in gang's bay shipwreck is definitely more of the like. punching bag comic relief of the cast. he's very endearingly stupid. he's kinda pathetic and wimpy despite his large build. he's always struggling or being made fun of. things are always happening to him and half the time it's his fault.
almost as an extension of this im tempted to make it so that in canon he had like a very comically bad upbringing, which would be kinda funny juxtaposed with the other characters having varyingly seriously rough childhoods/relationships with their parents that they're still negatively affected by. i dunno

The summary of my Peacemaker and Comedian thoughts are I believe paul kupperberg when he said the comedian had no influence on his reboot of Peacemaker because turning charlton Peacemaker into a piece of shit who committed war crimes in Veitnam is a very obvious route that makes sense.
Also you can tell Kupperberg was a liberal and Moore was a anarchist because Peacemakers actions are explained like 50% by his personal trauma and mental state and THEN 50% by like Being A US Soldier while the Comedian does not have the "literally mentally ill" explanation and is like that almost entirely because he's a US soldier. Like Comedian is having a evil but "reasonable" (as in: acting like this for his own personal gain, not because he experiences delusions) reaction to his circumstances while Peacemaker is portrayed as like "he's a bad guy but alot of his actions are because he's 'insane'".
Like I know the intent is to make him more tragic but it is that very liberal like "well its not the systems fault ENTIRELY its also because of Peacemakers intrisnically broken brain !!!" and I think that difference between them is really interesting honestly
