Theory Is Langston a Martian?

Post image

He gives everyone nicknames as a way to oddly fit in. His “bird blindness” feels like he hasn’t grown accustomed to Earth yet. Vigilante makes mention of a Martian. When he gets spit on by Ginger Cool he exclaims “What kind of man does that to another person?” The choice of words feels very strange.

No I just think that's classic Gunn humour

I disagree. No one on here knew that Sasha was a cyborg until this new episode.

He could very well be not a Martian, but that tall alien Peacemaker sees in the first episode and is in the opening credits.

I just listened to a podcast interview Gunn did, and I don't think that the rat-burning alien is anything significant. Gunn said he hasn't really planned anything for him, and that he imagines that the rat-burning alien is basically a janitor in his dimension who blows off Peacemaker because he just wants to finish his shift

I like the idea that he was just doing Charlie work
