I have not read the comics, so I would understand if this is answered later.
Why won’t Viltrum send one or two soldiers to Earth to subjugate it after finding out about Omni Man’s desertion? Why are they even bothering with getting Mark to do it when they have so many seasoned and ruthless soldiers who are more than capable of finishing the job?
I get that they can’t be everywhere at once, but can they really not send one or two over?
Ok so basically viltrumites actually need earth for
Bro just read the fucking comic lol
The correct answer.
They all over the universe and there isnt time and its 100 of them left because of virus
You’ve probably been spoiled in the comments already but that’s gonna be answered later
Very risky question to ask lol I hope nobody has spoiled it for you. Just trust that it’ll all make sense eventually
Nolan literally explains it in the show, their numbers are stretched too thin. That ship was home base, the president isn’t going to send his security detail to fight a war. That is enough of an explanation until it reveals more.
Cuz earthussy hit different 🐱
Do you want this to be spoiled for you or are you content with just knowing it will be explained later?
Because the Viltrum empire is vast with many planets. Ruling over such a vast territory with a tiny population is naturally going to be difficult. Some of those planets are likely pretty unhappy about being conquered and certain elements would rebel if the viltrumites guarding them left their post to go after Earth.
Taking soldiers away from their posts means fewer guards for important trade routes/less people to maintain control over planets/less people to fight important wars. And every viltrumite is needed because of how low their population is.
Additionally, it’s not like every viltrumite is capable of solo conquering a planet. That duty is explicitly given to the very best viltrumite soldiers. The average viltrumite soldier might simply be too weak to overpower a world like earth. Even Omniman nearly died against the Guardians. A typical viltrumite soldier would probably have died.
As for why Mark was given the responsibility, probably just to fuck with him. Making him fix his father’s “mistake” knowing it would be hard for him. And to prove himself worthy of living. So it was basically just a way of punishing Mark and breaking him in to the viltrumite way of life.
Bro don’t ask questions you don’t want the answer to. Actually you should just leave this sub right now.
My guess is their numbers are stretched too thin since they’re literally conquering every damn planet in existence one by one (or trying to conquer every planet).
If you keep watching, information will be revealed.
It gets answered later
That’s literally what they are doing by telling Mark we are going to check in and if you fail we will do it
Spoilers ahead!
Because they don’t want to spare the man power right now.
The viltramites are almost unstoppable but there are things that can hurt and kill them, more things than they’d want to admit.
Sending soldiers to earth (which isn’t an active threat to them) means they’d be more vulnerable elsewhere and that’s a huge risk considering they do not have the numbers the universe thinks they do. Every viltramite lost is a huge loss, almost unrecoverably so during the earlier events of the series.
