[@TheDrexxus]

I think the bug thing is weird too, but I think I understand why the author did it. They bugs are there specifically because they only live 1 year. It helps put Mark in a situation where he can empathize with his father. Omni-man's whole deal was that he and mark will live for thousands of years so none of those people on earth really mattered. Mark is still only like 18 so he has no concept of what that is like. But now he has met a species that only lives for ONE year, and he has lived nearly 20 times their lifespan already even though he isn't even old. Even you guys reacting to it were trivializing those bug people's lives because they're so short lived saying things like his new wife will only live one year so it doesn't even matter. I think that is the whole point of the bug people. To give the audience, as well as Mark, some perspective. Omni-Man felt about humans how yall feel about those bugs. Thats why killing them all didn't really matter much.

Viltrumite Steve Harvey really got his guts spilled out and came back to dropkick Nolan in the spine.

It definitely gets wilder.

He is a viltromite, this is all foreign to him which explains his outbursts. This is atleast how i saw it. Either way a great ending to the first half of s2

[@jelanibyrd5031]

Exactly. Nolan is undoing his thousands of years of programing and unshakable loyalty to the viltrum empire. I understand his actions 100%.

Viltrumites do not form attachments like humans. Nolan is realizing his feelings of attachment for his family for the first time in his life and is struggling with them. He believed he was starting a permanent new life with a new family and took steps to do as much. As for how Lucan (black Viltrumite) is still alive. Get used to that. Vilrumites and a few others are extremely durable and will not die from simply being impaled or torn apart.

[@randomslayer9018]

So essentially, your first or final attack need to instantly kill the viltrumite, or they'll heal sooner or later. You can rely on them bleeding out or dying due to some other complications. Only exceptions that I know of consist of mutilating the viltrumite beyond repair, or you severed their leg or arm or something, I'm sure they'd bleed out, since they can't heal a lost limb. Cutting of their oxygen via crushing their throat/lungs might work too,

[@NotYourMoses]

don't forget that Viltrumite genes are hella superior making Mark pretty much a full-blooded Viltrumite, this also explains why Nolan's new bug baby looks human but with purple skin, his Viltrumite blood is so potent that it altered his DNA and biology, so that baby will eventually be a full-blooded Viltrumite too and live for thousands of years.

That's right. Most people forget that.

[@prod3clips]

No he wont the reason viltumites are only allowed to mate with similar species is because the viltumite DNA mixes and works better with it so that they do get a full bloded one. But since his mom isnt a genetically similar species he will only be able to be half-viltumite. Thraxan DNA isnt as compatible as human DNA is, that's why he got the purple skin.

Then Mark replied "He'd have a life!". We as humans live so much longer than these bug people that it is comparable to how humans have only bug like lifespans compared to Vultrumites. When you say (as a human): "Why even bother saving these bug people since they would die next week anyway?" then it makes you understand how a Vultrumite feels towards humans. Like these bugs to us humans are just insects, as humans are just "insects" to a Vultrumite.

[@SnowyWolborg]

Exactly. It's a big universe, and the simple fact of the matter is, not everybody is built the same way. Nolan can try to explain it, but Mark won't understand it until he sees everybody that he knows dying of old age while he hasn't changed in the slightest.

Some interesting bit of trivia. In the comics Donald was already a cyborg/mostly robotic when he was first introduced. Him having “died” in the field was actually just a part of his off-screen backstory that he mentioned one time. So it’s interesting seeing it turned in an actual arc on the show. It’s one of the things that highlights how the original comic was much more irreverent in tone compared to the show, similar to how Mark’s reunion with his dad in the show is (understandably) far more hostile than it was in the comics (the greater sincerity of the show, is part of why I prefer its presentation of the story over the comics). If it wasn’t clear by Nolan surviving having his back broken, both Lucan (the Steve Harvey-looking Viltrumite) and Thula (the one with the dagger braid-hair) both survived their battle with Nolan as well (despite their grievous injuries). Viltrumites basically need to have their brain or heart be damaged beyond repair to 100% guarantee their death.

Yea I love the comics but I don’t mind the changes they’ve made, marks reaction here is waaay more realistic in the show.

I'd drop a spoiler tag just so no tv only viewers accidently have it spoiled.

I think one of the many spin off comics covered this about Donald. Same with Eve's origin. That wasn't in the original comic it was a spin off that did the origin. Its nice that they're putting on the extra detail for the show.

[@messytenzo6838]

idk i am just rereading it and im finding the show a bit annoying and the comic more enjoyable not a big fan of the changes.

[@MaximumPrime]

I like the parallels of Nolan and Debbie showing that both are depressed by everything that’s happened and what Nolan did and the realization that he lost the 2 most important people in his life because of his loyalty to the viltrum empire and how that also impacted Debbie.

I was waiting for this episode after I read the comics in season one. This is probably one of my favorite points in The comic.

Donald being a clone could have to do with how he was able to barrel roll away from Omniman initially before he got caught in the spinal-lock.

[@landendrake]

Omni-Man is a Viltrumite born and raised. Earth has changed his moral compass but it’s not like he isn’t still a Viltrumite. His normal is completely different.

