Adrian Chase aka Vigilante (Freddie Stroma) has been one of the fan-favorite characters of 'Peacemaker'. Annoying yet amazing in hand-to-hand combat, wise-cracking but not an absolute idiot, Vigilante is a Chris Smith/Peacemaker (John Cena) fanboy, but he has also proven himself as a solid ally. The character's willingness to sacrifice himself in Episode 7 shows that he cares for the greater good and that had fans heaping their praises on the character.

"Vigilante is just too damn cute for a psycho killer. #Peacemaker," one of the fans remarked after Episode 7 aired. The character development of Vigilante has been so epic that fans even wondered if Chase would get his own show. "@JamesGunn This will most likely get flooded. But with the introduction of Vigilante within Peacemaker, is there a chance of a Vigilante solo show?"

"Kinda wished they kept Vigilante’s identity unknown ngl Would have been funnier and cooler if we never knew who he was or what he looked like lmao #Peacemaker," one of the tweets read. "The scene where Peacemaker kills his father, John Cena performs his as* off. Just brillant ! but vigilante ruins the scene, it was correct character choice to interrupt him but it didn't work in the scene. There wasn't any breathing room given for a scene to play out."

"Aaaaaaaaa latest Peacemaker SO good. Man, John Cena is just so good. REALLY felt his grief this episode, still thinking about it. Vigilante still owns my heart though…" a fan commented. "@JamesGunn @JohnCena #Peacemaker I had an insight I thought was valuable. #Vigilante is #Peacemaker brother. Think it through…….In this essay I’m going to prove… @hbomax @jennlholland @freddiestroma," a fan theorized. "#Peacemaker Episode 7. One of the best episodes this season. John Cena born for that role. Emilia Harcourt is so badass. Vigilante is... such a prick sometimes, still love em. CANT WAIT for the Finale!" a fan remarked.
