Notes

Colored media

• On Season Three, Week 10 of CBR's Behind the Eclipse, Heroes writers Aron Coleite and Joe Pokaski confirmed that NBC used "scabs," or Non-WGA writers, to produce content during the 2008 Writers Strike without the consent or oversight of the Heroes creative staff, who were prohibited from exercising any control during the strike. This calls into question the canoncy of GN's published during this period. Suspect GNs are highlighted in the colors pink and red.
  • The canoncy of the GNs in pink is in limbo in my opinion. Their content has yet to be recognized by other media or confirmed canon/not canon by the Heroes creative staff to my satisfaction.
  • GN's in red have been confirmed not canon to my satisfaction by Coleite and Pokaski by their following statement in the afore mentioned issue of Behind the Eclipse:

...So things like the Sanjog arc or “Ben Franklin as a Hero,” that so had nothing to do with us
