[Hero]

They've had some other articles mentioning HEROES, but I guess they finally thought the show was noteworthy enough to write an article about HEROES (the previous link is to the print version, which sometimes stays valid longer, just in case the newspaper uses a "subscribe to read the archives" deal for the original article)... I've read this quote that's in the article before, but it's still humorous:

On a more prosaic level, Loeb and other comic-book veterans working on Heroes can tell comic neophyte Kring when an idea veers into another book or movie.

"At one point, (Tim) said there should be a guy who could pick up a car and throw it in the air, using his magnetic power," Loeb says. "I said, 'Tim, that's Magneto (of the X-Men).' He turned to me and said, 'Is that a person or a power?' "

Technically, a magneto is a "thing", but we'll forgive him this little faux pas.
