Man they're really going to have to work to make me be okay with Debbie forgiving Nolan later. She's just got so much more characterization in the show and it's going to be such a harder pill to swallow this time around.

Honestly I hope she doesn’t forgive Nolan. The show is the perfect place to improve on things from the comics or change things that didn’t work

Same with Mark?

I’m more comfortable with Mark forgiving him (mainly cause they’d have to change so much of the plot if he doesn’t).

But when he does forgive Nolan I’d like it to be a long and slow process. In the comics Mark forgives him almost instantly and it felt rushed. I hope their reconciliation takes at least a few episodes if not a whole season.

Not really, the first time they re-encounter he constantly disrespects him, points out his hypocrisy and straight up rejects whatever excuse Nolan had, it wasn't until the Viltrumite War where they actually make peace

Maybe I’m misremembering the comics but I thought Mark kinda forgave Nolan after seeing how much he cared for his half brother?

Like I remember Mark being really angry that Nolan was apparently a perfect father now but then mellowing out after having one on one time with Nolan’s new wife?

Not at all, as I said, they only truly make peace after Viltrumite War. Of course he's not gonna be angry at them specifically , it's not like it's their fault + viltrumites are invading, he won't antagonize his only hope of saving that planet
