Notes to users of this page

GNs listed with Red issue numbers I personally consider deuterocanon (less than the near canon level of the Black GNs and Heroes Evolutions) for the following reasons:

1. I do not believe that the writers of those GNs were members of the regular Heroes staff, as most of them were likely written during the Writers Strike, during which the Heroes staff writers were not allowed to write anything for Heroes or exercise any oversight.
2. The time frame in which all but GN 75 A Lesson in Electricity take place is out of synch with events in the rest of the Heroes story. Specifically, the following elements are out of synch:

A) -- Nathan is a baby when Linderman visits Arthur in WB pt 5. However, Linda Tavara's encounter of Linderman in WB pt 7 places this this meeting at a point where Nathan would be older than his apparent age in WB pt 5.

B) -- The Sanjog arc, the Hana and Drucker arc, and On the Lam take place in 2008, significantly ahead of the point in the story where we left it in Powerless.

i) -- If the Company is destroyed, defeated, or otherwise rendered nonexistent, inoperative, or inert before then, this will cause major plot holes.
