Summary

• If anyone would like to edit it, make it better, that's fine with me, I just started it with the main points of the GN. --Dman dustin 06:41, 15 January 2008 (EST)

Needs more Bishop!

Or at least thats what they seem to think with the abundance of Elle and Bob in recent GNs. --  Seclusion  talk / contribs 07:04, 15 January 2008 (EST)

• I feel the same way about Bennet. He has a lot of appearances. I want to see more of Matt, D.L., Adam, Hiro, Sylar and Mohinder (the strongest people in all the known galaxies). --DocM 07:05, 15 January 2008 (EST)
  • It could mean Elle and Bob's future is grim and they might not last very long, so they're giving us as much as they can so we aren't disappointed with their storyline if they end up dead on the show --Dman dustin 07:11, 15 January 2008 (EST)
    • Interesting Theory. However, Episodes and novels are not usually inter-connected and thus episodes are not influenced by novels. Noah's been in tons and is still looking peachy for someone who was supposed to die 7 episodes in. --  Seclusion  talk / contribs 07:39, 15 January 2008 (EST)
      • Plus, it's very unusual to make somebody a series regular, and then kill them after only five episodes. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 08:45, 15 January 2008 (EST)

Sizzlin'

It's nice to read another novel that sizzles with electrifying hotness. :) Also, I liked how Elle introduced herself like Sarah Corvus of Bionic Woman. But I still find it odd that Elle has no partner and that the show and the graphic novels have never explained why she doesn't have one.--MiamiVolts (talk) 09:46, 15 January 2008 (EST)

• My only explanations for this are that are that she is Bob's daughter (she might get some special treatment), or there simply wasn't a partner available to work with her, and so when Mohinder came in, she was teamed up with him. --DocM 10:49, 15 January 2008 (EST)
  • No, Elle wasn't Mohinder's partner, Niki was. Though having her team with Mohinder wouldn't have been a bad idea, imho.--MiamiVolts (talk) 11:01, 15 January 2008 (EST)

Timeline

This novel is rather recent since it occurs in 2008, but is there any mention of a month? I think it's probably in Spring '08, but I didn't notice any further timeline clues. Did anyone else?--MiamiVolts (talk) 10:01, 15 January 2008 (EST)

• Considering that the timeline is so behind real time already, I'd say it'd be out of place if the novel took place in spring if 2008. If it took place in spring of 2008 it would take place around the same time as Quarantine (albeit in a different timeline). -- Lulu (talk) 10:16, 15 January 2008 (EST)
  • The talent show banner says '2008'. The question is, though, was the talent show held in Spring or Fall '08? I think it's probably spring to correspond to real time and Quarantine, but the novel doesn't say as far as I can tell.--MiamiVolts (talk) 10:21, 15 January 2008 (EST)
    • Oh, I missed that. It rare of a Graphic novel to be ahead of us, timeline wise. I would guess that it's spring, only because I've never heard of a talent show in fall. However, that's assuming. I guess it would be best to say "Sometime in 2008." -- Lulu (talk) 10:29, 15 January 2008 (EST)
      • Right, it's rare, but it does happen that we get to see a graphic novel in the future. Hopefully, if the novel is continued as the 'to be continued...' suggests, we'll get another clue as to what month it is. We do know that it's Matt Neuenberg's birthday...--MiamiVolts (talk) 10:45, 15 January 2008 (EST)
