I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

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!

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

My faith in Tim Kring is restored, big-time. As long as the "newbies slated for not lasting past this volume" doesn't include KB.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I don't think so. She was one of the newbies he said they introduced properly!

That was my gut feeling too, but I've been known to be wrong. Not that I think I am here; everyone loves KB!

Trust my rage

we have a rehash of the same plotline from last year changing only nuclear explosion to superflu.

This is so true.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Yeah I'm little disppointed that it's "blah blah blah save the world" again but that's a pretty standard issue plot device for comic books. Every time the show does something I take issue with I end up realizing that it's something consistent with comic books and therefore acceptable within the comic book world Heroes inhabits.

I mean, what else can they do, really? Once you take the bar to "save the world," you can't really lower it.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I was more annoyed that they found out about having to save the world in New York again. That seemed more of a rehash to me. There are other major cities that they could have landed in.

Yeah, but other major cities wouldn't have Angela Petrelli.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I think the virus plotline has the potential to raise issues about the mutations/superpowers, whereas the big boom was a little more of a traditional "save the world!" thing. But they haven't really raised any of those issues yet.
