He’s what? 18? Basically nothing in viltrumite timeframe.

Literally gets dominated by Lucan using one finger.

Then he gets his ass beat by Thula, who has hundreds of years of experience minimum, mind you viltrumites get stronger with age, aaand somehow a pep talk allows him to almost kill her? What? Mind you, in the comics this Thula threw down with Battle Beast and walked away alive

      Yeah Thula is not as skilled as Nolan. Nolan couldn’t take on all 3 at once so Mark was asked to help. 2 of them? I have a feeling Nolan might win that. 1 on 1 he for sure cleans house.

        Mark for SURE was just meant to be a distraction so Nolan could clean up the first guy and then wrap around to deal with Thula. And it worked, too, it’ just crazy Lucan is the monster he is.

          Oh 100%. Lucan lost, but having your guts spilled doesn’t stop him apparently. I’m rather okay with them giving Mark some power here and able to at least go toe to toe with Thula for a bit. She wasn’t be killed by him, but she wasn’t gonna kill him either.

          I get if power scaling gets out of hand and is crazy wild or whatever, but sometimes…sometimes I just want a cool fight where the MC has some power. This worked for me. Mark is still out of his league, but we can see that he can definitely be a powerhouse. Thula definitely wasn’t being crazy serious, Nolan definitely knocked some wind out of her, and she got caught off guard by Mark’s sudden demeanor change. I’m telling people take your power BS and stuff it. It was a cool as hell to see Mark throw some hands and not be a ragdoll for once in the show! We have 1000 more chances to see Mark get split open. Let him win one, give some false hope to animated fans!
