Yes, you can buy it at the comic store. It's a hardback. It's like $30. It's a collection of the graphic novels online. So much easier to read than on the website.
There are also some Q&A on the back with Tim Sale, iirc. I'll check tonight to see if there is anything more in it. However, I'm excited because I'm looking forward to getting the book signed by Tim Sale and meeting him at the Emerald City Comicon. ^_^
How can you hate Veronica Mars?! Okay, so maybe lightning isn't her thing; she should have super investigative powers, but I guess that would be a little cheesy.
The Japanese is actually quite realistic. One would hope, since Masi Oka is, after all, Japanese. Not sure what's up with the Spanish; if you're making a TV show in California (or just about anywhere in the US) and you can't find a native spanish speaker to do translations, well...you just aren't trying.
I need to get satellite TV or something so I can watch programs in EST. This three-hour delay thing is BS; two hours before a show comes on, the entire Internet has already spoiled the whole thing.
Well there is that. =P I did state that she's whacked out and pretty much bat shit crazy. She did give a brief history of her childhood and to why she's probably like that. Regardless, the character is just another villain type for the heroes, I guess. However, when I think about it, I don't think I really like that many blonde actresses to begin with.
I'm with you guys. The show was starting to feel like it was going nowhere and now it's suddenly back on track...just in time to have only 3 eps left. That's BOOURNS!
After seeing the episode last night I have some guess on what may be going on:
The virus is caused by Sylar taking the black tears of death power from Maya. Now that we know about the power reducing drugs I think it is safe to assume Sylar was being fed them and that he will soon be fully in charge of his powers. Before he killed the original owner of the car they are driving he was hearing a tick-tick-tick sound in his head.
Adam does want to save the world while Bob and the company want to rule the world, privately.
I think Jessica might be in control. Notice the smile she gave to Bob upon entering the facility? I'm not sure if she was thanking him for helping her with her problem or helping her get rid of D.L., it is very possible Jessica wants to be rid of Niki and not the opposite.
Whose side is the Haitian on? He helped Peter escape and we still do not know how he ended up back in Haiti when Suresh treated him.
If Veronica Mars was locked up in the facility for most of her life why was she sent to Ireland to find Peter??? Unless she lied about that.
Why did Nathan lose his position in Congress? We have Senators now who don't even show up for votes. Is it a case of him never being sworn in because of his radiation burns?
The episode did answer a lot of questions but some are still unanswered.

Not possible. Based on the time line, the virus showed up way before Sylar came in contact with Maya. Also, her power kills everyone, including those without powers, and in a very quick time period.

How so? Only thing I recall seeing in season 1, is the news showing he won by a landslide. Was there something else I might have missed to show he didn't win? That was on of the things I wish they answered because like HMTKSteve and myself, I'm sure many others thought he won as well. =/
Yeah. I already figured out Kaito's killer though. Plus, even though I knew what would happen to Bennet I still was shocked. My friends and I disbanded the Mohinder fan club. lol.
This Monday's episodes was pretty awesome as well.
Last night's episode was the best so far. *SPOILER ALERT* To think that it was Adam who was killing everyone! I can't wait for the Hero/Adam showdown. That's gonna' be big. Also I was rather surprised that the dad did end up dying, but I knew they would bring him back somehow. I wasn't expecting it to be Claire's blood to heal him. Does that mean that Claire can bring the dead back to life essentially?
Well, right now, it's not about bringing back the dead but showing the extent of Claire's power in a non-predictable way. Essentially, she and Adam/Takezo have the same power. This leads me to believe that the family line of the Petrelli's and Adam may have something to do with each other.
Mrs. Petrelli didn't know about Adam's powers full extent [his not being able to age] so it's possible he could have something to do with their family line and they would never know.
It's also important to remember that we essentially have three immortals on the cast now. Peter, Adam and Claire cannot die.
I'm not so sure about Peter. Does he have to be alive to use his powers or not?
He "died" once before already, remember? Sylar stuck the big piece of glass in his skull. He was "dead". They pulled the glass out and he was "alive" again. So, no, he doesn't have to be "alive" to use his power.
They pulled the glass out and he was "alive" again. So, no, he doesn't have to be "alive" to use his power.
At that time, he was in the presence of Claire, so his primary power (involuntarily mimicking any power within a short distance) may have been what healed him. Even if that is the case, it functioned while he was "dead."

Don't forget Claude throwing him of that building. Such a fall kills you, so I say Peter died then too, but because he had the regenerative power of Claire he regenerated and climbed off the cab and continued regenerating.
Ah, but in cases where what killed him was still killing him (glass in his head) he did not regenerate until after the killing device was removed.
It wasn't still killing him. The glass was just stuck in his brain, and the regenerative power can't push stuff out of your body (as we saw with Claire having a stick in her head and lying on the autopsy table all cut open when she regained concious x-X painful to look at scene that was), thus his brain didn't regenerate, thus he was dead. And the theory is that the powers come from the brain, so I think Peter's mimic power wasn't active when Claire pulled the glass out of his head. A problem lies in the fact that Peter has to think of the person or be near said person to use and control that power. A lot of these minor problems can be solved if we know exactly in perfect detail everything about all powers, how they work, what is required to use the powers, etc...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the invisible guy, Claude, train Peter how to control his powers? We saw in an episode where Peter was able to use the many different abilities without having to be near the origin of the power? I don't think Peter has to necessarily think of the person to access the power, he has pretty much any power another person has once he was in the vicinity of that person, he just needed to learn how to control those powers.
Why didn't West die? He fell pretty far and doesn't have Claire's regeneration abilities.
I'm a little peeved with this season's habit of bringing back the dead. The writers need to grow some balls.They killed off DL, so it's not like nobody dies.
