this image no longer appears in the article --SacValleyDweller (talk) 01:48, 28 August 2008 (EDT)

Speaking of image, shouldn't the main image be changed to portray the power as it was shown in the show? Intuitive Empath 20:49, 17 October 2008 (EDT)

• I suppose it could, but I think the best image for it is the one we have right now. The others are very static images. Image:Powers German open car doors.jpg is basically just a car with open doors, Image:The German - Magnetism (Screen 2).jpg looks like he's waving to a bird outside, and Image:The German - Magnetism (Screen 1).jpg isn't bad, but it just looks like he's going to grab the dial or something. At least Image:Powers Magnetism.JPG shows wavy lines to show that some movement is occurring. It looks like something supernatural is going on. But the main images don't always need to be ones from the show. Sound manipulation is from a webisode (and a pretty cool image at that!), and clairsentience isn't from the world of Heroes at all! Personally, I don't think the magnetism image needs to be changed. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:29, 18 October 2008 (EDT)

Canon name

Wasn't his tracker shown on the show and didn't it say "Magnetism"? Therequiembellishere 13:51, 18 October 2008 (EDT)
