Markus of Viltrum is a ferocious servant of his empire. He stands as the most loyal and effective servant of the great general, Nolan of Viltrum, and the two of them control Earth under an iron rule. A small resistance exists (they've smashed Robot into pieces a dozen times, and he keeps rebuilding himself; it's irritating), but it's only a matter of time before they're crushed into nonexistence. Once the people of Earth calm down and accept their status as a vassal state of the Viltrumite Empire, they'll find that their situation will improve a great deal. There's sure to be some deaths - there always are - but you can't make an omelette without breaking some eggs.

Mind you, it will be a few centuries before the Empire sends a larger occupational force, but two Viltrumites is enough to rule any planet. And Mark is happy to wait. After all, he is his father's son....
