I did not see anyone post a new thread on this topic, so I decided to take the initiative.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS Graphic Novel! Everything from its subtle details to the lead in for this season's first episode.
A few points:
1. We now know a second person with the ability to "phase" is present: "The Moroccan.
2. Finally, we see someone with the ability to create duplicates of himself.
3. (more a question: Daphne can travel so fast that she is almost manipulating time?)
Any thoughts on the Graphic Novel? |

Thanks for starting the thread. I was about to do it tonight.
Excellent GN although, I think the fast human was originally supposed to be a male.
I wonder what she is going to do with Hiro's father? |

She's going to steal whatever document from Hiro just as he glances at it. This is in the preview for Season 3 episode 1.
My question is this, and I may put this in the Spoiler Thread as a theory. This girl will be SO FAST that Peter won't be able to absorb her ability as long as she is constantly on the move. Speaking of that I wonder if Peter or Sylar would even be able to use their Telekinesis on her to try and slow her down. |

Sylar may have mastered some ability we have yet to comprehend. It's possible he could have a better chance to perhaps counter Daphnes "Blessed Acceleration". (Sudden Random Thought: Imagine what Daphne's power could evolve into!)
Remember when it "appeared" as though Sylar was able to foil Hiro's first attempt at killing him although time had been stopped? I know there are various theories out there: Some who believe Hiro simply lost his concentration. Others who believe Sylar was somehow able to "break" Hiros hold and/or concentration. Nonetheless, Sylar appeared to be the only one capable of breaking Hiro's "time freeze". (Other than Peter who also has the ability.) I think this may lead into an interesting development..... and potentially a counter to Daphne's ability. There has to be someone or something out there that can counter it.....
Another Sudden Random Thought: We haven't seen anyone who can generate force fields yet. I think this would be an extremely POWERFUL ability. Especially if one could progress to varying degrees of "force field densities and sizes"..... That would be a counter to Daphne.... "Allow her to enter one side of the tthickened gelatinous like field widening the distance to slowy bring her to a stop and then BAM, freeze her in a different containment. OK, SORRY PEOPLE, I'M SERIOUSLY GEEKING OUT ON ALL THIS. |

I think you're right about finding the yang to her yin; but I believe I read something that said Hiro will be able to slow her down to normal speed with his time manipulation. Maybe she is a time manipulator too she just hasn't manifested it the same way Hiro did.
Back to the balance of things, there will always be someone to balance the power. I mean if Parkman can find her in a general area, he can cripple her mind for a few minutes while they can catch her. Plus there's a good chance she's already been 'tagged' but we just don't it yet. If that's the case then i'm sure there is some form of defense to her power.
I saw the first ten minutes of the first show this season and it did nothing but make me even more exciting. We're in for a hell of a season guys and gals. |

It does indeed look that way. Tension between Noah and Claire, the apparent reapperance of Future Peter, Angela getting cryptic as usual. Those previews have got me stoked! (I try to let previews be the only spoilers I let in, other than the GN's, so if I seem a little behind the times, blame that.) |

I don't blame you on the spoilers! I've been participating in the Spoiler thread for sometime and I don't think they've done anything but "add to my excitement". For me, they just simply lead to more and more questions!
Trust me, you'll be stoked for this season, that's for sure. |
