"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

They call it "a gruesome interpretation of Isaac's painting of Nathan in office."

but why would Sylar repaint something that Isaac's already done?

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

but why would Sylar repaint something that Isaac's already done?

Maybe to show that he is changing the future?

right, but if the future is the same, why repaint it? That's why I think that he's painting himself in the White House, because he's changing the future.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

but why would Sylar repaint something that Isaac's already done?

Because now he's seeing 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

Yeah, Isaac didn't strike me as being in all that much control of what he painted, particularly when his power first manifested.

I thought Sylar's painting was far too well-crafted (if in a creepy style) for someone who's never painted a large canvas in oils before. Unless he also absorbed Isaac's technical painting skills along with his power...

All is well that ends in pizza.

I thought he painted Frankenstein's monster as president.

I thought that he painted himself.

Six of one....

Peter did. He was drawing stick figures in the hospital, but he painted exactly like Isaac did. Which is interesting. Perhaps because Peter was copying Isaac's power, whereas Syler was interpreting it.

And a watchmaker may be trained in the fine arts to a certain extent, as some fine engraving they may be called on to do could certainly be seen as artistic skill- I would buy that Sylar is using that older artistic talant rather than copying Isaac.

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

Awesome interview with Bryan Fuller.

Highlights include script gang-banging as per Wonderfalls, the fact that the Mama Petrelli reveal wasn't planned, the scoop on Zach (who is totally gay), and next week's episode, which is his favorite of the season.
