DIgital Prequel: Dark Matters

[MarkHB]

Five years after the public became aware of the existence of evolved humans - or "EVOs." Said public is not entirely supportive of these EVOs. In fact, few people fall into the middle ground.

 

Said to be available exclusively via the Heroes Reborn app (now available for both iOS and Android); discuss it here!

We'll see how long it's up, but it's on youtube here:

HRG: I'm back-- wait, where is TWOP?

So now powers are public knowledge, but 'Primatech' is still around, hunting powered people? So it's not exactly like the original series, but still enough similarities for me to be annoyed. I did like seeing Micah - and he better not be captured!

Couldn't they come up with a better name than 'Evos' ?  And I thought Abbies was bad on Wayward Pines, Evos isn't much better.

 

Primatech has been rebranded as Renautus, as there were Primatech archive boxes clearly seen inside the building.

 

I agree that it was good seeing Micah grown up (it's the same actor even) -- since he just left at the end of Heroes Season 3 and was never seen again --  but since he did get tasered, I'm thinking he might be in Renautus' hands.

 

We did see HRG as car salesman 'Ted Barnes'.

I just watched it tonight (I had to get an MHL cable for my phone so I could enjoy it in comfort).  It did a decent job of bridging the gap IMHO, and I liked that it started with Claire's leap off the wheel (which was the final shot of the original series) and that so many other Evo's were using her "and this is attempt #..." line that was so iconic in the original show on their own tapes.

 

I also caught that the three files Quentin downloaded were: Coyote Sands (the holding camp from S3), Primatech, and "Walker System."  Spoiler-tagging on the latter:

the Walker System was young Molly Walker, who had the power to locate anyone alive just by thinking about them.  The fact that Clint Eastwood's daughter is playing a "Molly", together with this, makes me think the character might be back after all!

It turns out that "Dark Matters"

, officially uploaded to the Heroes account.  Enjoy!

I watched the whole thing and really liked it, I do like that Quentin is gonna be the one to wake Bennet up to who he really is, instead of his sister or even Micah.  I too, really hope that Molly Walker is back, I can see her ability coming in handy, and it looks like the new Company is more harsh than the one in the past.  Will be interesting to see the new bunch of Specials, and I loved that Micah was such a big part!

And of course this Dark Matters prequel is not captioned.  Figures.

I just watched this and really liked it. Quentin and Phoebe were adorably geeky and I actually am interested in what happens to them. I liked Aly too and hope she'll show up in the series too. It was great to see Micah again, and I hope we'll see him in the series too. I'm very interested in what Mohinder has been up to since the end of Heroes, if they're able to pin a terrorist act on him.

This has me feeling cautiously optimistic about the show- if they can keep new characters interesting (like Quentin and Phoebe) and manage to weave in some of the old characters on occasion (like Micah and Mohinder), this might actually be awesome!

I can't believe I just watched these.  I guess I'm more interested in this show than I thought I was.  Or maybe I'm just extremely bored.  It wasn't too bad.  Too bad the series itself doesn't really reward people who watched the webisodes.
