Heroes has now officially returned with a double episode this Monday - following an hour long clip show reintroduction that I really could’ve done without.
Every fan of the show has been watching the web exclusives, web comics and replaying the Season 2 DVD until the disk melts. The preview show I guess was meant to make us literally fall off the edge of our seats like we all did today when Clay “9/10ths out of the closet” Aiken finally sashayed his buttermilk biscuits into the open, to massive faux surprise.
I like that Hiro has a new quest because he’s the fan boy with a greater destiny that all of us want to be. I admire them for waiting this long to finally give him a worthy power counterpart in the bad girl speedster Daphne. There’s only so long that one can endure an “I don’t know my own strength yet” learning curve. Her intro was great with the ultra-slow time merely something that she accelerated out of to smack down our naive boy. This attitudinal hurdle of his development may be breached with the Ando betrayal revelation. Yeah, it could be some shape changer, or the Butterfly Effect will prevent that occurrence - then again that could be a new future - but I think it would be cool for Ando to get powers - NO ONE DESERVES POWERS MORE THAN ANDO SAN.
Now Mohinder has opened that possibility with his powers shot - assuming it doesn’t just make the recipient Brundle from the Goldblum remake of The Fly. What the fuck were they going for with that? It goes against the whole adrenal trigger for powers when he’s just hanging around doing super shit. The one plus was Maya gets naked, a long time coming (another probable side effect of his powers). Why she submitted to the titanic tantra dicking I couldn’t fathom what with all the “dis is el diablo” speech about corrupting powers. Maybe it’s some pheromone he exudes now too? Maybe just an impulsive Jessica moment?
Where the hell is that bitch? Troubled single Mom Nikki, hulking whore Jessica and now cryokinetic Neo-Con groupie Terri Strauss. Captain Sheridan back on the tube is welcomed though, but not likely for much development in the patsy role. Leaves me wondering when/if Micah and the Katrina cousin get back into the story. Nikki, if she is the base character, must have the power to split personalities to deal with trauma complete with new powers of the persona - kinda lame, but better than damage sponge Claire.
We see a dark version of the future Cheerleader, but I’m unsure as to whether this will manifest although she’s got the potential with her whole “am I still human” numbness. Daddy brought in fire mommy, while he’s off to kick some ass. We may get some more backstory out this hopefully, as opposed to cliched estranged parent schmultz. Being ability raped by Sylar was a powerful scene but I wasn’t surprised she lived, nor should anyone else. I was mainly pissed that Mr. Creepy has a new power.
I must say that Sylar is my favorite character because I actually HATE him. Ironically, with his powers I’d be doing similar things to him - so he’s some kind of emotional projection of my own id. Most of my affiliation with Peter is that he can actually kill the bastard, but now there’s a weird sibling dynamic soon to surface. Now Momma Petrelli is a lying bitch, and this could be just a ploy to get S-Man to hunt down the villains, but Gabriel, Peter, and Nathan all share an biblical theme. Only Nathan is picking up on the angel role and may have the soul-swapping power that future Pete has, since he’s chatting with the ghost of Linderman - and can access his powers it seems since Peter never met old boy before DL made him a knucklehead.
Scar Pete from the future I like cause he’s the badass of the series now, save Bennet who’s just now getting into the saddle that says “Bad Muthfucka” on it. He knows the future and his own powers, including some yet to be revealed, and moving with clear direction. He ported Parkman to Africa like “this won’t do, laters”. The cop can stay in Africa for all I care, assuming he’s not trapped in his own mind somehow. If not, atleast we get a new black hero out of the deal.
Highly anticipated: My man Jaime Hector from The Wire is a villain with the ability to “read your fears and convert it to his strength, awesome strength”. I’m staying tuned for that alone.
