I think she just immediately learns and becomes an instant expert at what she sees. i would think it's limited to the one move instead of an entire discipline.

I hope she learns a wide range of styles, just like Taskmaster.
Especially in his mini, where he watched a tape on fast forward. He could mimic that style exactly, but it did damage his body in the process.

I think the coolest thing they could do would be to have Sylar find some mail with the address in the glove compartment and then go to Claire's house to apologize, then Maja y Alejandro end up protecting Sylar from HRG... that'd be awesome.

Apologize? He's evil.

 

[Sebastos]

I just had a thought and forgive me if it's been brought up before(especially after the whiney *****-fest this thread has been for the past couple of pages); but is there a possibility than West could be a plant of HRG's?

But wouldn't HRG already know that West is with Claire then?

Man do I wish that they'd release a trade for that. I was only able to find the last two issues.

The fight I would love to see is Peter well trained & knows how to use all of his powers VS Batman. Batman would get pwned.

It would all be over pretty quick... that's like a normal guy going up against someone with god like capabilities!

Same here. Hopefully one day, it'll turn up. I kinda feel the same way about Agent X. The issues in-between that 12 issue series weren't that great, but the beginning and ending? Superb.

I'm liking Spoons idea about West being a plant by HRG. He's testing how well his daughter adjusts to the new life.

 

[Abaddon]

I think it'd be pretty silly for them to drag out the whole West thing, if he was really a plant by HRG.

 

[Son of Sun]

I'm not so convinced that it's going to be Sylar who's going to kill Claire's pops. I'm thinking it might actually be West when he eventually sees him. Maybe he remembers what they did to him and that sends him through the roof. I don't remember the picture that accurately, but did it look like it was Claire on the background kissing someone? Did she look distressed? Maybe West will kill HRG and seek understanding or something from Claire, who's like him and all that. Yeah, I'm not convinced at all that West and HRG know eachothers - the planting thing doesn't just sound right no matter how I try to think about it. HRG seems genuininely worried and even desperate to look after Claire - altough, it might be an act to make Claire realize how important it is to stay hidden, but I'm not holding my breath with that. But West and HRG? Nah.

And I do think that Sylar just walked like he said. Why not? It underlines the fact that he's now apparently powerless and vulnerable - and more hungry for power, if possible.

EDIT: Oh! I didn't realize it was Claire's car! Was it? It'd be pretty awesome way to set stuff in motion. This doesn't change my earlier opinion on who possibly might kill HRG. If anything, it makes me more certain it's not Sylar, since it's what everyone will think when they make it clear (to blind dorks like me) that Sylar has Claire's car.

Same here. It wouldn't make sense.

 

[Blacklight]

I believe that West is the one who killed Kaito. It would make sense since he could easily just have pushed him off and flew away.

 

[Captain_BluTac]

although even flying it would be quite a journey from california to newyork and he doesnt even appear to fly as fast as nathan

 

[Nathan]

I just watched chapter 4 and all I can say is, yay Female Taskmaster!

By "apologize" do you mean "eat her brain"? I dont know what gives you the impression that he somehow wants to redeem himself. He's already killed two people.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, he can't let on that he knows; if West really is a secret plant.

"Oh, and also - if West and Nathan had a race around the world, who would win?"

Nathan. He has the age and experience to fly rings around this newbie – literally.

While the show does support that, you think it'd be the other way around. Nathan may be older than West, but West seems to fly a lot more. We've seen West fly more in 4 episodes than Nathan ever has.

 

[Captain_BluTac]

maybe there powers are similar but slightly different as is every feature pf every human being able to fly could be like saying they have blue eyes cus theres lots of different shades of blue

 

[The Apocalypse]

Quick question. In that painting was Claire and the other person actually kissing cause I was thinking that it was Peter who was hugging Claire and he is the one to kill HRG (if it even gets to that). I'm sure some type of twist is in store. It just seems to obvious that West is the one that is going to kill HRG.

 

[Captain_BluTac]

i think its sum1 sheilding claire from the dead body and im hoping thats not noahs who is dead
