Re: "Heroes" on NBC
Er, thanks, Helen. When I asked, "Who is Sylar?" it was more a rhetorical query. Where he fits is becoming clear, but his backstory will probably reveal a lot. My guess he was the first "special person" the professor found, but after helping him develop his powers he turned on him.
Although Claire's adopted dad is being positioned as the bad guy, and has certainly done some menacing things, his character is multifaceted enough so that I suspect he could actually be on the heroes' side, in a way. Perhaps he's collecting or contacting them to protect them... and perhaps that's how Claire ended up his daughter however many years ago. Sylar may in fact be the overarching villain.
It also seems she didn't start to heal until after the branch was removed from her head... and after that, some fairly severe injuries were gone in a matter of seconds. Every superpower has a catch, and I wonder if her healing is stopped if the weapon remains in her body.
Well, every superhero needs a costume. Hers is the most established! A pity that for all his familiarity with the rules and trappings of superhero-dom, Hiro seems to have settled on a snappy suit.
