Then again, I felt that way when Bennet (whom people keep referring to as HRG long after his name has been revealed) had his long-awaited eyeball-shooting prophecy fulfilled, only to come back to life minutes later.There is a real double-standard that I see about Heroes in these threads. If the characters act stupidly or display bathos, somebody defends the show for portraying the characters as real people, not larger-than-life comic book characters. Then when the show has its moments where something is handled in a ham-handed manner for dramatic purposes, somebody jumps forth to defend it as being very true to its comic-book inspirations. And sometimes it's the same darn person.I think we get the latter here for Nathan's death. If your intention is to silence someone before they expose you, then do not wait until the instant before he makes his announcement to assassinate him--especially not in front of twenty or so cameras. This is indiscreet, and tends to spur investigations, not defuse them. I mean, Peter could call the press up the next day and make his own announcement about why his brother was murdered.Then again, it's pretty dumb for Nathan to blithely stage that press conference in open public. "Big crowded room with lots of exit and entry points? Sounds good."???Last season--err, pardon me, in "volume 1"--Sylar is primarily just a shadowy, faceless, brain-splicing boogeyman. He gets three or four episodes of focus, tops. And all we find out is that he's a momma's boy who wanted to be special, and this turns him into a remorseless killer. Then he kills mommy and decides "ah, what the helll, I'll blow up New York".</blockquote>
