What the heck... season finales in April? I'm a person who likes consistency, but TV networks have started adopting inconsistency with their shows.

I think they figured out that the idea of a 'non stop' season with few interruptions is what viewers like.

If Matt and Hiro dies. I refuse to watch Heroes anymore.

Matt for sure.

Hiro is kind of pointless now, and annoying. He and Ando have been fighting about the same crap since the beginning.

How logical is it that Ando told him about destiny for two seasons and now he doesn't believe it himself.

You know, after rewatching the plane crash segment from last nights episode I've realized something. While Peter may now have to have physical contact to absorb an ability now (which would be ok with me as I said earlier) I don't think he is limited to one single ability at a time.

Others have said when he absorbed Tracy's power he became weak when the guard was whaling on him etc. This is true but I don't think it was because he lost the strength ability. I think it was because he had just absorbed another power and was disoriented or "out of it" for a second as he absorbed it. We will probably won't know for sure until it's explained down the road (if it's ever explained that is) but I'm pretty sure he still has his base ability which is absorbtion, and while he may be able to only USE one power at a time, he still has them all in there someplace like Sylar.

I really miss mica's character and his cousins! they should be put back in! they really added a contrast (not talking racial fyi) to the story line, i felt their characters where quite unique and interesting, espcially compared to some of the regular cast. Plus for child actors they definitely truimp some of the adult actors abilities, in my humble opinion of course.

i keep tuning in hoping the show will get better, but the unless the show gets new writers, it won't. can someone actually explain what happened in the plot of volume 3, i cant figure out how they went from peter getting shot to killing his dad as a solution to the problem. these characters have no consistency in actions or motives. they might as well have a new set of characters from episode to episode. and hayden needs acting lessons.

i'll admit that i loved the cinematography for the premiere, but really wished this orange jumpsuit black bag look was on tv last year, when it was more relevant.

Full Summary of Behind the Eclipse 12

1) Ando's "supercharging" ability was based on character being a sidekick. So he gets the ultimate sidekick super power. However, there might be more to his ability as seen in the flash forward.

2) Arthur learned of Angela's plans to embrace Sylar via his telepathy while in a coma.

3) We will learn much more about Sylar this volume

4) Claude will not appear in Volume 4

5) The future of Five Years Gone is definitely beginning to happen but with out the explosion

6)In response to a question about Peter/Sylar taking Ando's supercharging ability and if they could charge themselves, the writers replied that they might have to try that out.

7) No more Echo and perhaps not even in the DVD set

8) Ando and Hiro's relationship will change "drastically" because of his new found ability (I think they were getting at the fact Ando will the one helping Hiro now as seen in the promo pics)

9) DVD Extras will have some BTS moments of Mohinder and the sticky webs

10) One more for the DVD: There was a deleted scene between Molly and Arthur, where Arthur uses Molly to find out where Hiro and Claire went to in the past in order to take the catalyst away from Hiro

11) "Sylar has to concentrate to gain the power through empathy."

12) Ando's powers only enhance those with abilities (BTW they are amazed by all the Ando questions)

13) It is possible that both Meredith and Flint survived the Pinehearst explosion

14) While replying to a question about who is Baby Noah's mother, they confirmed that they just finish writing Episode 3x25 and then said they would not confirm either way. (I assume this means we will learn in Episode 3x25 possibly)

15) There was a plan to introduce other Level 5 Escapees in some online content but it never happened. They still might be introduced in the future

16) Claude stayed in NY and did not return to London, because he had a sense of "destiny"

17) They end with their traditional joke questions about Mr Muggles and confirm a girlfriend for Mr. Muggles next season.

I dont get the echo thing?

Echo was a character from the webseries "Going Postal" he had the power of manipulating sound and amongst the heroes community he was loved but at the end of the Volume 3 you see him with his throat cut in level 5 and there was no explanation how he got into that mess...of course we know sylar did him but still fans wanted an ending for him.

