New hero next season for Heros

From the SFsignal's blog

Heroes is set to gain a new hero next season. Mohinder's sister, complete with an unannounced power. You may remember that Mohinder's mother told him his sister, Shanti, was dead. Did she really die or does death have something to do with the nature of her power, sort of a reverse of Claire's power? The character of Shanti will appear in 8 episodes next season.

Heroes Episode 4

Heroes took a big leap (no pun intended) this week. Nothing gross happens to Claire the indestructible cheerleader. No sir, we went from oh man that’s gross to oh cool! And I want to tell you the CGI used for the flying stunts should make the guys at the Superman franchise go “how dey do dat?” And I mean it. When did you EVER see superman break the sound barrier and do it within say 100 feet of the ground? Well the computer geeks at Heroes must be working overtime. 0 to faster than a speeding bullet straight up with the accompanying vapor halo and sonic boom. Yeeeeeeeee haaaaa. Oh and no candy .a.. 2 point landing…going from supersonic to 0 I want to tell you this guy does some serious skidding when he touches down…You can tell they pretty much blew their CGI budget on that piece because the rest of the hour is pretty low key.. Isaac who sees the future still paints, Claire is still indestructible, Hiro can control time, Nathan flies…oh boy does he fly, Matt is reading mind like crazy…and may be going there too, Niki still doesn’t know that her alter ego seems to be a crack assassin, but the biggest surprise this week outside of Nathan leaving contrails over the Midwestern skies, is his brother Peter. See, Peter thinks he can fly and has…cool…but….when push comes to shove, he finishes Isaac’s painting of the future with the same glazed ghost eyed look and style…so Peter is deficiently the wild card for next week along with Niki. I have a feeling that someone has a serious ass kicking in the very near future served up by Niki’s alter ego. If you haven’t caught this episode yet, Look for a encore on the sci-fi channel or download the episode from NBC.COM. Save the Cheerleader Save the World….

Nbc's Heros episode 3

Last week in our cute indistructable cheerleader Claire was the victim in a brutal rape that ended in her "death".

This week's show opens in what is turning out to be the trade mark of NBC's Heros...she wakes up on an autopsy table after the medical examiner removes a chunk of wood from her head...oh did I mention that she had already opened her chest? Oh my yes the mysteries continue to unfold however NBC is ladeling on a heavy helping of shock value. Issac continues to paint a future that shows a catastrophic future for New York...and strangest of all a vist from Hiero...from the future.
