I'm starting to think that just watching the show and not reading the comics, wiki and whatever might be a small handicap.
eta: Very strange. Only about half of my post showed up. I wonder whose strange talent could cause this.
Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

[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!

grrr, that is not cool.
Do the comics explain where Hana was in her plan to storm the Bennet's with Ted and Matt?

The show's pretty much designed to be followed simultaneously on multiple platforms. Really, it's becoming evident that you have to both watch the show and read the comic to have a full picture of what's going on. Although, for the most part, I don't think there've been too many moments on the show that are terribly confusing if you've not read the comic, except maybe Hana-related stuff.
I do hope they're going somewhere with Hana. They've built her up in the comic so much that her sleight presence on the show is kind of frustrating. Still, they do take their time fleshing out plotlines, don't they?

I've been wondering a lot about the "Godsend" symbol. It's obviously important, but if you knock away the times it was used mostly incidentally, it's had three major occurrences: On the Haitian's necklace (and it's been focused on too much to ignore); On the hilt of Hiro's sword and as Ikkin's tattoo.
And yet, those are three characters I still can't draw a straight line through.

Our wings are not tired.
Reading the web content just isn't possible right now so I have to depend on this thread for the hints and insights.
Mohinder is alive. Not in the bestest of shape.

Yep. She was on her way to infiltrate Primatech, but she was waylaid by her conscience: she took down a pornographer instead. In more interesting news, Bennet enlisted her help in Claire's escape plan.

I think we need a policy for discussing the web comics in this thread. I\'d prefer blackfont, but would be OK with whitefont as a compromise.

The comics are sometimes very spoilery for upcoming episodes.

Yeah, while they do seem to be part of the story, their content doesn't show up in episodes for weeks, if at all. So far, it all seems to be Hana-related; non-Hana web story hasn't really figured into the episodes, although there was that one comic that told us what happened after Claire crashed the quarterback's car before we found out the next week.

We also found out that Sylar hadn't escaped when he killed Eden.
Edit: I mean when Eden killed herself to avoid having her brains et.

I haven't gotten around to reading the comics (bad fan! no cookie!) but I don't mind blackfont if the producers really do intend the viewers to have all the knowledge of plot presented in the comics.
