More like a Magneto/Grey King leader. He seems a bit too amoral/evil to be another Xavier. But I'm thinking you're right.

I like the idea about the cop, but I'm not so sure. After all, they had an encounter with Syler recently. I think the cop will come back into play as they get closer to saving the cheerleader.

I was not expecting the double-cross with Eden McCain, but should have expected there would be another connection back to Claire's dad.

I saw that one coming from a long ways back. She was far too chipper and understanding of the situation to have been an innocent passerby in the hallway.

I pray to the gods that Heroes will never have tights or names for the gang. One of the few things that the "Mutant X" TV series got right was that none of the characters had superhero names or costumes. They all dressed extremely well, but no tights or capes.

That's one of the things that wound me up about the X-Men films, actually - that everyone seemed to have a cool name. For example, Kurt whatsisface, he introduced himself and then added his super-name, Nightcrawler. Now, within the film's reality at least he's been a near-recluse, hiding away from the world, so how come he decided to have a cool name, even if it was just something that other, normal, people called him?

Xavier: "Welcome to the Institute, young Billy. Here you will find a tolerant and welcoming environment among people similar to you. By the way, you have to have a super-name, what would you like to be called?"
Billy: "Uh, gee, how about Ultra-Megatron-Sex-God?"
Xavier: ". . . No."

I am sorry, there was a mistake in my post before. In addition to Alec Baldwin, Ron Silver and Petrelli, the audiobook will also be spoken by Adam West, most notably in the chapter "Supercillious Civil Servants Suffer Sadly".
Have you had enough yet?

(Aban/Shik, since you don't catch my drift of high-treble, close-mic, wet-lips speaking voices, you obviously haven't watched Salad Fingers)

I can't believe no one has mentioned the fact that "Heroes" is essentially any scrawny kid's childhood fantasy come true, about losers that suddenly are called upon to save the world and wear swords, fly faster than sound, have superstrength and are unbreakable.
The whole premise is one big crowd-pleaser, which is what makes it work.

I doubt we'll ever see spandex or capes. The one glimpse we saw of future-Hiro in full-on hero role, he seemed to be wearing fairly normal clothes. More Matrix-style than comic-book style.

Oh... and in addition to my general liking of Alec Baldwin, I also liked The Shadow. It's not Lord of the Rings good or anything... but I've seen it several times and still like it well enough.

I'm still a little honked-off at The Shadow. Most of the time I was watching it, I was saying to myself "This should have been Batman..."

As for the code-name thing. I only had a problem with some of them in the X-Men movie. Magneto's Brotherhood had rejected human society and abandoned their original given names, too. Made sense to me. I can see it as something of a game amongst the Institute kids. Some of them are even punning references to their given names and powers, like Shadowcat and Jubilee. Iceman and Pyro are appropriate. I can see them calling Scott "Cyclops" and it sticking. Notice Jean didn't have a code-name. Kurt was harking back to the only time in his life when he was happy -- when he was a star in the Munich Circus. And Wolverine has had that code-name for decades, a holdover from his Black Ops days.

About the only ones that bugged me were Rogue and Storm. Marie should have stuck with that until someone at the Institute suggested "Rogue". And Ororo would have, I think, refused all attempts to give her a code-name. But that's the least of my problems with that character as captured by the movie.

As far as Heroes, I can see Dork-Hiro suggesting it, and the rest looking at him strangely. And Claire saying "If you call me 'Cheerleader' to my face, Ill kick your ass." Hiro's the only one I can see agonsing over it, and even then, I expect he'll grow out of it by the time he becomes Future-Hiro.

The fucked-up-ness has ratcheted up a couple more notches.I am staunchly opposed to cute girls getting killed, so I hope Hiro succeeds. Everything else is still spinning. Cop-Dude deserves a break -- and not with his wife, Ted the Nuclear Man needs Prozac, Mohander needs to get the hell over himself and eliminate the angst in that direction, and what the hell's happening with Peter and Nikki and all the folks we DIDN'T see this week? *grumble*

Hiro went back just a bit too far, methinks. And what the hell is up with this football-kid? He never talks... what would his power be classified as? Also, it looks like Eden has the power of suggestion, as she whispered something in Issac's ear and he took the heroin again.

