Heroes, it is better then reading the Return

Heroes. It had been all over TV for a while now and I have to admit that I tried my best to avoid most of the hoopla. I mean come on basically a comic on tv these things always suck. Well I just finished watching the first six episodes and DAMN! The whole thing was actually pretty good. To the point where every cliff hanger ending left me needing to watch the next one, just like a good comic. Not only that the story itself reminds me of Warren Ellis' New Universal, except a little less, well a little less like Warren Ellis was writing it. Which in itself isn't necessarily a bad thing. It is just a little less out there and violent. Although I will admit all the scenes with wolverine as a cheerleader made me cringe. You know that whole healing factor thing is lot more gross then it seems on paper. anyway since I know that you have all been waiting for me to pass judgment before letting yourself watch it, I will. It is good, go fucking watch it. Maybe if enough people do we will see more interesting takes on the super hero genre on mainstream tv.
