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

    Nobody, including Mark, know how strong he is at this point. He knows that being a Viltrumite means that he can likely kill anything or anyone he hits if he isn’t actively holding back. The only 2 times he fights someone stronger is BattleBeast, who completely catches Mark off guard. And then his Father, who no matter what is going on, Mark isn’t going to try to kill him.

    So he starts off the fight still holding back. Until Nolan tells him that if he doesn’t stop holding back, and try to kill her. She will kill both of them, Oliver, and every single Thraxens on the planet. So Mark is finally pushing himself for the first time in his entire life. And Thula thinks that Mark is weak. Why else would he side with Earth, and now Thraxa, over his own Viltrumite people, unless he wasn’t weak.
