Peacemaker: Disturbing the Peace 1 wastes no time in getting to the violence that created Christopher Smith, detailing an increasingly bizarre string of tragedies that befell the vigilante at a young age.
Warning! The preview pages for Peacemaker: Disturbing the Peace #1 contain graphic imagery and visuals of suicide.
While fans of the Peacemaker television series are reeling from discovering the character's tragic origins, a new comic is revealing even more outlandish and violent beginnings for Christopher Smith in DC Comics. Sworn to protect peace at any cost, the ultraviolent superhero has recently found himself in the spotlight after starring in James Gunn's The Suicide Squad as well as receiving his own spin-off show.
Created by Joe Gill and Pat Boyette, Peacemaker was first introduced in Charlton Comics' Fightin' 5 #40. After being bought out by DC, the character was introduced to a larger superhero world in his own self-titled miniseries by Paul Kupperberg, Tod Smith, and Pablo Marcos. Peacemaker remained a relatively obscure character until he was added to the cast of The Suicide Squad, where he was portrayed by John Cena.
This disturbing beginning is a far cry from the recent developments made in HBOMax's Peacemaker program, where Smith was revealed to have been trained to kill from childhood by his father, the white supremacist supervillain known as White Dragon. While nonetheless unsettling, this new origin seems to be aiming for the same result, asking the reader what would cause someone to develop the ideology of wanting to protect peace.