[@Hinokami777]

Mauler brothers came full circle. In season 1 the same incident must’ve happened before where a clone knew he was the clone. Cause the mauler brothers were like “ it never works out when its that way” which implies one of the clones killed the original cause of a Simao or situation and then created another clone but set it to where the clone thought it was the original. It’s literally a never ending cycle.

[@DzinkyDzink]

But here the 'original" did not consider that. Could he be a Mauler from another dimension?

[@antonyouten5447]

Omi man is like the 3rd strongest of the whole species. Very few could take on 3 while babysitting and live

[@The_Nerd_Dancer]

Fun fact at 12:16 - the voice actor for Eve's father (Fred Tatasciore), is also the voice of Killcannon, so in a way Gillian Jacobs (Eve) and Fred are kinda always fighting.

[@logician32gaming31]

Nolan(Omni Man) was a science fiction writer on earth. His books was about all the battles he did. A lot to learn on how they operate.

[@DarkKuno76]

If you pay attention, you'll notice that the chick with the braid was one of the original Viltrumites you saw in the original flashback where Nolan explains what Viltrumites really are. Yes she IS a problem. As far as why the other Viltrumites were able to keep going. Viltrumites are literally built different. Unless you destroy their heart or brain, it's pretty much impossible to kill them. And unless you literally destroy a part of their body, it will heal (notice that Mark has teeth again despite being waaaaaaay too old to grow new ones like what would happen if a human adult got their teeth knocked out, etc).

[@hellshard]

To those wondering, of the five viltrumites that fought none died. They are the definition of build different, not only can they survive injuries of that level they will only need a short amount of time to heal. The three enemies and mark will only need weeks to heal while omni man will need a few months to heal his shattered spine.

[@jonreese7066]

When Nolan arrived on Earth he was a Viltrumite when he met Debie, Nolan the Viltrumite died and the only one that remained was Omniman and Nolan Grayson

[@maxl8623]

14:13 Omni-man's logic (or cope logic) with earthlings in the first season. Viltrumites live thousands of years or longer, so humans who only live ~100 years tops so it doesn't really matter if they die. Especially when you're taught from birth in a conquering empire that you're better than everyone else of course you're gonna look down on others and think their comparably brief lives being ended early doesn't matter. Of course I know that's not an argument you guys are making, but I think it's an interesting parallel that was likely intentionally done by the author.

[@eb3144]

That's literally the entire point of this episode

[@TheAdammantium]

To Shira's comment on the Thraxan's lives being not worth saving because its so short - this is in direct comparison to Omni-man's care for humans. Humans live way way shorter in comparison to Viltrumites, so he has little care for us. So now as Mark, if he doesn't care for these bugs because they live such short lives in comparison to him, he is as bad as his father.

[@SnowyWolborg]

Exactly. Nolan was not lying when he said that Debbie turned Earth from a job into a home. He did not intend to become comfortable, but he ended up liking being a superhero and a father. Mark only 18, and he just doesn't have the frame of reference to understand the passage of time. So if he cannot identify with the Thraxans, then he ultimately will feel the same way towards humans, whether he knows it or not.

[@stange8337]

14:15 "they was gonna die next weak anyway" is exacly what Nolan said while beatin Mark's ass, crazy how it flipped

[@Luciphell]

21:40 When they don't know who the original is, it pushes them to be better as a team as they try to outdo the other. Like he said, "Sloppy, subpar work" is what they start putting out when they know which is which.

[@Latentheatfussion]

I love the lore of superhuman biology in this show, some beings are tougher to break than others, immortal could be said to be a timber, strong and hard enough but would still break eventually under the pressure of metals like cast iron (big enough cast iron) that is the viltrumites Fights between superhumans in this show is likened to that of if a human fought a rhinoceros with bare hands, the human will do no damage and would view the rhino as indestructible but a rhino against another rhino would be completely different and both could kill each other easily than one would assume It shook me for a bit seeing the seemingly indestructible viltrumites tear each other apart pretty easily but then it made sense anyway because they're of the same caliber in strength and durability so tearing each other apart easily doesn't seem far fetched and it also makes sense why certain weapons like the pointy rock was able to pin lucan coz by analogy an axe can't fall a tree in a childs hand but with an adult it's a different case

[@Ghostface4k]

In the scene where Cecil vanished off of Debbie's couch, it wasn't a hologram. He was really there. Cecil has the technology to teleport himself... He used that in the first season when he faced Omni-Man. He was teleporting around to avoid getting caught if you recall. If it was just a hologram, he wouldn't have to worry about that.

If you go back to season 1 and these 4 episodes of season 2 you see glimpses of him almost unleashing his viltrumite side/rage and he either holds back or gets sneaked/knocked out ( examples being battle beast, vs new darkwing and karma police trauma montage).

[@hiibillymayshere4238]

​@@yorozuyanex5625 It's more like unleashing his Human Adrenaline. If you notice Viltrumites almost always fight in a calm and composed manner, with little uncontrollable rage/malice. At best they have a controlled rage going. In the comics, it's hinted that Marks ability to overcome so much is the Adrenaline he gets from his human side.
