Ok, so I went to the Jules Verne Festival for Heroes: The Event in LA and. Dude. Dude. They showed footage from the third volume, "Villains." DO NOT peek behind the cut unless you want to be spoiled!

SYLAR, and lots of him. It's hard to describe exactly what we were shown--most of it must have been a dream sequence or future-jump scenario because everyone was dead. The bodies of the main cast were littered around what looked like a trashed Company prison. I can only remember Claire (dressed as a cheerleader) and Matt's bodies clearly, but it was pretty grotesque (yay! Not a lot of that this season).

Apparently there will be the equivalent of "Seven Twelve Sylars running around." It sounds like seven twelve killers with abilities, locked up by The Company, have escaped. The only one prominently featured was a lithe black man who seemed to have preternatural speed--and used that to rip a cop's heart out of his chest (or did something with it that killed the guy because he was very much dead afterwards). If I remember correctly all the other killers were just shadows in the asylum's hallway. IMO it looks like Sylar may be the one to break these people out, since he is seen killing at least three people for their abilities... but perhaps he does so unintentionally, who knows. The "Seven Twelve Sylars" line is directly from the trailer and I don't think he'd invite that kind of competition. He probably breaks into the Company building wanting revenge and discovers they have a bunch of special people locked up... hey, buffet!

It appears Sylar is caught by the Company again (he was tied down with a tube going into his nose). He's seen verbally toying with Elle while he's laying on a table as well as when he's upright and dressed normally, though the context was all over the place so who knows which comes first. They have a confrontation. The way it was edited implied--to me, at least--that he kills her, but that could have been within the context of the dream sequence/time-jump. Probably so.

The BEST part was a a shot of Angela Petrelli in the asylum... and then hands coming up around her shoulders. The person behind her steps forward, and it's Sylar. Some of the other peeps in my party were taking that as confirmation that she's Teh Ev0l, but I figure that could just as well be her last minutes alive. There was an awful lot of her in the trailer too, actually, but she didn't look pleased by what was going on.

It's hard to describe it all and I know I'm not great at recounting it, but I was SO JAZZED to see this footage. I was shocked, because I wasn't expecting to be so impressed after the lackluster volume two. I CANNOT WAIT NOW. Get this f***ing strike over with so we can make way for the win, plz!

I got so f***ing excited when I saw it! I can't wait!!!

Off topic- The sight hasnt updated the online novels in 2 weeks, there a bit behind

But still no information about the petrelli boys and niki .. d***

OMG that looks SO goood !

isit me or does Ando have a power when he sorta levitates ? ?
and ms.petrelli and sylar they both lookedreally calm and like they had something going on maybe they are working together and she helped him when he was shot as she is kinda "the company" but i hope elle doesn't die ! it all look SO confusingg but so glad sylars in more of it this time and a faster pace !
i do hope something happens to peter this time with the virsus becose obv no one can really compete aganist him and it takes away the drama of the show ! well i think

and the black guy who kills the cop ? new character seems like he has stabbed his hand through the person when he lifts the hand up ! and seems to get in ms.petrellis car?!?
and matt is he dead!?! on the chair !!!

and the second teaser ms.petrelli with sylar they come to a hault and those shadows some looks like women say something?! anyone know what?

and who is derek?

cant WAIT for volume 3 and i live in england lool x

I'm not sure if this is too far fetched or anything but it would it seem possible that Sylar could make 712 copies of himself. There was a comic where there was one guy who could duplicate himself and that would be a reasonable excuse for him to live forever since he keeps regenerating his cells. That would explain the purpose of that comic as well as the equivalent of seven twelve Sylars running around. That's also an explanation as to why Derek may be alive and why he claims that he can't be hurt.
