Because he's essentially a comic book villian. They never die.

Also his contract is extended into next season.

There's no reason why he couldn't have been killed by Hiro if Hiro'd gone for the neck or something.

I agree. The only reason bullets haven't killed him is because telekinesis was one of the first, if not THE first, powers he acquired.

If you recall he'd been shot by the FBI agent episodes ago (when he first appeared) and hadn't died then (at least I believe that was him), he just did the really cool thing where he got back up in the shadow and then disappeared!

Also...this is some of the best television that I've watched in a long time. Although it did make me made that every time someone went into Isaac's apartment all they could do was stare at paintings when there was/could have been a murderer in there!! And they knew it! The scene with Simone's dad was sweet, but they should have explained it, I was like huh?
I really hope Simone comes back on the show, I'm sure that she must have powers too if her father did, I mean he seemed to have some really big power to be so involved and since it's genetic...

The scene with Peter and Nathan was so sweet. But I really did want Claire to shoot too. She kept on making those cute determined faces and talking about the cause, but when the time came to walk the walk well...she balked. One last thing. This person that can see Molly back, who is this and why does he have to be a man, I'd totally love to have a strong female villain. Nathan and Peter's mom isn't really one, she's just a stupid b****

I also can't wait to see the amazing powers the Japanese people of the past have because obviously if an eclipse happened there the same way...! Bring on Volume 2!!
IIRC-Sylar was shot at. We do not know if he was hit or not. And if so, how badly. Also, one can get shot or "knifed" and not die. Hero did not finish him off by either cutting head off or just pulling and twisting blade a bit.

My problem was that one one even asked about his body or said anything about a blood trail. NYPD cops would see see something of that nature in a CS like that one.

I missed the shot of his eyes-what was that all about?

No, I'm pretty sure he was hit. Why else would he have gone down and then risen up like that? It wasn't shown, but heavily implied.
Then again..he could have been trying to fool her, but since she's in the FBI then she should have been able to hit something. I'm talking way back when Parkman was helping out the FBI. Well, I guess die wasn't the right word, but the way he rose up also implied that he could "heal" or "regenerate" already. That was the impression I initially had of Sylar before he was formally reintroduced.

Does anyone else kinda miss Ted?!

Where did Sylar get the telekinesis power from? I know where he picked up most of his other powers.

IIRC-we, as veiwers, never saw him hit. And if he was hit, what kind of injury it was.
So, based on that and the "save the cheerleader" thread of show, IMHO he did not have any "regenerate power".
He just used the power(s) that he had to get out of Dodge.

He got it before we were introduced to him. Does anyone remember what that first guy had who came into the clock shop?

After helping Papa Suresh he got access to the list and called the guy with telekinesis so they could meet at the clock shop. That was his first kill.

ok aside from the fact that Syler is a supervillain and this is tv and that his contract was renewed...

is there a reason in the story why he can't die?

Not that we've been told yet. We have seen him appear to be shot but then levitate back up. We also saw him fake his death convincingly enough to fool a doctor but then he was a-okay and ready to kill when the doctor let his guard down.

SoCalGirl is right. He's got enough powers that he's, while not actually invincible, very very hard to kill. Possibly his TK could have helped him survive the stab wound by closing off any large bleeders.

I don't think he was ever wounded by the FBI officer's shots (or Parkman's, I don't remember who shot) but stopped them with the TK and faked falling as a strategy.

Miss Universe On HEROES?

The new Miss Universe may have landed herself a role on the show. She would be the love interest of one of the characters.

Well they said Hiro was going to have a love interest this next season, so it would definitely make sense... not that it couldn't be for someone else though.

WARNING: Spoilers for Season 2! From a reliable source.

There has been plenty of news about the upcoming season of Heroes floating around already and for those of you that don't already know this....well there will be a Heroes spinoff called Heroes: Origins.

Origins will be a 6-Episode story run during the mid-season hiatus and feature new Heroes with powers and the fans get to vote which new character will join the regular cast full time.

Also, Heroes will have a HUGE event during ComicCon 07 in San Diego where new members of the cast will be introduced and there will be a sneak peek of the upcoming season.



1) Season starts off in another town and a new leading hero in a small town down on his luck....

2) Around Episode 9, some of the current ideas are VERY Twilight Zone meets LOST....

3) Majority of original cast will return, BUT not all will be regulars and will appear from "time to time" with cameos....

4) A NEW villain has been cast who (the actor) is known to some fans....

-- If you have read the rumors about David Anders (Sark from Alias) joining the cast as the character KANE...then I guess this confirms it

5) Zachary Quinto (Sylar) will still be on the show

6) Christopher Eccleston will return but he is NOT please with his role on the show and wants more time

7) New actor coming on board Dania Ramirez will be on for 12 episodes, character's name is Maya (it is still possible she might play another character)

for those that think that name is familiar, she played Callisto in X-Men: The Last Stand

8) A hero will be killed off in the first two episodes

9) Casting for following characters: Claire's boyfriend, Princess Keriyama.,and cheerleaders named April and May
