After a three-year hiatus, Peacemaker Season 2 finally premiered on HBO Max this week to widespread acclaim. The streaming series is now set in the rebooted DC Universe, which means James Gunn has the entirety of the canon to work with. New characters now form part of Peacemaker’s world, including a rather niche villain from the source material that further hints at Batman’s existence in the DCU.
The Peacemaker Season 2 premiere introduced an obscure Batman villain called White Rabbit. Portrayed by Brey Noelle, White Rabbit’s real name is Jaina Hudson, a Gotham City socialite and a criminal who sometimes serves as a love interest for the Caped Crusader. She runs out of the same audition Peacemaker is about to head into, crying after the Justice Gang unknowingly made fun of her with a hot mic. You can check out her cameo in the images below.
White Rabbit was first introduced in 2011’s Batman: The Dark Knight #1 by David Finch and Paul Jenkins. She is a metahuman who has the ability to clone herself, allowing her to be in two places at once (usually to commit crimes). Her introduction in Peacemaker as a wannabe hero may indicate she could return as a villain at some point. Perhaps getting so hatefully rejected by the Justice Gang will fuel her revenge and influence others who auditioned to do the same. Until then, it seems White Rabbit was just a niche nod to the Batman comics.
