9th wonders

(S01E06) What a minute. Did all this stuff actually happen in only one episode? I don't know where to start. Even Isaac, the mopey artist, seems to be charged-up and awake. Maybe he feels a little better now that he's seen Peter manifest paint-the-future powers of his own, and thinks he is not so crazy after all.

Just when you think Horn-Rim Glasses Guy might actually be okay, and that evil is just his day job, he sets up daughter Claire to meet her "bio-parents." I guess there's no good reason to call him Horn Rim and not Mr. Ben net, or even "Claire's dad." But HRGG is more fun, and sounds more mysterious. As he truly does love and worry about Claire, he makes a great complex villain.

I always find it intriguing when a website is created for a show that hasn't even premiered yet. I can see fansites being created for past and present shows, as there is material out there to gather necessary information. However, a fansite for a show that isn't even appearing for two months?

Case in point is Craig Byrne's new site, 9th Wonders, which is dedicated to the new NBC fall series Heroes. Slickly produced (the main page looks like a comic book straight from the 1960's). the site features interviews with the creator and director of the series as well as the actors who will portray the unknowing heroes. Also featured is prop artwork created for the show by comic book artist Tim Sale.

There is also a link to discussion boards where topics range from episode one previews, discussions on spoilers, and panels about superheroes in the media in general. As the premiere days draws ever closer (September 25th at 9:00 PM) I'm sure there will be more information added to the site.
