== Fan submission...really! ==

I had to wonder whether or not the dream submissions at [[activatingevolution.org]] really were from fans or whether they were written by writers under pseudonyms. Describing ''Pieces of Me'', [[Joe Tolerico]] said, "This story is a novel based on a fan dream submission sent to the Activating Evolution Dream Study." I'm taking his word for it. I guess we should read ''Pieces of Me'' as a clever piece of marketing to drive fans to activatingevolution.org, then. I don't have any confirmation, but I would expect more dream-based graphic novels, and probably more [[Sanjog]]. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 20:41, 11 March 2008 (EDT)

== Sigmund Freud ==
Would it be a good idea to add [[wikipedia:Sigmund Freud|Sigmund Freud]] to the [[Portal:Miscellaneous References|miscellaneous references]] portal? He's been mentioned in ''[[Episode:Homecoming|Homecoming]]'', [[Bridget Bailey#More info about my visions|Heroes Evolutions]], and this graphic novel. --{{User:Ice Vision/sig}} 20:53, 11 March 2008 (EDT)
* Sounds fine to me. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:00, 11 March 2008 (EDT)

== the baby ==

I would think that the baby was removed from the mirror because the voice was changed from crying to saying Ryan's name. -[[User:Level|Lөv]][[User talk:Level|ө]][[Special:Contributions/Level|l]] 01:33, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

Quality

  • The quality of the art was great again... though I would have released this novel before History of a Secret, as that novel was definitely more interesting to read. There was a lot of good character buildup of Ryan in this novel, so I hope we get to see him again. Maybe he'll turn out to be an evil dream manipulator...kind of like the Nightmare man, but without the daydreaming ability. That said, I was hoping to find out Ryan had an ability at the end of the novel, but didn't get any concrete evidence he did, so I finished reading kind of disappointed.--MiamiVolts (talk) 05:34, 11 March 2008 (EDT)
    • See my edit here to gain some insight about the rest of the story ;)... 'ROESian
    • Yh I was looking forward to finding he had a power, quite a good novel actualy, I hope there is a Pieces of Me part 2 --(. .') 05:47, 11 March 2008 (EDT)

Robert Atkins

  • The artist, Robert Atkins, is really Robert Q. Atkins, and has a website here which references his work for NBC's Heroes.--MiamiVolts (talk) 05:56, 11 March 2008 (EDT)

-_- I want my time back

This is probably the most pointless GN ever. They didn't even give him a power. I feel ripped off. --Hero!(talk)(contribs) 14:06, 11 March 2008 (EDT)

I don't have any confirmation, but I would expect more dream-based graphic novels, and probably more Sanjog. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 20:41, 11 March 2008 (EDT)

Sigmund Freud

Would it be a good idea to add Sigmund Freud to the miscellaneous references portal? He's been mentioned in Homecoming, Heroes Evolutions, and this graphic novel. --Ice Vision (talk) 20:53, 11 March 2008 (EDT)

the baby

I would think that the baby was removed from the mirror because the voice was changed from crying to saying Ryan's name. -Lөvөl 01:33, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

  • Yeah, that makes sense. Let me tweak the note a bit. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 01:34, 12 March 2008 (EDT)
