If some of these are answered later don’t spoiler as I haven’t read the comics

Why did they want to conquer Earth but not the Thraxans? Omniman says they’re gonna kill everyone on the planet

So Mark has been getting destroyed because he’s holding back and the moment he stops he’s able to take out that female Viltrumite. But when he was greeting wrecked by Omniman or Battle Beast he was still holding back? All it took was for mark to try to kill that lady and she got destroyed, instantly.

    He was holding backa against omniman, being all emotionalyl confused and stuff.

    Battle beast on the other hand is an exceptionally powerful being that even nolan would be weary to fight, infamously strong. way to think of it is that he’s as physically tough and strong as a powerful viltrumite, but doesn’t have flight powers.

      This is a really big problem know as viltrumites aren’t as scary anymore.if mark was holding back during the omniman fight that means from what we saw this episode mark would’ve been close to beating him with only a years worth of training.A viltrumite whose had his powers for a year and not proper combat training vs a thousand year old veteran shouldn’t be as close as it was because with that logic mark will very quickly be able to beat a lot of viltrumites

        think part of it is that mark has faced far more legit trepedation and experience than the older viltrumites.there is sitll plenty on earth that can give mark trouble. these peeps have never faced anything that can harm them besides each other.

          You see I agree these older viltrumites haven’t had a proper challenge other then themselves this is why I believe that Thula wasn’t expecting mark to be so strong.If she knew the threat that mark posed she would have dealt with him very quickly.Mark went from fighting bad to really good, thula wasn’t expecting a sudden change therefore lost the fight. I believe if they both fought at full power from the beginning the fight would’ve been way closer than it, mark might’ve still one but not as easily as he did.We also don’t know how strong thula is, for all we know she was the weakest of all three viltrumites.

          A lot of stuff can still hurt mark on earth but should it?Once mark trains for a bitand control his strength, barely anything on earth should challenge him and he would be able to beat most viltrumites with ease.I just feel like from a story perspective it makes things to easy and makes viltrumites way less scary

    This is why “they’re as strong as they need to be for the plot” just doesn’t work, because it creates big inconsistencies as these. Mark should’ve not been able to borderline beat Thula, someone as old an skillful as Nolan. That’s actually why I thought they rejuvinated that random viltrumite, so it’s more believable he doesn’t get pummeled by him, but now it’s worse lmao

        The blonde guy with glasses looks like a younger version of the old one Mark fights in the comic
