People from Heroes I dearly miss;
the original Peter Petrelli- (you know, the one who was so sure of himself with the awesome emo hair?)
the future Sylar- he was TOO hilarious to turn down ( "Ahh, Peter! If I'd known you were coming, I would've made more cookies!")
Adam Monroe- I was crushed to see him kick the bucket. He rocked.
Nikki's son- He had promise of being a GREAT superdude.

I'm actually not convinced Adam is dead. o_0 We have yet to understand Sylar's cryptic "You can never die, Claire"....
Well, actually it's mostly because the writers seem reluctant to permanently kill any characters. =F I don't believe any deaths.
Is anyone else surprised by Tracy's likability? I couldn't stand Nikki, but Tracy isn't so bad.
EDIT: My spelling is abominable.

I was actually shocked! Because if he could heal, why wasn't he regenerating while papa petrellii was stealing his powers? (Thus living, and maintiaining his powers? (though this might be a stretch)....) |

Like rock submits to paper, so does Adam Monroe to Arthur Petrelli.

I always suspected that Adam Monroe was an ancestor of Claire's, but then they just unexpectedly killed him off, so perhaps we'll never know.

I always suspected that Adam was the first hero, and every other hero was a descendant of his. But now he's dead and there's a formula going around. =<
I'm annoyed that he never had any real plot, you know? He started the company, he's been around for ages.....so much potential. But no. |

Well, because Petrelli was stealing his powers.
Admittedly, we don't know that the drain is permanent - we'd expect Arthur to have amassed quite a stock of abilities in his time, which brings up the question of why he'd need to nick Peter's. Not to mention that this would make a neat little explanation for why future-Peter has a scar (that is, he got it before his abilities returned, and couldn't heal it because that was the state his body was in after he could heal again). If, then, it is a temporary thing, Adam's dust may eventually find that it once again has the ability to regenerate.
Whether he can regenerate after receiving four hundred years to the face is another question, but if Peter can survive being at ground zero of a nuclear explosion, then we'd guess "yes."

| Something else that kind of got me was that Peter was having trouble controling Sylars ability, which requires him to kill in order to obsorb others powers. After Peter stole it from him, he wanted to kill all the time. Why doesn't his father want to kill all the time now? Why is he able to control it so easily? |

It could be that Papa Petrelli only absorbed Peter's core power (ability mimicry) rather than his secondary powers (everything he learned). Now Papa Petrelli doesn't need to leave his workers helpless--he can just have their powers, then drain them if he doesn't like them.

That's unlikely, given that Arthur already showed off electricity and telekinesis.  |

(Number two was mostly based on what I heard here. Maybe not acurate anymore)
Yeah, I'm cynical about most things that are popular. Bad habit >_>
I just haven't gotten around to watching ANY tv in a seriously long time. Not since I've had libraries of comics, animes and video games to burn through...

I really like heroes but there are a couple of things bothering me. Last night was 'Angels and Monsters'. Bennet, Claire and the blackhole guy were a few feet away talking and Sylar was obviously curious what they were talking about, does he have so many powers that he's forgotten about the super-hearing?
The second thing bugging me is that this whole mess started because Hiro opened the safe with the formula in it. So why doesn't he just pop back in time and tell his past self not to open the safe?

@ BriT: Because that would be too easy!
@ Mane: You never know, some people... XD And maybe Matt if he lost a some weight.

Actually, if you've noticed, Sylar has used only his telekinesis this season. This is not a mistake. The writers are trying to create vagueness regarding whether he still has the rest of his powers. Though it makes no sense whatsoever, I think Sylar actually lost all the rest of his powers.

| That tvtrope link wrote: | | As of Volume 3, the show seems to be averting it more with more use of superpowers. Four episodes in and it's already had more superpower action then Volumes 1 and 2 combined! Guess the show's popularity has justified a budget increase. |

How could he lose all his other powers but not telekenisis? Telekenisis wasn't even his original power.
