I watched Heroes tonight. I loved it. It's the comic book show I've always wished existed... and didn't think ever would. I liked it more than any comic book movie I've seen except Unbreakable. The characters were intriguing - Mohindar is my favourite so far, but I also loved Pete and who could resist Hiro? All good. Good in many ways, and respectful of the audience - taking the material seriously, even when doing the funny bits.
I kept making analogies to X-Men as I watched. Mohindar's father's map is a low-tech version of Cerebro. The villain must be related to Henry Peter Gyrich, by way of X-Files.
