A painting of Claire Bennet sold for over $8000.00 last month - yes, that's EIGHT THOUSAND plus dollars!

It was sold through an NBC Universal auction and bidding appears to have started at $100.00.

The winning bid was $8 365.00 by a bidder called "britishcitizen"

At one point, a bidder named 'hrg' bid one thousand dollars, then $3500.00 later on, too, but 'britishcitizen' waited until bidding was up over $6000 and then got into the game!

You can take a look at how the bidding went - and also check out which picture of Claire Bennet sold through the auction:

That's a lot for a Heroes picture, but I'm sure britishcitizen is happy with his purchase. He's got a one of a kind painting of Claire Bennet now!

I'm still pondering over what's happening in Season Two...

Though I DO like the changes that I've seen Kring and Crew apply to the show in the past two weeks, I'll reserve judgment on the show, as a whole until later this week.

Truthfully...I missed the first half of the last show *hanging head low* Yes, it's true. The Canadian Heroes FANATIC, Teeray (me) actually MISSED part of a show...

I will catch up on viewing the most recent episode and then comment on it by the weekend.

What I did see...FREAKED ME OUT!

What the freakin' H--- was MAYA doing with SYLAR?

Again, for a SECOND WEEK in a row...I am in denial...

I did NOT see Maya smooching Sylar...

No, no, no...that just did NOT happen...I closed my eyes and that vision went away!

:)

It exists only as a scant remnant of my imagination now...I am going to close my eyes during that portion of the show once I locate the best online viewing source for Heroes this week!

One part that I DO REMEMBER from the show and will verify, along with a 'thumbsup'.....

*cheering* YAY, Claire! Way to tell that freaky, disturbed Elle right off, my fine cheerleader friend! I really LIKED WHAT I SAW.....Claire has really got some 'umph' going for her at this point.

Way to be assertive, Claire!

*thumbsup*

I'm in SERIOUS denial after watching tonight's Heroes episode.

I'm okay with Matt being able to project thoughts to others.

I'm okay with Angela's rant about being OLD...

What I am NOT okay with - and what I'm in serious denial about is...

I DID NOT see a bullet hit the lens on a pair of horn rimmed glasses.

Nope - I'm not going to say I saw that! No Way!

Comic Art T-Shirt, "I Did It!" - From NBC Universal


(Opens in New Window)

I realize that Season Two is well under way and we're heading into episode #4 tomorrow night already, but many people are just tuning in who missed last season. Some people are a little confused as to the characters (there are so many!).

Here's something that might help. I've created some lenses all about the Heroes characters and many complimentary lenses about the actors/actresses who play Heroes roles on the NBC TV show:

Heroes Character: Actor/Actress:

Hiro Nakamura Played By Masi Oka

Ando (Masahashi) Played By James Kyson Lee

Isaac Mendez Played By Santiago Cabrera

Claire Bennet Played By Hayden Panettiere

Mr. Bennet Played By Under Construction - HRG Horn Rimmed Glasses

Peter Petrelli Played By Milo Ventimiglia

Nathan Petrelli Played By Under Construction Vote Petrelli !!!

Sylar Played By Zachary Quinto

The Haitian Played By Jimmy Jean-Louis

Niki Sanders Played By Ali Larter

Micah Sanders Played By Noah Gray-Cabey

D.L. Hawkins Played By Leonard Roberts

Matt Parkman Played By Greg Grunberg

Mohinder Suresh Played By Sendhil Ramamurthy

Admittedly, this list is incomplete, but I hope it will be helpful. I will continue to update over the next week. I have about 6 more lenses 'almost' finished.

Check back soon - I'll post the lenses as quickly as I am able

I was just browsing around after last night's episode, and I found this awesome Fan Art from "Ratscape"

Heroes Character Fan Art by Ratscape via Heroes The Series
(opens in new window)

* Note - scroll down the page a bit to view the artworks by Ratscape. The page sort of looks like there's nothing on it (the left-hand sidebar is really full) - but there is - just scroll.

Currently, there are pieces depicting:

* "Sylar The Craver"

* "Peter The GodSend"

* "Aerodynamic Nathan"

* "Schizo Niki"

* "Timebender Hiro"

and

* "Indestructible Claire"

I'm sure you'll enjoy the art, if you're a Heroes fan!

I'm sure that many people have noticed little quirks of the Heroes characters, which, in real life, might indicate odd psychological problems.

* Niki = MPD/Multiple Personality Disorder, Alcoholism
* Sylar = OCD/Obssessive Compulsive Disorder
* Claire = Self-Harming Behaviors
* Isaac = Multiple Addictions
* Peter = Self Esteem issues, leading to Self-Sabotage Syndrome
* Nathan = Fear of Intimacy and Relationships, emotional detachment
* Hiro = General Reality Perception issues
* Matt = Self Esteem issues, Self-Fullfilling (low achievement) behaviors
* Mohinder = Self-Esteem issues (2nd Child Syndrome) and unresolved Childhood Trauma surrounding the loss of his sister.

Most exhibit signs and behaviors related to low self-esteem, narcissism, some anti-social quirks and other behaviors that people with Mental Illness or Mental Disorders display.

Does it make you think, "Hmmm"?

I'm sure I will return to this topic often!
