"Six months ago I was a cop in L.A. Married, expecting a child, then all of a sudden this stuff started happening. Turned everything upside down. I'm just looking for answers"
This top 8x10 of policeman Matt Parkman in Heroes has been signed by Greg Grunberg, the actor who plays him in the smash-hit series. Matt is a police officer, who works for the LAPD and NYPD in Seasons One and Two respectively. He is a telepath; his ability allows him to read minds, and eventually extends into aspects of mind control. His ability attains to controlling all functions of the mind. His powers first manifest themselves when he hears the thoughts of Molly Walker, a girl who was hiding from a serial killer named Sylar - following her thoughts to find her. Not able to explain how he knew where Molly was hiding, Matt is arrested.
Unlike either The Fantastic Four or the X-Men trilogy, the Marvel Comics-inspired feature films that Heroes most pointedly evokes, there are no capes, masks, or any of the other standard superhero accoutrements in Kring's series about ordinary people discovering their "special abilities." In fact, only two of the series' heroes actually wear uniforms per se: telepathic Los Angeles cop Matt Parkman and spontaneously healing Texas high school cheerleader Claire Bennet. Yet while Kring takes great pains to ground the series in the trappings of messy, everyday reality and family dynamics to broaden its appeal, Heroes nevertheless unfolds in a world of sinister, top-secret organizations, Byzantine conspiracies, and perhaps the most unlikely group of saviors ever assembled to prevent nuclear Armageddon.
Take pudgy, Japanese office drone/comic book geek Hiro Nakamura, who discovers that he can alter the space-time continuum. Or Vegas internet stripper/single mom Nikki Sanders, whose lethal alter ego, Jessica, can rip people in half. Tortured artist Isaac Mendez can foresee the future, albeit only when he's high on heroin. And then there's the brothers Petrelli of Manhattan. Whereas Peter, a hospice nurse who absorbs others' powers, is struggling to find his destiny, his older brother Nathan is the archetypal Alpha Dog, an ambitious, ruthless politician with his eye on the White House who can literally fly. Over the course of Heroes' 27 episodes, these strangers will gradually come together, due to the tireless efforts of geneticist Mohinder Suresh whose late father first identified them—and their chief nemesis Sylar, a mutant serial killer they must stop to prevent New York's destruction.
