Her power isn't shapeshifting, she's an illusionist.
Yes, but in practice, there wasn't much of a difference. With a few notable exceptions, her power was almost always used in the same way Sylar is using the shapeshifting now.
I'll be in my bunk.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am so with you, LeN. Now that Sylar can change the DNA of his clothing he's way too OTT for me.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
The clothing changing seems like the clothing going invisible on invisible people -- common enough handwavium that I can live with it.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I'll just pretend that Zachary QuintoSylar is actually naked and just altering his skin to look like the clothing of the person he's imitating.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If they hadn't made such noise about DNA changing, it might only be something I wondered about. It used to be subtle, but now it's insane, and it just helps me dislike the degree of power they've amped him up to. Removing the knife is just the last straw.
I want him dead or depowered.

Mind you, I'd not remembered that Ellen Greene played his Mom, so it was nice to see her get work. Now if they could have just worked her in singing....

Oh dog, now I'm picturing a musical Heroes episode. I'm not sure how I feel about that idea.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Good idea. I may drop out after the finale anyway.
