Mister Linderman’s Powers Revealed
What is Mister Linderman’s powers? It was revealed a while back that crime boss Linderman (played by Malcolm McDowell) does indeed possess powers, and TV Guide’s Michael Ausiello, in his daily Ask Ausiello column, has the answer. He was coy about it, answering about Linderman’s powers: “You know what show I miss, Dan? Carnivale. That Ben Hawkins was one fascinating dude. Oh, the things he could do with his mind….” And never having seen the HBO show Carnivale, I jumped on Wikipedia and this is what I found about the character Ben Hawkins and his powers…
Ben was born with a gift, the Christ-like ability to heal.
And so now we know. Mister Linderman has the power to heal!
Although I have to say, I wonder how that helped him get to be a big time crime boss. You’d think someone with his notoriety would have a more, well, scarier power…

You don’t wanna eat what this guy is cooking.
