** There is a similarity, but it seems Amanda's is based in her mood. She reacts on emotion, whereas [[Trevor]] was more clinical. Like the difference between [[Daphne]] and [[Edgar]] -- [[User:Mr Zeddemore|Mr Zeddemore]] 17:53, 7th October 2009

*** Oh boy, I looked at the talk page for Tevor's ability, and I don't want that to happen again, but it does seem to be the same, except that Amanda has no control over it.--[[User:Ratclaws|Ratclaws]] 13:39, 7 October 2009 (EDT)

****Just beacuse one user of an ability has much more control over it than another or use it differently, doesn't necessarily make them different abilities. Look at [[Meredith]] [[and||pyrokinesis]] [[Flint]]; [[Niki]] [[and||enhanced_strength]] [[Mohinder]]; [[Linderman]] [[and||healing]] [[Ishi]]; and [[Tracy]] [[and||freezing]] [[Sylar]]. --[[User:ElleFanBoy|ElleFanBoy]] 15:34, 7 October 2009 (EDT)

Source/Explanation
In Boom, Noah explicitly states the ability name.


Trevor

Anyone caught the similarity between Amanda's power and Trevor's? Both make objects explode. AltesUTC CH

But Trevor's Ability has no sign of burning or anything like that.--Icefire227 15:11, 6 October 2009 (EDT)

  • I agree with Icefire. Trevor's ability is more like shattering not exploding.--WarGrowlmon18 18:14, 6 October 2009 (EDT)
  • Possibly that Trevor's was more a tamed version, didn't the writers say that Arthur's power was like Pete's but more advanced? --TrueBlueBrooklynite 20:19, 6 October 2009 (EDT)
    • Yes there was burning, check this out: AltesUTC CH
