mark was getting clobbered by fucking maulers 3 episodes ago now he’s able to beat a full grown soldier viltrumite that’s been conquering worlds for millennia just because he “stopped holding back”. Even Nolan who got hospitalized by the guardians while soloing them, only suffered a cut on his head fighting THREE viltrumites!!! Just makes them look weak in comparison. I feel like they shouldn’t even have any chance winning that battle at all, not alone surviving in better condition than against way weaker foes
I mean we’ve seen what mark can do when he gets serious. He annihilated the mercenaries hired by machine head once he got angry(until battle beast clobbered him) and he beat up the flaxans once he got pissed.
Idk how you’re using “beating up mercenaries” as a reason for “beating up viltrumites” the show spends all its time establishing them way above the league of any other superpowered beings, even Allen
I’m using it as an example of the difference in power between a mark that’s holding back and a one that’s not. He got his ass handed to him then he demolished them once he got serious
So when he’s holding back his body is significantly less durable that maulers can disfigure him and leave him in a pool of blood, but when he’s not his body is in way better shape than a fight with the maulers. AGAINST A VILTRUMITE? Ok got it
