Last week's PDF is here: [link]
This week's is not up yet. Since the comics tend to be a preview of the next week's episode, I'm not sure there will be a new comic this week.
Strong like an Amazon.

Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What would Dwight's power be? Aside from 'annoying'?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Dwight would immediately assume that they'd want to recruit him for the team.
That seemed a possibility, although Claire'sDadOfMystery! also seemed interesting in cutting him open and doing the sort of research they don't get to do with the ones they evidently tag and release (Matt, Ted, ikiN.) Which tells me that there's some ethical line in there, no matter how nebulous. On the whole, they don't seem to be murderers. (Although I can see where they'd make an exception in Sylar's case.)
On the other hand, I find myself wondering about Peter's vision. Did it come on its own accord? He's shown signs of a psychic link with Nathan before, but no one else, besides mimicing their powers. So was there someone around whose powers he was picking up on? Someone we couldn't see?
I presume we're meant to believe he's mimicing Radioactive!Ted's abilities there, and not being able to control them. Still, Claire's present, so one wonders how the "Save the Cheerleader, Save the World" prophecy will play out.
Also, Peter's now seen the faces of everyone who's supposed to be there, many of whom by now he'll recognize (Claire, Ando, Issac, Mohander, Matt, Nathan and Simone, plus being able to infer who Hiro is.) We're still left with the question of how to connect the rest of them back to DL, Micah and ikiN. I imagine something will happen now that she's turned herself in to hook her up with Matt and Not!Marcy or Claire'sDadOfMystery!
And of course, HIRO'S GOING TO FIGHT A DINOSAUR!!! WITH THE SWORD!!!!

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Of course! And if anyone in the company is going to get a superpower, I think it should be Dwight. He could have... I don't know. An X-Ray vision? Or maybe at times of stress, his hair turns into feathers and he squawks like a chicken.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Dwight should have a super-powered voice. I picture him saying "FACT", and a shockwave spreading all around him.

Heh.
Heroes renders itself nicely to crossover, doesn't it? I haven't read much fic (other than a couple of short, badly written Claire/Peter and a rather good Peter/George Clooney (!)). Hopefully this will change during the hiatus.
I also remember Yahtzee saying that the Heroes should recruit Victor Garber to the cast, and he can play a character who glowers at people, and they burst into flames.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

OMGYES.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I got the impression that the explosion with Peter had something to do with being around too many heroes at once. That there were too many powers to feed off of. Is that the impression other people got?

I'm wondering, if the first "super" Peter's actually touched other than his brother is going to affect him more than normal....
