Hiro... with a warrior's knot and a samurai sword, though, got my inner anime-geek fangirling like mad though.
Me too. It was wonderful.
Hmm - I wonder when we'll catch up to Mohindar.
I begin to wonder if Claire's Dad is as bad as he seems, or if something unexpected is going on.
Weapon X is a series of comics about Wolverine in Marvel Comics - there was something called the Weapon X project where a certain villainous quasi-governmental organization was doing nasty illegal experiments on mutant subjects, including Wolverine. Most subjects in their hands died, but Wolverine, because of his healing powers, could survive - after they'd given him an adamantium skeleton and claws. There have been some interesting plotlines concerning Weapon X, and every time I see a TV show or movie where someone is interfering medically with superheroes, either to change them or examine them (as Claire's Dad seemed to do with Matt), I think of Wolverine as Weapon X.
