Peacemaker Presents: The Vigilante/Eagly Double Feature #1
Story: James Gunn
Writer: Tim Seeley
Artist: Mitch Gerads
Release Date: March 26, 2025
Today DC revealed artwork and covers for Peacemaker Presents: The Vigilante/Eagly Double Feature! This five-issue DC Black Label limited series is inspired by DC Studios’ James Gunn’s visionary Peacemaker series on Max and features two original stories: one spotlighting Peacemaker and his avian sidekick Eagly, and one his crime-fighting friend Adrian Chase, a.k.a. Vigilante.
Gunn also serves as story consultant for the series, which debuts at participating comic book shops and digital retailers March 26.
In “Peaceful Vacation,” writer Rex Ogle and artists Matteo Lolli and John Kalisz take Eagly and Chris Smith (a.k.a. Peacemaker) to the great outdoors of Alaska for some well-deserved rest and relaxation from doling out peace in their own over-the-top style. But when their trip is interrupted by a group of masked hijackers (and an annoying flight attendant), it’s up to a certain eagle and his pet human to save the day.
Unfortunately, Peacemaker forgets to tell his pal Vigilante about his vacation plans, and now Vigilante thinks Peacemaker and Eagly have been kidnapped by the Controller, which means big trouble for the criminals of Evergreen, with knives, axes, and gore galore! “A Time for Fables” is written by Tim Seeley and features art by Mitch Gerads. Each issue of the series will include diary entries from Vigilante on “How to Be A Super-Hero,” written by Freddie Stroma, who portrays the character in the Max series.
Gerads also provides the main cover for the debut issue, with variant covers by some of the top artists in comics: Darick Robertson, Matteo Lolli, and Dan Panosian. Gerads’s main cover is also available as a foil variant.
