Newsarama’s review of “One of Us One of Them”
CBR sat down with Masi Oka, a.k.a. Hiro Nakamura to ask him about what the future holds for the new season of “Heroes,” his new speedster Nemesis Daphne and how to deal with your best friend killing you with powers he doesn’t have. Read all about it!
PLUS here is the 2 minute replay of the September 29th episode – “One of Us One of Them” (click link for full synopsis)
Great episode… The reaction of doc that “Tracy Strauss” tracked down switched my question from “how is Tracy related to Niki?” to “how many of her are there out there?” When Micah found a link, I thought TRIPLETS! But if Niki was engineered, there could be dozens of her… All with different powers?
I do have one problem with Sylar as H.R.G.’s partner. Haven’t they ever read a comic where a villain is conscripted to help with a bigger evil? You ALWAYS wire them with some kind of device that will kill or incapacitate them if out of control (a la Mystique and Sabertooth’s Forge-forged collars in the old X-Factor). Nothing stops Sylar from killing H.R.G. but the desire to please his new “mommy.” I’m surprised he didn’t “save” the villains just to get them alone for all their powers. This mad dog needs a leash.
Another question… does Sylar need a LIVE person to learn their powers? Could he cut open Niki’s dead head and learn super strength? Or does he need to observe the living brain?
Thoughts? Theories? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Meanwhile, Shock-Headed Peter and the Dust Devil investigate a mysterious, ancient drug dealer, and a very public multiple homicide sets Captain Jetman and Lieutenant Peregrine scrambling for answers.

#23 of The Boys kicks off a brand seven issue new story arc titled “We Gotta Go Now.”
The world’s most profitable superheroes are the G-Men. They’re outcasts. They’re renegades. They’re rogues. They’re outsiders. And now they’re in Butcher’s boys’ sights.
All is not well with mysterious millionaire John Godolkin’s band of misfits. Silver Kincaid, one of the original G-Men, has just committed suicide in the most public and grotesque way imaginable. That’s not good news for Vought-American’s number one franchise, with G-Force, G-Coast, G-Style, G-Wiz, the G-Brits and the G-Nomads all depending on their slice of the G-pie. There’s far too much at stake for anyone to go poking around the G-Mansion now. Who knows what dirty secrets might be waiting down there in the dark?

Here’s hoping the magical arc investigating Vixen’s powers is more interesting than YET ANOTHER AMAZO STORY. Glad that fiasco is over. Lets see some real story telling with the archetypes of the DCU? With the JLA up against Anansi, the original trickster god, things should get interesting. Plus I just love seeing Zatanna front and center in her fishnets, second only to the DCU’s holy trinity. Plus Firestorm too! This cover gives me a fanboy hardon.
Does that make me more or less gay? I’m unsure.

Vixen and Animal Man journey into the sacred Tantu Totem to solve the mystery of their altered powers. But Anansi, the African spider god responsible for these changes, has only begun reshaping the powers and histories of the Justice League, as eight-year-old Bruce Wayne shoots the burglar who killed his parents, Wonder Woman retires from the JLA after the tragic death of her husband, Superman, and The Green Lantern Corps quarantines Earth after one of their number destroys an American city. With the team’s history changing before Vixen’s eyes, is the JLA we now know gone forever?
NON SEQUITUR: If you haven’t read Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman about the trials and tribulations of Anansi’s offspring – check it out. His American Gods is also an excellent read. If you don’t mind books without pictures. I read everything.
