Heroes 360
NBC announced the Heroes 360 Experience in January 2007, just prior to the airing of Godsend following the first hiatus. Heroes 360 is a multimedia interactive experience comprised of both expanded web content and an alternate reality game.
With the launch of Heroes 360, a great deal of new content became available on NBC.com, including online viewing of episodes with video commentary, "two-screen" Heroes Interactive content during broadcasts, an interactive version of Chandra Suresh's map, and more.
The alternate reality game has players working closely with Hana Gitelman to unlock the secrets of The Company by exploring websites associated with many of the show's characters and institutions, including primatechpaper.com, corinthianlasvegas.com, and activatingevolution.org. Guided by text messages and emails from Hana and posts on her website, players solve puzzles and unlock clues to reveal exclusive content related to the show.
Graphic Novels
In addition to the episdoes each week, NBC releases online graphic novels the following Tuesday. They are usually first-person, and focus on a specific incident in a character's life.
