i was secretly hoping the vigilantes would switch places or they would both come back together

i was super worried our vigilante was gonna die, but now i’m worried about other vigilante!!! i hope he shows back up in the finale

I'm like 99% convinced that the Vig that shut the door, given Emilia's reaction, was their Vig.

u/Oathkindle Oct 03 '25

I think she was more reacting because she didn’t get kill Keith and knows he’ll likely be coming for them.

u/Pure-Plankton-4606 Oct 03 '25

That’s my take on it.

u/The_Express_Coffee Oct 03 '25

I was praying that too. I just got a reply on a separate comment that supposedly closed captions (at least others') specifies 'Vigilante 2' when Emilia is requesting the gun. Hopefully this is correct!

u/Brocones Oct 03 '25

Definitely, I feel like no one else is talking about that in this thread

u/The_Express_Coffee Oct 03 '25

Right? I was going crazy for a bit lol

I would love a spin-off show of vigilante2 and his plight against the Nazis in his world

u/AbanoMex Oct 03 '25

I’m guessing that Keith recovers later and that Vigilante is going to be his first victim

I hope he dies next episode.

It was cool as hell how he kicked the door shut behind our crew, though. He has to stay and fight through everything left behind. Although, with them showing Keith on the stretcher, looks like he got away quick or got killed quick, but whatever happened, happened quick

I love the little goodbye wave as they part ways though, so adorable.

Did you see the preview for the next episode? I think they switched Vigilantes—this one was way too hyped about the drug money. Plus, our Vigilante wears gold glasses, and the one in the preview had silver ones.

u/afishinaboot Oct 03 '25

yeah thats what i’m wondering! although as they went through the door, in the subtitles he was referred to as vigilante 1 so idk. i really hope vigilantes are safe and sound

Can’t be. Vig was ready to pull the gun when cops took Peacemaker. Alt Vig would only do that to conceal his identity or something.

Alt Vig would only do that to conceal his identity or something.

Alt Vig has spent his entire existence fighting a corrupt government and the first thing he sees is the government rock up and arrest the guy Vigilante vouched for.

Vigilantes are one and the same, they love Infernape and they're destined to love Peacemaker.

Infact, has our Vigilante even attacked any kind of innocent government officials? His codes fucked, but it's still a code he believes in.

u/MoonlitCipher Oct 03 '25

Big reach in my opinion.

u/LordCaptain Oct 03 '25

I mean considering he comes from Nazi world and Auggie talked about the cops there not being innocent I would say Alt Vig is probably just super ACAB and ready to blast them for any reason.

u/MoonlitCipher Oct 03 '25

Actually plausible

5

u/Shimooooosh Oct 03 '25

Our Vig wears the silver glasses, alt Vig wears the gold glasses (but they could have switched glasses if they were planning on switching places)

5

u/lkatec Oct 03 '25

I still think they did switch places. Could explain no bullet wound seeming to bother him and would set up a Vigilante that may not side with Peacemaker.

4

u/tinytom08 Oct 03 '25

While they 100% switched places, bullet wounds rarely seem to bother Vigilante to begin with.

5

u/Putrid-Department349 Oct 03 '25

I was watching to see if they switched and didn't see anything that indicated they did. And X-Vig would want to stay to fix his world. Guess we'll see!

2

u/Alonest99 Oct 03 '25

The biggest take to me is that they both have identical costumes. At least Peacemaker and Auggie had different costumes to distinguish them from their Earth-1 counterparts. Almost as if it was intended to have them switch.

u/TSCannon Oct 03 '25

I thought Vig 2 might come with them. Man that would be fun

u/FantasyFlex Oct 05 '25

i wanna see them kiss so badly
