Oh man. I have. Isn't it a Canadian show? It's horrible! The acting is bad, the storylines are bad, the powers are lame. A feral woman? I can introduce you to a dozen or more feral women, but none of them have superpowers

Heroes is a copy of comic books out there in a whole, not just xmen, not just anything. I see a ton of feelings from almost every comic book I've read. I'ts not as in depth or dark as something like Powers, nor does it have the fancy characters like X-Men.
Remember, Jeph Loeb was one of the main writers on the series, I don't know if he wrote it throughout, but he's most well-known for Batman: Hush, and a league of other comics. I don't think it's possible to be very "original" with comics while also being accessible to the public that would watchit and keep it on the air. Being a huge x-men fan, I think it's crazy not to watch it for fear of it being a ripoff. Don't watch it because you don't like the medium, but not because you think it's a rip off!

I wouldn't compare a TV show with comics.
There's alot more to comic books than a mishmash of super-powered characters in colorful spandex. The comic medium has become decades-old literature that holds a deeper essence while something like Heroes cannot compare to it on a metaphysical level. If Heroes seems like a comic ripoff, it's because you can only invent so many 'original' superpowers (ie, Flying, Invisibility, Healing, Superstrength, Telepathy, etc) where an audience can easily relate to. These are some of the most common superpowers that have been created and thought about by the average person wishing they had some sort of supernatural gift. Most people wish they could fly rather than control the Earth's magnetic field or absorb kinetic energy. Last edited by Moogled; 05-24-2007 at 03:24 AM.
