Im starting to think that the symbols dont actually have a purpose for the show. Its kinda hard to explain. The best relation i can give is like in the movie the 6th sense. Everytime you see the color red, it means theres something dead nearby. It plays no role in the actual story, but theres meaning behind it, a kind of symbolic meaning i guess. Thats kinda what these symbols are leading me towards. The symbol just means that someone nearby or someone referenced has some kind of evolutionary power. I dont think its going to actually be brought up in the show, and if they are, it'll probably only be to show how they are all connected by this evolutionary force.
some examples of where its been seen:
Matt : In the pool in Ep 2
Hiro : In the comic book of himself
Isaac : The paintings he made
Claire : On her geometry Book
mystery guy in bar : on his necklace in the pic above
All the people on Sylars string board : on their pictures (one of which was nathan)
Peter : in the picture he drew in Ep 2
If this is true, that would mean that mohinder and his father both also have powers (his fathers book and the program)
The only one that we really haven't seen it for yet is Niki (that i can remember anyways)
The reason i started thinking that the symbols don't really have a purpose to the storyline is mainly because of the one on claires book. Theres really no point in it being there. I can find reasons for it being just about everywhere else, but thats the main one thats throwing me.
