The direction and editing in the dream scenes was excellent, but I didn't make much of the Big storyline with Hiro.
At first I wasn't sure why Arthur had removed so much of Hiro's memory when the last few monthsworth should have sufficed, but if Arthur's aware that Claire's the catalyst then it could make sense somehow. Hiro was there when Kaito gave Claire/the Catalyst to Noah for safe keeping, so presumably he's one of only a limited number who know that that happened, with Linderman and Bob dead, Angela in a coma and most of the others who might've known having been killed by Adam last season.

Heheheh - I was wondering that. Was it conclusively shown that "Mr. Isaac" was the 'author' of 9th Wonders? Maybe he just had a SHIT load of pictures drawn/painted. Maybe they are all in some sort of Matrix?

Well that's the thing. Isaac drew the supposed last issue of 9th Wonders all the way back in season 1. Yet since they've shown new issues. So I guess some other comic book drawer who can see the future has taken up the mantle?

Well "African Mr. Isaac" painted in a similar style (obviously same artist used by the production people) but maybe the power is to paint in a similar fashion!?!
Arthur Patrelli's painting looked to be a similar style.
Now who did he get that power off - The african guy or Peter, who got it from Isaac.
I thought African Mr. Isaac got his ability from that paste.

I like some of the ideas they have, I just wish there was more attention to detail. The episode where Hiro saw how past events all knitted together was a really interesting episode, but it was spoilt by poor continuity. I know that sounds like typical scifi nerd complaints, but there were quite big issues that either point to the writers not paying attention, or hoping that the audience haven't been.
For instance, when we were first introduced to Elle in season 2 we were lead to believe that she'd spent her entire life in the Company's facility and as a result had become a sociopath who tortured Peter for fun, as well as frying the Irish guy to a crisp.
Then in this recent episode we're meant to believe she actually had left the facility to go on a mission and had built up a pretty normal relationship with Sylar. Not only that, but rather than being a sadistic nutcase, she was actually the only person who thought giving Sylar a victim to kill was immoral.
There are ways to ractionalise it, but really it comes down to the writers treating us like idiots.

I also am liking season 3. I also agree that some things haven't been consistent.
Having said that, Survivor Gabon has been so awesome the last 4 weeks that I'm getting more excited waiting for each new Survivor than I have been over Heroes.
