You know, for a ruthless organization of torturers and murderers, The Company sure goes out of its way not kill extremely dangerous enemies once they capture them.

I'd be surprised if Matt's dad is trapped to stay.

Oh me too. All those years watching Batman taught me that much.

Can they kill Adam?

Besides, they've read the evil overlord list of rules. They know the deal.

Not just Adam. Sylar. Matt's Dad.

And Claire could not come back from the dead until the coroner pulled the stick from her brain. So maybe people with regeneration can be killed permanently if it is done throughly enough. (Though it seems like explosions don't count as throughly enough, so maybe not.) Even if Adam could not be killed permanently - stick a dagger through his brain, seal him up in a sphere of reinforced concrete and metal; sink the sphere to the bottom of the ocean, or bury it under 50 feet of dirt; presto. Adam is a problem for future generations - the very distant future.

I could have sworn Bob said something about keeping Maury under heavy sedation. Of course, that didn't necessarily help with Sylar.

(Though it seems like explosions don't count as throughly enough, so maybe not.)

The rule seems to be that as long as you have a working brain, you can regenerate. I could easily see the explosion leaving Adam badly burned/bruised but otherwise mostly intact.

He or Claire could presumably be killed the same way you'd kill a zombie - by destroying the brain.

He or Claire could presumably be killed the same way you'd kill a zombie - by destroying the brain.

Which makes sense since she didn't wake up during her autopsy until they pulled the branch out of her head.

He or Claire could presumably be killed the same way you'd kill a zombie - by destroying the brain.

Which is how Sylar gained Claire's powers in one of the alternate timelines.

Also, Mohinder really is the dumbest man on the planet.

Y'know, I really want Mohinder to be right and everybody else wrong on this one. Because that would be funny.

On a related note, the Heroes comic anthology came out today. A bit pricey - I probably should have waited for the paperback, but wth.

The recent TV Guide Q&A (mild spoilers) confirms that Jack Coleman is awesome:

It's kind of weird that two single straight guys, Mohinder and Matt, are in charge of little Molly. Is this arrangement legal?
"In reality, no one has talked about adoption or legal custody," admits Loeb. "The opportunity to do our version of My Two Dads was too delightful to deal with details." Actor Jack Coleman (HRG) also weighed in here, noting that this isn't the first no-hassle kiddie custody on Heroes. "There's nothing official about HRG's adoption of Claire," he says. "Kaito [George Takei] simply handed her to me on a roof. We're not really concerned much with legalities on Heroes, you know. We take liberties with reality. Here's another spoiler: People can't fly."
