This is a comprehensive collection of the comics based on the Heroes show. Especially, the Tim Sale paintings that appeared on the show, they are included here. However, the comics themselves are a mix bag. There are a few gems, though among these stories that explored the characters that did not make it to the show.
Honestly though, I would have wanted some of the main characters of the show to appear more like Hiro or Peter, but at least I have my DVDs for that.
This collection though was shoddily put together. The binding fell apart before I could finish reading it. At least, I bought it on clearance. Still, it would be a pain should I reread this in the future.

I haven't read all of it but I don't think I will. Not because of the quality of the stories but due to the quality of the binding. It has just started falling apart as I read it.

Completed all of the comics associated with the show Heroes. Definitely cool and an added dimension to the lore.
