Debet...
at least half of your white font is completely resolved in the comics. At least that is my understanding.
Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Le n, I know. I read the comic (that's why I wfed). He met Linderman, who did have powers, but that doesn't absolutely prove that Petrelli didn't, too. Unless I'm mis-remembering.

Okay, you raise a good point. I just drew a firm line that Papa Petrelli didn't have powers given how he reacted during the war and that he didn't mention special powers when Linderman showed up years later.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
DE, I thought it was canonical that Nathan had served in the military. It was in his campaign ad or something.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
I think it's fairly clear that Papa Petrelli doesn'thave powers, and that they were inherited from Mom, who Petrelli and Linderman probably met during the course of their work.

Victor, I would go one further, on the second to last page of the comic we see Petrelli's wife and a baby. So I wonder if his wife was hiding her powers all this time...

You know, you're right. I wonder if that detail was a mistake (there's been a couple inconsistencies, although I'm hard-pressed to recall hem) or if Mama Petrelli did indeed have powers and hid them all that time. Maybe SHE'S the REAL reason Linderman got back in touch with Papa. You can kinda see Linderman discovering who Papa married and thinking, "Boy! This is gonna be FUNNY!"

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Hee, victor. Like, "Here's your first assignment! Track down this chick named, hey, Angela Petrelli. She related to you?"

(chortle)
I know where you both are going with this though...I wonder if Angela called Linderman herself and brought him to the Petrellis' doorstep.

Ooh, le nubian.
See, I'm still assuming Papa Petrelli had powers. Both Claire's parents have powers, both Micah's parents have powers, and given that BOTH Nathan and Peter have powers, I would think that they got that gene from both parents. It's just more likely, given what we've seen on the show.
Someone on my flist suggested that Au Co was Hiro's mom.
