Heroes Monday
The real hero is always a hero by mistake; he dreams of being an honest coward like everybody else. Umberto Eco (1932 – ), Travels in Hyperreality
Save the Cheerleader…Save the World was (and for some of us still is) the original mantra for Heroes and the indestructible Claire is the cheerleader that they speak of. Her superpower ability is her indestructibility and she is one character who has struggled with a lot of emotional upheaval in the last season. She found out who her real parents are – both of whom have superpowers thereby giving meaning to the saying – the apple does not fall far from the tree – but discovered her true love and loyalty lies with her adopted parents especially her father whom we learn will go through the fire and back for her
