Maybe he can't turn it off which is why he's a bum. Maybe he uses the money to put into vending machines. His power probably makes things he directly touches go invisible. If he touches the ground though, since it's made up of so many different things, it's not all affected perhaps.

I think they're going to have problems with the character if the invisible man can't make himself visible. It makes it tough for everybody other than Peter to interact with him.
Now, it could be that he doesn't know how to make himself visible and they'll have to help him figure that out. That could be cool.

Maybe he doesn't actually become invisible, but there's some kind of psychic field around that him that prevents people from seeing him. That would explain why his clothes are invisible.
One problem with a truly invisible man is that he would be blind because light would pass through his retinas.

Did anyone else notice that when Nikki was slammed against the glass that there seemed to be a an impression left on the glass on the other side? Almost like there was a mirror image of her being slammed on the other side of her.

I may start recording the show so I can fast forward through it from now on.

I think it's still a good show. Speaking of dragging out, Lost is guilty of that. Not that I want to know the answers straight away, but they are dragging that show out big time.

Which is why I stopped watching Lost midway through the first season. I picked up the first two seasons on DVD cheap thinking I would give it a second try, but have yet to watch them.
My biggest irritation with Heroes is also the fact the HD feed is messed up every single week. Either the video is not coming though correctly, the sound has tons of echo or it is out of sync with the video. This doesn't happen with any other NBC show I watch in HD, but happens 90% of the time with Heroes.

I know everyone knows this already but i have to rant aka express myself. This show is such a blatant rip off of X-Men it's not even funny. It's the politically correct version of the X-Men. I wonder if Tim Kring, or whatever his name is, has to pay Stan Lee any royalties. Heroes is the early days of the X-Men before the public found out about the mutants. I can see the creator of this show watching X-Men and saying I know how you could do a Beginning story. It'd work as a TV show. I wonder if i can steal it and get away with it. I don't care what anyone says this show has no orignality in any way, shape or form. It steals an idea and then sets it at the beginnning of the mutants. Whatever. But the level of interest in this show when it's blatant rip off of someone else's idea is disappoointing. But the public never ceases to amaze me at the amount of sh*t they can be swallow and then smile.

Are they going to steal all of the X-Men characters?

With that said, I think that the new hero that will be introduced soon has a pretty cool power that I've never seen before.
Spoiler:
Be as it may, it's not the powers that have kept me interested so far... it's the journey of each person affected.

there's only so many different super powers they can create or use.
was the security guard not paying any attention when DL reached his hand through the glass to hold hands with nikki?

Let's see:
Heroes = Shit that is swallowed by smiling public
Heroes = X-Men
X-Men = Shit that is swallowed by smiling public?
Thats harsh words for X-Men, something it seems that guy likes.
