Heroes 1: We Could Be Heroes  

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the show and ancillary materials such as web comics! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. Chuffa, Chuffa!

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

It's simply additional information. As others have said, you don't need to read them to appreciate the show, but they're not spoilery either.

And of course, the main problem is that "Heroes" is intended to be consumed in two media at once ... which is a little different than what happens with online materials for most TV shows. You don't lose much if you don't read the comic, but it's not the complete picture of the story, either.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Want an original \"Isaaz Mendes\"? The Heroes artwork is up for sale: [link]

Hmmm... not exactly originals:

Each auction will feature two full-size autographed limited editions prints and drawings of artwork used in the show, which includes \"Exploding Man,\" \"Eclipse,\" \"Claire on the Stairs\" and \"Hiro and T-Rex.\"

Also:

The first auction will start at 6 p.m. PAC on March 26 and close at 12 a.m. PAC on March 28. The second will be held at the same times but from April 2 to April 4.

I assume PAC is Pacific time? How annoying to end an auction at 3am on the East Coast!

I couldn't really spend too much time on that page, since the first user comment called Greg Grunberg a hypocrite for supporting a charity dedicated to epilepsy.

Yeah, that was stupid on so many levels.

Apparently you should only raise money for causes that you know nothing about and don't affect anyone you know.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I was sitting here thinking, Greg Grunberg is secretly in favor of epilepsy! He really really thinks everyone should have the tonic-clonic experience!!

...I think somebody needs to be beaten with a dictionary, to say nothing to the basic nastiness of it.

Yes. Otherwise, it's selfish.
