The latest HEROES
Implied spoilers
Peter, you idiot.
The hair styles of 2012/2013 seem unflattering to your average speedster.
Mohinder, you idiot.
The writers really have no idea what to do with female characters except the Victim plot, Unwanted Power plot and the Bitch on Wheels plot. Nice to see that they are staying loyal to standard comic book writing.
Aw, Sylar really does have a heart of gold or at least a heart of a critical mass of californium.
I want more of the old Hiro and Ando, please.

A) Peter has not one but *two* powers that grant immortality. He might not like pain, but he should never, ever be afraid of danger that he has time to think about. And he can stop time to give himself time to think about it.
B) Peter and Hiro can both teleport, stop time, and travel back and forwards in time at will. Meaning, any problem that *can* be solved through one of these devices has already been solved.
There has to be a reason for those powers to *not work* if they're going to ever be at all interesting - either the powers need to fail, or the problem has to be something you can't stop when you've got just about everything in the Beyonder's arsenal to throw at it.