Isaac gave Mr Bennett at the door a weird, stern look as he was strapping up. It may have been Eden, in Isaac's body, taking the drugs herself and chastising Bennett with the look.

Well if it's the same crew who's drauring Isaac's paintings, I'd like to have a looksie.

Edit: They're very nice, all the same I'm confounded by Claire's bit; she did try to kill her rapist in that carcrash, but they retcon it here greedo-style so that she actually wanted him to live (but with life-threatening injuries).
Also, she ended up in the hospital, but in the comic she's fine right after the crash.

And in officer Matt's chapter, he takes a patrol car shift hours after punching out his sleezy colleague. Kind of hard to do if you're suspended.

Yeah I was glad to see Eccleston. At first, I said to myself, "Hey that guy looks familiar." That I realized who it was and I said, "Hey its the Doctor!" which in retrospect is kinda funny since he left the show in order to avoid being remembered only for that role.

I LOVED it when the Invisible Eccles Man punched Peter, and when he said he wanted to punch Nathan everytime he sees his face. I can't stand either of those characters.

I noticed Takei's number plate and put my hands over my face. I can't believe they did something so corny!

The revelation about Claire's dad was the only thing I didn't like in this week's ep. I was hoping it'd be someone new, although seeing her mum who has yet another cool power was very good.
 

---

Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
 
I knew it was going to be Nathan. Partly from the shirt sleeve in the previews and partly because they need to start tying the characters together. Officer Matt, Claire and Jessikki still have little connection to the other charcters.

I'm beginning to develop a theory regarding Linderman. He seems to be slowly establishing control over all the main characters. He owns Jessikki's husband, he's blackmailing Patrelli, he has Hiro's sword, he's buying all of Isaac's paintings, and he's blackmailed Jessikki in the past and has now arranged to have her set loose again. I'm thinking Linderman is going to turn out to be the big baddie of the story.
 

---

Posted by Mars Needs Women (Member # 1505) on :
 
Don't forget, Sylar's on the loose.
 

---

Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
 
Oh, Sylar's a bad guy for sure. But he's basically just a guy with powers that went nuts. I'm thinking that Linderman is going to turn out to have alot more information on what's going on with the main characters than Sylar does.

I'm also thinking that with Peter on the way to figuring out how to control his powers, he's going to be the one who ends up taking down Sylar. He'll be able to do all the things Sylar can do, but with the addition of Claire's invulnerability.

Last week's episode also means that Claire and Peter are related. She's his niece. No hook up for them I guess.
 

---

Posted by Mark Nguyen (Member # 469) on :
 
Or they DO hook up, and subsequently find out. Hilarity ensues!

But most importantly, we discover that Peter's power absorbtion is not temporary, and he doesn't have to scoop out anyone's brains to do it. This makes him the equivalent or better to Sylar; he may even be able to absorb the latter's kaleidoscope of powers.

Mark
 

---

Posted by Mars Needs Women (Member # 1505) on :
 
Yeah about the brain scooping, does Sylar eat the brain or something?
 

---

Posted by Johnny (Member # 878) on :
 
I think we're all hoping he doesn't. He has that ability to see how complex mechanisms work, so hopefully he somehow studies the brains and then figures out how to recreate their power in his own brain.

Posted by Mars Needs Women (Member # 1505) on :
 
That ain't chicken in his soup!
 

---

Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
 
That's kind of what I was thinking. Sylar just studies them and sort of figures them out. I'm also thinking that Peter will eventually defeat him by absorbing Sylar's original power, figuring out how Sylar works, then "turning him off".

Of course, Officer Matt could turn him off by mooning him or something, I guess.

Does anyone else find it odd that Matt hasn't interacted at all with any of the main characters yet, other than Claire's Dad? Or did I miss something?
 

---

Posted by Mark Nguyen (Member # 469) on :
 
You're not missing anything, though he has met the Haitian. More importantly though, it seems that he's meeting the one person whom he might most be able to help... Assuming he'll be able to hear the thoughts of both Nikki and Jessica. Maybe that's why he gets tossed out the window.

Mark
 

---

Posted by Johnny (Member # 878) on :
 
He also had a run in with Sylar(well, we don't know it was definitely him since he seemed to be flying) and obviously Radioactive Man as well.

