peacemaker' Season 2 Ending Explained: Did The Finale Just Set Up 'Checkmate'?
"After the other 11th Street Kids convince Chris (John Cena) to come back and work with them again, it's revealed that all the characters who are not aligned with Rick Flag Sr. (Frank Grillo) have created a new independent agency called Checkmate. Notably, this includes all the characters in this season who didn't meet some horrible fate, which, oddly enough, includes all the main characters. So, as of the ending of Peacemaker Season 2, the newly formed independent agency Checkmate includes:"
"The Peacemaker Season 2 finale seemingly ended without a true resolution. Clearly, fans of the newly expanding DCU will be expecting more from these characters, but will the future of Chris Smith and the 11th Street Kids be told in hypothetical Season 3? Probably not. And that's because one DC Comics Easter egg in the finale seems to suggest that another DC title could pick up the story where Peacemaker left off."
Peacemaker Season 2 concludes with the surviving 11th Street Kids forming an independent agency called Checkmate. The new team includes Judo Master, Langston Fleury, Vigilante, Leota Adebayo, Emilia Harcourt, John Economos, Sasha Bordeaux, and others, and counts Peacemaker as a member despite his kidnapping by ARGUS and transport to an alternate dimension called Salvation. Sasha Bordeaux's presence, with cybernetic enhancements, aligns with her comic-book history as a Checkmate operative and legitimizes the agency as a new version of the DC team. The finale's Checkmate reveal suggests the story could continue in another DC title rather than a direct Season 3.
