Which is also why Conquest said "Why are you getting angry? You won't get stronger" and then Mark did indeed get stronger.

Mark just went berserk tho, totally lost his survival skills and went for the kill, thats %100 adrenaline + fight or flight response kicking in the fullest.

Yeah and that did literally no damage.

Eve going God Mode was what did 95% of the damage during that fight.

Burning off the skin isnt the same as crushing someone's skull. Eve helped a ton, saved marks ass but mark did the demolishing the cranium part.

Yeah right because Mark who was no diffed for 99% of the fight suddenly oneshotted Conquest with a couple of headbuts. You gonna tell me that the 10 consecutive punches Conquest (that barrage of punches didn't even made him bleed!) were weaker than 5 or 6 headbutts...

It's obvious that the damage Eve did wasn't merely peeling off his skin.

Thats exactly what happened because his skull was in no danger beforehand. That was all mark. That would have killed him no matter what happened to his skin.

u/Heysteeevo Mar 14 '25

Why tho? Doesn’t make sense that Mark would be more powerful than conquest.

u/SoCool- Amber Bennett Mar 14 '25

He isnt. Mark hit the only part of his skull that has no bone with the thickest part of his skull. His hits were landing before and they were better after but that doesn’t imply mark is any stronger than him. The name of his theme is “second strongest viltrumite” and mark isnt number one

While I do agree with this physically, I also don't think Conquest allows this to happen if he hadn't been barbecued by Eve

Bit more than 5-6, I counted 19

Lets not get ahead of ourselves. Even if he got hit with just that beam, everyone on earth would have died easily. His skull being crushed is easily more than half of what happened

u/SirPoblington Mar 14 '25

I don't think he allows his skull to get crushed if he hadn't been toasted

u/CordobezEverdeen Mar 13 '25

Nah. That Iron Man dude or the Wolf dude would have easily packed him up. If a half dead Mark with a single functioning limb can finish him off there's no way at least 10 other heroes can't do the same.

u/SoCool- Amber Bennett Mar 13 '25

The only thing we know about the show versions of wolf man is that he fought with a weaker mark for like a few seconds and tech jacket can beat one. Beating a weaker mark is a reaniman level feat but conquest would wipe out all of them easily and instantly. Eve is stronger then them both easily and was crushed and impaled.

u/SoCool- Amber Bennett Mar 13 '25

The fact he had the part of his skull struck with no bone to defend it by the thickest part of marks skull is why his head was able to be burst open so easily, he was just in a really bad spot
