I was pleasently surprised to see how abstract this series is, I didn't expect it coming from a major American broadcasting company. Not only is it international but also has high fantasy elements, especially with Hiro... these elements usually don't go over well with American audiences, but Heros manages to pull them together by creating very down to earth characters with whom people can relate, with their own problems. Right now heros are starting to meet eachother and I predict soon enough that the sceptical ones (the painter, the congressman, two faced woman.) will come to realize their role. I have a bunch of theories of where the show will go on from here, but I won't list them here as they're far too long and intricate. I will say this though, I do believe Peter has the power to mimic other peoples powers, sort of like Ditto in the pokeman series. Pure speculation though.
