A little out there but if they ever do make a team of super heroes in later seasons what will they be called:
Like the Avengers and the justice league

Examples: It's clobbering time! Avengers assemble! stuff like that...

thats not the direction this tv show is going. It is about ordinary people with powers that haven't fully developed yet. They probaly won't even run into each other

Something about this TV series seems kind of rising stars/Supreme Powers. A more realistic look at superheroes but if the show is called heroes there is going to have to be elements of heroics in it. Just more realistic like maybe Unbreakable.

Who's to say they won't team up in a second season?
If they do meet up and decide to become a team of heros they probably would come up with matching uniforms (not really costumes) for theirselves. It would look interesting if they worked on fighting back together. This show is suppost to be a drama about people with powers so it doesn't seem like they'll be fighting against some sort of villain.

I can see one or two maybe pairing up, but a whole team would be pretty silly.

i think at least by the end of the first season they will have joined up at least once to stop whatever catastrophe was advertised in the four minute preview.

:o I'm sure the asian time bender will come up with a stereotypical cry like Banzai!

they are going to meet each other
it's an important plot point that's been discussed already
No,just no.No generic superhero team or anything like that.It would ruin this show.I like the way is story is shaping up and from the looks of things so far,this show isn't going to need any super-friends moments anytime soon.

My guess is that if they form a team they will be called the 9th Wonders

How is that thinking outside the box? Isn't that literally what's called in the box thinking?

Heroes!
and their cry will be Heroes Hemorrhage!
Ha! I think once you watch the show you can pick out a few characters that will definitely NOT end up working together with anybody. Also, I think it's save to say that they will not all meet up. It's a shame that we can't think outside of the box and concieve of a superpower show that isn't a superHERO show. Of course, the title "heroes" throws some off, I suppose. The 'no talent slob' becomes upstanding hero bit has been done, but this show isn't that.
The Dreamer, The Artsit and The Girlfriend are already in association, and that means the Flier is connected to them, albeit unwillingly. Peter is the only initially heroic character. And they are going after the cheerleader. It's possible Suresh will find them soon as well, that will make for quite an interesting event. I don't think that Claire is going to be excited about saving the world at that point... perhaps even Suresh won't be, since his issue is the evolutionary science of it all, and not the meaning or reason for the gifts. He doesn't know it's not random yet. I think Hiro may visit them, but he will likely not stick around... especially since he doesn't speak english, and he'll sure as heck have his own ideas on how to prevent a nuclear holocaulst.
I think the Inmate, the Stripper and the Son may have themselves a little get together as well. I don't think they'll enjoy it, but honestly, seeing those three onscreen together would be awesome, as long as it's not contrived.
I think everyone else is on their own. I don't expect to see the Family working together with the Dreamer's Crew. I hope to see Hiro as a powerful being that goes where he wishes, accomplishing his own goals from a higher perspective. It'd be funny if he simply 'wills' himself to be able to speak english. That'd be hot. Kinda like a Martian Manhunter/Phantom Stranger character.

1) Stripper
2) Cheerleader
3)Super Hiro
4)Cop
5)Painter
6)Brother One
7)Brother Two
8)The prison guy we haven't met yet.
9)Taxi driver in the Xavier role?
I think that's all of them. The comic book name makes sense.

Too bad no one will ever understand him. He could have learned English instead of Klingon!
1) Stripper
2) Cheerleader
3)Super Hiro
4)Cop
5)Painter
6)Brother One
7)Brother Two
8)The prison guy we haven't met yet.

I think that's all of them. The comic book name makes sense.
Now THAT is what I call a GREAT guess. I do think, however, based on previews, that their goal will be to NOT be like their comic book counterparts, which nicely reflects the goal of the show to break away from comic book conventions.

Hmm, the Messengers maybe? No, too. . .bland.
How about 'The Crux'? That plural name would kind of explain the current state of their lives and what tests they would have to unite in order to conquer.
Also, 'The Fantan(s)'. (It's a chinese gambling game originally, but I thought about it because each fight or obstacle would be a gamble for the team members.)
Battle Cry? Uh, let's stay away from that kind of thing. . .or stick to the generic wilhelm-screams.
If you insist, "Get 'em", "It's Time", "Take Them", "It's Now or Never", . . .you see how bad this can get?
Battle cries are for the defeated.

Naw, they's not serious enough to wield the Green Mullet-ed One.
