Heroes salta sobre o ser aquático com dentes afiados

Talvez seja exagero falar em pular o tubarão, mas a picaretagem é gritante: Tim Kring COPIA um plot point de Watchmen na cara dura:

[quote]Linderman goes on to explain that he, too, has powers, which came with an audible reaction from the audience. [pfff...alguém se surpreende ainda com outros personagens tendo poderes nessa série?] He’d become aware of them years earlier, and banded together with others like him “to make a difference to the world.” But some of his comrades in arms lost their way. “Greed set in, and we split apart. And all the good we’d done, well, it amounted to nothing,” Linderman says.

Then Linderman drops a bombshell, literally and figuratively: the explosion is to be the catalyst for a better future. When Nathan wonders out aloud about the cost in lives, Linderman counters, “There’s six and a half billion people on the planet, that’s less than .07%. Come on, that’s an acceptable loss by anyone’s count.”[/quote]

Basicamente, é o plano do Ozymandias. Não é como se o resto da série fosse original, mas agora eles saíram do território da homenagem e da inspiração para o reino do puro plágio. Difícil levar a sério.
