The penultimate episode of Peacemaker season two sees Christopher Smith returning to his Earth with the Quantum Unfolding Chamber, an alien technology now in the hands of the U.S. government. The preview for the finale suggests this device, capable of opening doors to various dimensions, will be utilized. While some speculate this could lead to the DCU's own Multiverse Saga, similar to Marvel's, the article suggests James Gunn might have a darker plan[1].

Instead of introducing variants of known heroes, it's theorized that one of these dimensional doors could lead to Apokolips, the world ruled by Darkseid, a major DC villain who will also appear in the upcoming Mister Miracle animated series[1]. The "loud booming sound" of the portals from the Quantum Unfolding Chamber may hint at Boom Tube technology, used by Jack Kirby's Fourth World characters, including Darkseid, to traverse space and time[1]. The article posits that Apokolips and New Genesis could be dimensional variations of Earth in Gunn's interpretation, with the Quantum Unfolding Chamber potentially being the gateway for Earth to access this dark dimension[1].
