About

Graphic Novel:Under the Bridge, Part 1

Outside the city, on Interstate 51, a prison transport bus is destroyed after Perrin Crocker manifests his ability inside it.

Later, at Memphis General Hospital, Donald Essex asks when he can be discharged. A nurse tells him that he will have to wait a while, and that some people from the government are here to see him. Nathan Petrelli walks in, and asks to talk with Donald.

Graphic Novel:Under the Bridge, Part 2

In the Memphis General Hospital, Donald Essex reviews a sheet of paper. Donald tells Nathan that he doesn't know how he survived the bus crash without a scratch on him, but Nathan knows that someone on the bus had abilities that killed everyone except for Donald. Nathan asks Donald to join a task force he has created to take down these evolved humans, but Donald says that he is not interested. Nathan tells Donald to sleep on it and he'll be back in the morning.

Donald returns to his hotel room, planning to leave the place as soon as possible. He asks himself what he has gotten into, and further scorns himself for talking to himself. Donald then relives the scene on the bus, where Perrin Crocker had sprouted spikes. He recounts using his own special ability to nullify Perrin's spikes by transmuting his own chest into water. Donald imagines what would've happened if he had told Nathan that he himself had an ability.

Just then, Nathan's bodyguards break into the room, telling Donald to get down on the floor. They say that they found Donald's DNA in the saltwater of the bus crash scene, and knows that Donald is a posthuman. Donald, however, attacks the bodyguards, spraying a massive torrent of water at them. An agent sprays a substance in Donald's face, which subdues him and renders him unconscious. As he starts to faint, Donald's body begins dissolving into a watery puddle.

Nathan walks into Donald's hotel room and asks what happened. He asks if Donald is dead. The agent says that it is hard to tell, and Nathan says to wrap it up and head back to New York. When the agent asks what to do with Donald's watery remains, Nathan says to pour it away into the Mississippi River.
