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
I agree with you, thula is one of the strongest viltrumites in comics, mark shouldnt be able to even see her coming
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 and skillful as Nolan. That’s actually why I thought they rejuvenated that random viltrumite, so it’s more believable he doesn’t get pummeled by him, but now it’s worse lmao
infact, he didn’t. He just bruised her. Noland kicked her shit
power scaling is bullshit, lmao. Just because your stronger than me physically doesn’t mean I can’t give you some nasty fucking injuries
He wasn’t fighting her by himself Nolan came in and got a few licks in for him and it didn’t look like she was next to death
He definitely was fighting her by himself and he would’ve either finished her off or come close if it weren’t for his hesitation.
It takes more than one viltrumite to execute one full abled viltrumite I don’t think she was close to death
Thula was dazed and waiting for him to resume his attacks. It wouldn’t have been long, IMO.
I believe it was implied (or maybe straight-up shown) that Thula needed several other Viltrumites to help her, and without them, her life would’ve been at Battle Beast’s command.
I mean she looked scuffed up and bruised but considering we know what Viltrimites can take my bet is that moment it looked like Mark was going to kill her she was just playing possum to either get the opportunity to stab Mark and/or gauge Mark’s ruthlessness to see if he’d be a worth addition to the Empire. Especially because they need Mark since Nolan has to be executed for being a traitor.
Comic spoilers, they have an OP bloodline.
Doesn’t mark have adrenaline or something from humans that viltramites lack? That’s why he released when he saw more and more bodies.
I actually think the opposite. Mark didnt beat the shit out of them, if Nolan wasnt OP, they both would die.
And the reason why Mark was able to keep up with the fight later was simple, Nolan says it outloud. Mark isnt a viltrumite, he doesnt fight to kill. He fights expecting the other side give up. So when Nolan gave him some Goku speech, he just fought for his life instead of trying to protect his enemies too.
And also there is one other reason too but that would be a spoiler.
Everyone has a plan until you get punched in the face.
