    Well seems ok to revive this thread, seeing a how its still about the same season and all.

    So who watched the season finale? Did you find it good? Why the hell did:

    (SPOILER)Nathan sacrifice himself to stop the bomb when Claire could have just have shot him, causing him to die and come back, without the bomb going off. So Syler is alive, hmmm. And who is this man who is supposed to be worse than him? Molly mentioned him.

    I watched it. It sure left you with a lot of unanswered questions for next season. Sylar is still alive and somehow I just can't believe they would kill off both Nathan and Peter. I'm hoping not.

    Well Peter isnt dead, since he can regenerate, but Nathan is probably dead, for now.
    They will probably bring him back one way or another.

    Well, I thought that was a pretty lame finale. (SPOILER)The solution was to set the bomb off in the sky? Please. What a cop-out. Way too sappy for my tastes, too. I hope they have a big enough budget next season to have their heroes actually do something besides stand around and talk.

    I was, however, really excited by Nikki's quickening. FINALLY!

    It was a let down.

    I mean, the entire season was leading up to this ONE episode. And all we get during the final showdown was a couple punches from Peter, one twack from Nikki, and one thrust from Hiro.

    It was just anti-climatic.

    I mean, I still liked the episode, it just didn't live up to all the hype. All that save the Cheerleader save the world stuff.

    I'm excited for Volume II though. Looks interesting.

    My guess is that Nathan simply flew really high, then let go of Peter right before he blew and jetted off. I mean, it looks like he can fly pretty freaking fast.

    Anyway, yeah, longing for more answers in Volume II. can't wait to find out who the bad man Molly can't think about is and what Hiro will do in 1671.

    I agree with Miriel, the whole season was hyping this finale and the showdown with Sylar was no where near as awesome as it should have been.

    But I still really liked the episode. I hope Nathan is dead, Peter should survive because he's sexy

    Things that happened in the last episode:

    - we get confirmation there's a new 'scary man' who can 'see you' if that girl thinks about him. Who can this person be? The new villain?
    - Nikki used her power in front of Peter -- Peter is now Hulk smash power now *yay*
    - all the heroes meet each other, but I presume Nikki / DL will be taking care of their kid in quiet sneakiness now
    - Peter is alive, it's been stated repeatedly he won't die
    - Nathan could have flew away from Peter to survive.
    - Remember the bomb goes off during the day (actually two days after election day). The last episode took place on election day. So...

    What's this about Sylar still alive?

    (SPOILER)At the end of the episode you can see where Sylar was lying when he was stabbed is now just a pool of blood. There is a blood trail that leads to a manhole cover that's slightly open, implying that he slipped down it and escaped. If DL can do all he did after being shot, I'm sure Sylar can do that much.

    I'm assuming he'll train with his sword and find out that he's a decendent of the ancient samurai he's always admired. Ever since we saw "bad-ass" Hiro in the subway when he contacted Peter, I've assumed that he would go back in time to feudal Japan to learn sword skills. I was also expecting Hiro and Ando to go back to feudal Japan to get the broken sword's creator to fix it for them, rather than finding a sword-fixer in NYC.

    lol Hiro gets to meet Kensei. How cool is that?

    I didn't think this episode was a let down. I wasn't expecting a big climactic fight. It was never getting hyped up to be anything like that as far as I saw it - Hiro would only get one chance to hit Sylar, and Petrelli's deal was far more about controlling Sprague's power than about fighting Sylar, and has been for like four episodes now. So it was pretty likely to be a lot of talking and "Kill me!" "I can't!" and stuff, and not so much combat. Besides, Sylar is still alive, and IIRC Kring said the fight we saw set up at the end of Five Years Gone would be shown in some form.

    Molly and Micah were adorable. Parkman noooooooo ;______; He's my fave character why did that happen? I want him to live even more than Molly does.

    Very true. Now that you mention it, I remember when Hiro first went into the near-term future and was blamed for Issac's death that it was mid-day at the police station when the bomb went off.

    I just started catching up to heroes today by watching a few episodes online and I was startled when I witnessed the new plot twist. This wasn't because it surprised me, but that I immediately noticed that It was the exact same plot twist from the Greatest graphic novel of all time: Watchmen. I am a huge comic geek, and surely like the masses of other watchmen fans we were laughing at the depths Tim Kring's writing team went for a supposedly "original" plot.

    In Heroes the Casino Owner Mr. Linderman, a very rich and now retired hero reveals that he is behind the planned explosion in New York in hopes that it will unite the world. In watchmen, written twenty years earlier, a retired and very rich superhero named Adrien Veidt (Ozymandias) reveals that he was behind an attack on New York which killed millions in hopes of uniting the world and distract from the current cold war. Aside from this, the Character Sylar's origin is not unlike that of Dr. Manhattan; in which, they both happened to have been young watchmakers before receiving their powers.

    This plot twist resemblance is far too similar to be unnoticed. I am worried that it may make many believe that the soon to be made Watchmen movie is in fact stealing from Heroes. Did anybody else notice this as clearly as I have, does this fact not bother anybody as much as it does to me?

    Unfortunately you will have to crusade for the cause of the Watchman, and point out that the copyright date is far before Heroes.
