Heroes Season [Volume] 1(#23)---5/21/07-'How to stop an Exploding Man' Season Ending.

[Vocenoctum]

Nope. The taser falls to the ground and Bennett and the Haitian run up as Peter throws Claude off the roof and flies away.

Well, if he can't use more than one power at a time, he should have just done something else to end the radioactive stuff!

Well done, IMO. But, hehe, am I the only one who was betting with himself that they'd forget that an atomic explosion would create an EMP? Yep, the lights were still on. Oh yeah, and let's everyone look up at an atomic explosion and have our eyes melt! Loved the preview for next season. But if Sylar did survive having a sword run through his heart I expect that when he shows up again it will be my last episode. As I've said before, I've hated that in the comics for a looong time now.

It looked like Sylar got a sword through the gut, not the heart.

So, I wonder how future Hiro will react? I mean, in his world, Peter is alive. Will future Hiro be in an alternate timeline where Peter is still alive, or will the future be changed and the future Hiro we know (as well as the future we've seen) will be totally different?

I the only one who was betting with himself that they'd forget that an atomic explosion would create an EMP?

As soon as the explosion happened, I turned to my wife and said "EMP." And of course, nuthin'.

My wife thinks that all Nathan had to do was fly Peter up high enough and he could fly off and save himself. It's a possibility, no doubt. Unless there's a body, in these matters, there's no death (leaving aside for a moment what "the body" would be if you're at the center of a thermonuclear exposion, but I'll settle for a flashback in which Peter watches him disintegrate).

 

[John Crichton]

It's possible that, not being able to control his blowing up ability would keep him from being able to control his other abilities (like flying) as well. What I want to know is why they couldn't shoot him and pull out the bullet later or just tranquilize him like they did to Ted.

Because the guy who actually has a good shot couldn't shoot. And the cop was already down. Not to mention that only Claire, Peter, Nathan and Mr. Bennett knew about the headshot. If perhaps there was a character with super-aim, that would have worked but as they set it up, just shooting Peter in the head wasn't possible at that point.

Plus, that may not have worked. He still could have gone off, not to mention the bullets could have melted before they took him down. I have no problem with Nathan's save.

 

[John Crichton]

Also, something just occurred to me. We have parallels to established comic book characters already. Nikki/Hulk, Peter/Rogue, etc.

Noah Bennett appears to be the show's version of Batman. Dude always has a plan.

 

[Sir Brennen]

At the beginning of volume 2, when Hiro hit the ground and saw medival soldiers in the background, how many people expected a Delta 88 to fall to earth behind him?

And wasn't there an eclipse in Evil Dead 2, as well?

 

[papastebu]

Looked like him to me.

Oh, and on Sylar surviving...methinks the cockroach connection that keeps appearing with him is an important part of it.

I think he melted himself and then went into the sewer. Sorry if this is a repeat, but I can't get the first page to load, I imagine because it is too visually-intensive. Too many images for my pathetic dial-up to handle.

Future who?

Yes. Yes, and... uhh... yes.
