Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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!

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

le nubian, it's a neat suggestion, but Au Co is very, very dead. So unless there's a Hero who could have brought her back to life, I don't see how she could appear in the show.

Heh, victor. If we're considering what we've seen in the comic vs. what we've seen in the show, I think the show holds more weight. There's also the part where the writers can change their minds at will as long as they don't contradict what we've seen. It's hard to contradict what we haven't seen.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

oh, of course I forgot about the dead part! Au Co could have siblings running around though...

What is even happening?

Is all the white font just the comics?

Yes, Cindy. It's really nothing mindblowing or earthshattering, but the discussion stems from what we've seen in the comics.

The main point, in a nutshell, is that it doesn't appear from the comic that Papa Petrelli had powers. He and Linderman served in the military together, and when Linderman displayed his healing power, Petrelli was surprised. Years later, after Papa Petrelli had married Angela and had Nathan, Linderman came to him and asked him to help start the Company. Again, Petrelli makes no mention of his having powers at that point either.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

LeNubian -- Do you know about the spoiler font quickedit? Just start a new line with a single lower-case s. It'll save you a lot of time.

And, P-C, the other problem with your flist buddy's suggestion is that Au Co was Vietnamese, not Japanese.

Yeah, that's a problem indeed.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Jon, I am not very good at remembering quickedit suggestions, but thank you for the tip.

As far as your other problem: I have a number of friends who have one parent who is, say, Japanese, and another parent who might be from Singapore or Laos, etc. So I figured a relationship of that sort perhaps could work!

le nubian, right about the posting box, there's a link for quick edit formatting that opens up a cheat sheet on a pop up window. Not that you have to use quick-edit, but if you want to use is, it's there.

Thanks for the comic recap, P-C. I'd thought we were going to stop white fonting them, because discussion of them was part of the proposal and is in the slug and threader, but maybe I forgot, or lost track of the conversation and just made assumptions.

I have a question about this week's episode. After everybody was hurt/dying/whatever in Mohinder's apartment, a table (or something) came flying across the room and struck Sylar. This was after Peter was on the floor and I think "dead". Who did it? Did an unconscious Peter do it, or does Mohinder have powers he/we don't know about?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I thought Mohinder summoned up some strength to move it manually. I can't remember exactly what his situation was, so I'm not sure if that really makes sense or not.

Mohinder came flying (running really fast, not Petrelli flying) at Sylar with his map and SLAMMED it into him, knocking him over.
