Notes

¹ Since Evan did not posses Rapid cell regeneration, it is assumed that he was bound by a normal human lifespan of about 70 years Assuming he was 30 years old in 1777, when he was last seen alive, he should have died naturally Ca. 1827
² In an interview, the writers of Golden Handshake noted that the Graphic novel series depicts falsified information.

^CBR In the September 30, 2008 edition of Comic Book Resources' Behind the Eclipse, Writers Joe Pokaski and Aron Coleite stated that Sylar's bout with the Shanti virus caused him to loose, telekinesis aside, all of the abilities that he acquired prior to his infection.

• At the end of Dual, the fates of the following characters and their abilities are currently unknown (though some are likely dead):

1. Sylar
2. Danny Pine
3. Meredith and Flint Gordon
4. Eric Doyle

• Mohinder, after his bath in formula as it was being destroyed (Dual), may have lost his ability.