    • Millions of users to benefit from Windows 11's new performance boost on Adobe Photoshop

      Millions of users to benefit from Windows 11's new performance boost on Adobe Photoshop by Sayan Sen Despite the advent of AI-generated imagery, Adobe's Photoshop remains one of the most popular tools on this planet. Adobe does not have a publicly reported total user count but it's probably not wrong to assume there are millions. As of 2025, Adobe Creative Cloud has had approximately 41 million paid subscribers, many of whom likely use Photoshop. In addition, more than 166,000 companies worldwide are apparently also using the app. These figures are according to a very recent report by SQ Magazine. Out of them, it is fair to assume that many are probably running Windows. As such, there is good news for these users as Microsoft has announced Photoshop is getting a big 20% performance boost on x86-64 (AMD64) systems and a 13% bump-up on Arm devices. This is definitely great news for them as many have complained about the slow performance and general sluggishness of Photoshop on Windows 11 ever since the advent of the latter back in 2021. If you are wondering how Microsoft managed to do this, the answer lies in a combination of compiler-level optimizations and a technology called Sample Profile Guided Optimization (SPGO). According to Microsoft, Adobe worked closely with the company’s Visual C++ team and adopted the latest MSVC toolchain enhancements together with SPGO to squeeze more performance out of Photoshop’s CPU-bound workloads. Unlike traditional Profile Guided Optimization (PGO), which requires developers to create special instrumented builds and run lengthy training workloads, SPGO gathers performance data directly from optimized release binaries. This means Adobe could collect real-world usage information which gives a major advantage to this technique, as companies could leverage data collected from actual customer workloads rather than only relying on synthetic benchmark runs. In theory, this should allow optimizations to better reflect how users interact with software in the real world. Thanks to this, there are improvements to code layout, function inlining, hot-and-cold code separation, and other low-level tweaks that help processors execute instructions more efficiently. Essentially the compiler is better able to identify “hot” code paths, those which are most frequently executed, and optimize them accordingly.

      Glad these prices are starting to come down, but that is still crazy. I bought the 2TB 9100 Pro (slightly more expensive version with PCIe 5.0) last year for $240.

      The 2TB Samsung 990 PRO NVMe SSD hits lowest price in over three months by Sayan Sen Yesterday, we covered a really good deal wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe PCIe Gen4 SSD for a low price of just $400 with a special discount coupon. That's just $100 per TB, making it a very good offer during these hard times. The deal is still live, so you can check it out in its dedicated article here if you do not want to miss out. Meanwhile, if you don't have that kind of budget but still wish to buy an SSD for a good price, the 2TB variant of the TeamGroup SSD at $280 its lowest price in over three months. Meanwhile, those seeking 2TB but faster performance can check out Samsung's 990 PRO, which has hit the lowest price also in the last quarter or so, as it's on sale for $370 (purchase links under the specs table down below). Thus, you want a faster drive, get the 990 Pro, or you want more capacity, grab the TeamGroup 4TB linked in the first para. The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $500. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more. The tech specs are given below: Specification TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 2TB Samsung 990 PRO 2TB Interface PCIe 4.0 x4, NVMe 1.4 PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 Form Factor M.2 2280 M.2 2280 Controller InnoGrit Controller Samsung In-house Controller NAND Flash 3D TLC 3D TLC DRAM Cache None (HMB supported) 2GB LPDDR4 Sequential Read (Max) 5,000 MB/s 7,450 MB/s Sequential Write (Max) 4,500 MB/s 6,900 MB/s Random Read (4K) Up to 600,000 IOPS Up to 1,400,000 IOPS Random Write (4K) Up to 700,000 IOPS Up to 1,550,000 IOPS TBW (Endurance) 1,300 TBW 1,200 TBW MTBF 3,000,000 hours 1,500,000 hours Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C 0°C to 70°C Storage Temperature -40°C to 85°C -40°C to 85°C Shock Resistance 1,500G / 0.5ms 1,500G / 0.5ms Heatsink Patented Graphene Heat Spreader No Get them at the links below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM): $369.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) TEAMGROUP T-Force G50 2TB SSD (TM8FFE002T0C129): $279.99 (Sold by TeamGroup, Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
