Heroes Reborn: "Under the Mask"



The hunt still continues but there are surprises all around this week's episode.

We pick up to were we left off with Miko, where she comes back to reality and fighting  against a group of security guards. Then comes Harris Prime who happens to be a hero and a very bad one too. He gets to talk to Miko and kill her but she slices his arm off. The freaky part was that his cut off arm regenerated into another Harris.

Molly Walker, the one that Noah is trying to find, is captured by a group that's run by Erica Kravid with a project called "EPIC." It's design like the Google Glasses and help find the Evos that are hiding and using Walker's powers will help with that.

Apparently Noah's lost of memory is serious than we could have thought. When he takes Quentin to the hospital, he meets up with a doctor who calls on security. He sneaks into the security office and sees old footage of himself at the hospital that he doesn't remember. There was footage of him looking at Claire's dead body. But there were moments in the footage that was lost and the only person he knows that could help is Hiro.

I can't say how much Zachery Levi's performance on this show has been outstanding. But as his character tries hunting down Evos with his wife. He might have a secret of his own when he heats up his steak as he was cutting it and then starts to look like some nuclear man that's blows up.

Also I don't want to leave out that Carlos got his ass kicked when he hunts for the man that killed his brother. But he dresses up as the mask hero that people want killed, but the shocking moment came when Carlos was taking down the cop but the cop turned out to be a Evo with super strengthen powers. Think of Bane vs. Batman. It was that kind of feeling.

This episode wasn't a mess but very good. It might jump from one story to another but these are the pieces that lead up to one big story which is how will these heroes come and help save the world. Will Noah help Molly and escape from project EPIC. How does Luke confront his new ability now that he seems to be an Evo now?

Overall, I give this episode a 7/10. It was good. Keep on pace and some really good character development stories with Noah, Luke and even the beginning of what EPIC is and doing.

Here's a promo link to next week's episode.