I reckon Peter will defeat Sylar too, since he can use his existing powers as well as absorbing Sylar's. It's funny really, they're like good/evil twins. Both have the ability to become incredibly powerful, but while one uses it for good, the other uses it for evil(well, he kills people to get more powers - gotta catch 'em all!).
 

---

Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
 
Yah, I saw in the previews for next week that Nikki and Matt finally meet.

Jessikki's powers are kind of odd. I guess I would call it super strength. Right now I'm thinking that Jessica has those abilities too, but only her alternate personality knows how to access them. eventually, I think Jessica will figure it out too.
 

---

Posted by Mark Nguyen (Member # 469) on :
 
At the present time, only Nikki can use their super strength... Which appears to manifest ONLY is rather gory ways so far. This doesn't seem to bode well for their encounter with Matt.

Back to Sylar and Nathan... Until this past week, most of us were under the impression that each person could only have one super power: telekenisis, phasing, super strength, etc. Only Sylar was able to somehow take the powers of other people permanently with his scoopages. We'd previously thought that Nathan could only use the powers of others he has met while he's near to or in contact with them. Now, we essentially have two people with the same powers, which are manifested in supposedly different ways.

The other revelation is an apparent genetic link between those with powers, with the discovery that Clarebear's biological parents are both supers too (plus Nathan and Peter, of course). But if there's some sort of family link, how come we haven't seen the Petrelli den mother show hers off? Is her super power the ability to be overbearing and obnoxious?

Mark
 

---

Posted by TSN (Member # 31) on :
 
You're confusing Nathan and Peter with each other.

I suspect the genetics of superpowers probably work in much the same way as mutations in the Marvel Comics universe or magical ability in the Harry Potter universe. Someone with powers can be born to someone without powers. People with powers are likely to produce a child with powers (but not necessarily?).
 

---

Posted by Nim (Member # 205) on :
 
I like Nathan a lot, he's very funny when talking to Hiro or others in unusual situations. It's only his whispering that's irritating, like that of Claire's father and Ron Silver.

This makes him the equivalent or better to Sylar; he may even be able to absorb the latter's kaleidoscope of powers.

Peter absorbing Sylar's powers would probably lead to that massive overload they've been talking about. But obviously we're led to believe that bumpkin sitting in his cellar blowing up his hands is the guy Peter will risk emulating.
 

---

Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
 
I'm thinking that there will eventually be a Quantum Leap-style revelation that basically the Good Nature of the Universe (God, Time, Fate, etc) generates extraordinary people every so often to prevent a catastrophe. Hiro's sword-wielding storybook character was of a previous generation of these supers. The swoosh mark that seems to be supconsciously programmed into everyone and that appears on the sword hilt ties into this too.

I think Linderman will eventually be revealed to be the counterforce to this. The Evil Nature who is trying to gain control of all these people and and use their abilites for his own purposes.

OMG! I've finally watched up to episode 17. This show is just freakin' amazing!

Claude was hiding someone - that was the reason Bennet had to 'shoot' him the first time. I'm guessing it also is connected to the comment he made to Peter Patrelli about having taught others like him before... maybe Nathan Patrelli? He seems quite adept at flying already.

Posted by AndrewR (Member # 44) on :
 
OK What does HRG stand for? Mr Bennet?

Is the chick - Hana? From last week - who can think through the internet etc. - was she the one back at the paper factory with the clipboard?

We've seen Claire's fake parents - well one of them - the Doctor who was presiding over Sylar. Where is the mother.
 

---

Posted by Johnny (Member # 878) on :
 
HRG stands for Horn Rim Glasses, he's Mr.Bennet, although some people call anyone in his company "a HRG".

I thought the woman at the back was WifiWoman at first(maybe infiltrating), but apparently she's a seperate character. There's speculation that she might be able to project visions into people heads or something, which could explain how she'll clean up the Bennet situation.

Hana Gittelman is Wireless, the woman that can intercept electronic signals. She was introduced in the companion (canon) graphic novels. On screen she is played by Stana Katic. The chick with the clipboard is Candice, described as "a female temptress" played by Missy Peregrym.

Sylar's last line was awesome. "I'd like to see how that works."

