Powers: She cooks a good dinner and has the ability to make Mark wash dishes.

She is a content stay at home mom who yells at her husband and son for flying in the house and thinks nothing of her husband fighting 60 story tall dragons. Debbie is a strong character who is content with her life.

Spoiler: Once Nolan reveals he is really on earth to take over the planet and that he supposedly doesn't love his wife, Debbie became deeply depressed and began constantly drinking. In an attempt to regain some control she decided to try selling real estate. Even this didn't completely take up her time but with the addition of Oliver it seems Debbie feels she has purpose again.

Teams: None, but worked closely with the old Guardians of the Globe

Powers: Super Speed, Super Strength, Pretty much invincible, and Flight. All more advanced then Marks

Intro: Nolan comes from Viltrum. Nolan described Viltrum as a utopia. They had created a commit who's purpose was to find planets to improve. In his travels with this commit, Nolan found earth and decided to be it's sole defender. He is considered by many to be the greatest hero in the world. Nolan made a living as an author. He started by writing science fiction which never sold well and moved on to travel books. Mark has a lot to live up too. Spoiler: Nolan lied about Viltrum to everyone. They are militaristic and bent on universal domination. Nolan was positioned on earth to prep it for a take over. Upon finding this out Mark and Nolan fought. Nolan left Mark nearly dead and flew off the planet being unable to kill Mark. Nolan found another planet and peacefully took it over in hopes of gaining favor with his Viltrumite leaders. Nolan knew they would find him and be angry with him for abandoning his post. Nolan had the aliens of his new home contact Mark and ask him for help. Mark agreed and upon arriving was reunited with his father. Three viltrumites came to this new world where Nolan and Mark fought them. They both survived but Nolan's back was broken in the process. He was taken away for judgement but a viltrumite clean up crew and Mark was charged with prepping Earth for take over by 100 years from then. Mark has no intention of helping. Nolan before being taken away told Mark to read his books. Mark seems to feel that his father put in them how to defeat the Viltrumite empire. Nolan hasn't been seen since.
