“Don’t fuck with me!” screams Buck. She throws her sword at Joe and takes it to him with the claws.

This isn’t saying much, but this was one of the best episodes in a while*. The Sylar origin was interesting and actually not what I expected. The Nickie stuff was tolerable and Mohinder only got like 30 seconds of screentime. But man, this show is just dumb sometimes:

Parkman continuously fails the detective test because he’s dyslexic? Ok. Wait, what? I guess in 11 years of police work he never had to write any reports … or take any statements … or read any handbooks … or take any tests in the police academy?? I’m not saying dyslexia wouldn’t be a problem for him, but how did he get this far? And even if it is plausible, isn’t there some kind of training that can help the situation? Famous dyslexic, Theo Huxtable, grew up to be a school teacher.

I guess he was fudging the reading parts too.

The Hiro piece was silly. Writing time travel stuff can get pretty tricky, I understand that. It’s a plot device that can have an awesome payoff but it comes fully-loaded with continuity pitfalls. A brotha’s got to plan ahead. 10 episodes in and Heroes already fucked up. The girl has the Japanese translation book, but she doesn’t remember Hiro? That’s some sloppy work. And how about those oragami swans? Hiro can freeze time for a few weeks now I guess?

Oh and of course they fall in love…shocker!

*Last week’s was decent, the other cheerleaders death was surprisingly gory and surprisingly surprising, but the showdown between Peter and Sylar was weeeeaaak.

… I don’t know what’s with this piece of shit blogger lately, but almost every time I try to post an image it errors out like this. They’ve been pushing this new version that’s still in Beta, and I haven’t switched over, so maybe that’s causing problems…WHATEVER.

I’ll try to fix it tomorrow.

FIXED

Joe’s waiting for Ralph and C to wake up, so he takes a drink and decides to deal with his stalker.

Ralph goes on the offensive. Joe dodges. Ralph passes out.

This should have gone up yesterday.

Ruroni Joe was following the drunken duo (although he’s somewhow in front of them now; we’ll ignore that). Joe asks Ralph where McFly is. Ralph doesn’t remember because he’s drunk. Joe thinks he’s lying and they square off for a fight.

A little late, as usual, my chiki-wickis, but the new comic is up.

Out of the 7 character images on the page, the tiny little Eugene in panel 3 took the most redraws. Go figure.

Things get physical, head-butts are distributed, Ralph and C make their exit, somebody is following them.