Whoever called Hana "Wireless" on the last page gave me a thought: is anyone coming up with superhero style names for any of the heroes? I'm sure there are lists out there. A couple of thoughts I've had are:

Eden = Persuasion
Candice = Lookalike
Parkman = Reader
Jessikki = Schitzo
The Nuclear Guy = Fireball
 

---

Posted by AndrewR (Member # 44) on :
 
Claire?? The Cheerleader?
Isaac - Painter?

Can anyone list the powers Sylar should have now?

Demoleculariser
Telekinesis (possibly accoundts for him 'zooming' away from FBI chick and Matt Parkman out of the sewer.
Super-hearing
Super-memory (from the waitress Charlie)

He killed that little girl's parents - the one Parkman heard... wasn't one of them frozen or something - so maybe one of them had power over ice or what have you.

Can he take from 'non'-power people - maybe he became a real bitch after opening up Jackie's head!?! - The wrong cheerleader.

Anyone else?

Does this then mean Peter Patrelli can supposedly absorb all these powers too?
 

---

Posted by Nim (Member # 205) on :
 
Probably only with powers excercised in his vicinity. How he did his precog-dreaming escapes me, though. It hasn't been much delved in.
 

---

Posted by Peregrinus (Member # 504) on :
 
I think he absorbs the powers of woever he is in proximity with, whether they're exercised or not. His first manifestation was of his brother's flight power, but he never saw Nathan fly until he rescued him in the first ep. But on the flip side, he can't exercize a power if he doesn't know it's there.

And Hana is called Wireless because that was the title of the arc about her in the online graphic novels. Sylar took his name from a brand of clock. I don't think any of the rest need nicknames. Although I admit "Ted the Nuclear Guy" sounds cool. *heh*

He also never flew until his flying brother caught him. He has never used a power that had not already been used on, or near, him. Even the invisibility thing was an ongoing experience.

Since Sylar has so many powers now, I could see why absorbing all the crap he has acquired since their run-in at the stadium would make Peter go nuclear. But neither he nor Sylar has met nuclear-guy, so he doesn't have the means yet.
 

---

Posted by Aban Rune (Member # 226) on :
 
I think Peter will be able to absorb all the powers Sylar has absorbed including Sylar's original power to see how things work.

Sylar's killed others, too, since the FBI was already on his trail when we first met Parkman. So presumably, he has more than we've seen.
 

---

Posted by Johnny (Member # 878) on :
 
That's a good point, Nim. Peter hasn't met Ted, so why did he seem to be starting to go nuclear before Claude punched him a few episodes ago?

I think everyone has a showdown between Peter and Sylar in mind(where they end up using an ingenious combination of powers to beat each other, with Peter winning), so I hope Sylar isn't killed off in the next episode. Peter's bound to overpower him and Mohinder wants Sylar dead, so I wonder how he'll escape death. I suppose Peter's conscience could kick in.
 

---

Posted by AndrewR (Member # 44) on :
 
I thought the reason Peter was going 'nuclear' wasn't so much Ted but that he was being overwhelmed with powers all at once!?! Although the similarities between the powers are quite a lot.

Hmmm the connection between Ted and Peter is Matt Parkman... wasn't he in Peter's mind at one stage?

Also interesting in that Peter was going to go to the Nevada desert and around that time Ted Sprague was there playing with his powers.

Were Peter's dreams precognition - why were all those people in a deserted New York?

Jess/ikki, Micha, D.L., Matt (in uniform), Hiro, Ando, Claire, Nathan, SIMONE... I think it might have just been a dream. BUT he hasn't MET all those people yet. only 4 of them.

Does anyone think that Claire might have another ability to heal OTHERS? I was thinking she might have discovered that after her mother took ill.

DOES Mohindar have a power? Remember what Mr. Bennett said when Mohindar said he had a list??

If Peter can heal himself... why can't he heal his scar that he PRESUMABLY gets from Sylar (unless it's a decoy and it's a different scar).

"Regarding final run, they have been cleared for a second season."

True, but I understand it's supposed to be a whole new storyline with different characters and everything. So, this is the final run for this story.

"When does Dr. Who come back?"

End of this month.

"...is anyone coming up with superhero style names for any of the heroes?"

Claire -> "Wolverine"
D.L. -> "Shadowcat"
Peter -> "Mimic"
Candice -> "Mastermind"

Okay, so maybe the superhero genre lends itself easily to repetition. I'm just saying.
