Mark didn't stop the asteroid until much later on in the comics. The show is shuffling things around so his power level is fluctuating, too. It is weird how strong the reanimen are, though, especially considering they could easily fight off most top-tier characters pretty easily. Even in the comic, they stay relevant until late into the series.

I don't remember it ever being explained in the comics how just borging can make them so tough?

I don't think it's really ever explained. Sinclair is just really good at what he does, apparently. At least later on it makes sense when he uses the alternate reality versions of Mark as his spare parts.

I think that it is partly to play into the reveal that Cecil is utilizing them. It makes more sense for Cecil to use Sinclair if he sees how hard homebrewed reanimen are slapping a Viltrumite around.
