I absolutely loved this character in the comics and was particularly looking forward to this episode. I'm glad it was this good, and served as an excellent finale.

I can't say I much agree with the criticism I'm hearing. Isn't as good a finale as Season 1's? No, but it's pretty close for me. It was every bit as disturbing, hard to watch, unflinching, brutal and still pretty emotionally devastating too. There's certainly so set-up here for what's to come, but it still felt very conclusive. People need to lighten up.

I love what the writers did with Mark this season. Things are really about to change for him going forward. THIS episode really feels like the turning point for his character as well as the safety of his loved ones.

Also adored Debbie this season. Again, feels like things are coming sort of full circle for her. She's even better here than she was in the comics.

Levy's short time was excellent and I LOVED Sterling K. Brown's performance. Literally perfect casting, and if you're a fan or the comics, your probably super anxious about what's coming...

The multiverse stuff was scary but also pretty freakin' entertaining. I personally loved the Spider-Man cameo and am glad that was expanded upon from the comics. Seeing all of the different Marks was truly horrifying.

Not Mark smacking Angstrom Levy with a Fortnite gun😂

I'm very content with this finale. It did justice to the comics but I'd even argue that it did it even better. This whole season did a lot of things better than the comics. At this rate, I could see them easily doing this through at least season 5, maybe season 6.

I hope we don't get any more mid-season breaks though. It's so unnecessary.
