Why didn’t he try to indoctrinate him before he got his powers? Yeah, he wasn’t sure if he was going to get them or not. But if he didn’t, what’s 17 more years?

    IIRC, if Mark did develop his powers (and side with Viltrum), Nolan thought that Mark being raised as a human would provide unique insight into how to best conquer Earth (or to at least weaken it for an invasion)

    The simple answer is, Nolan got comfortable. He liked being a superhero and a father. It allowed him to explore parts of himself that had been repressed by Viltrumite society.

    We already saw in the Atom Eve episode that Nolan was considering doing something drastic to his family, but the moment he considered it, he immediately felt ashamed.
