Arthur's Power

Started by Captain REX5 pages

Yeah, I'll chalk it up to that, Celestial. I hope at some point they try to release a comprehensive guide to all the rules on the show, as far as powers go...

As for Arthur, Mr. Petrelli featured in a webcomic with a young Linderman. He did not use any powers and thought that Linderman was a freak when he used his healing power. But I am guessing he just had not triggered them yet.

because the heroes writers had not thought it through.

in reality yeah, but we're talking about in the story.

I wonder if Arthur can give abilities that he's taken back...

There's a problem with this. If his cells are dying and regenerating in equilibrium, then him getting shot, blown up, etc would also break the cycle, therefore he shouldn't be able to heal at all. His accelerated healing is being cancelled out by accelerated dying, thereby leaving his body in a sort of stasis. If a part of his body is removed or damaged, his cells can't do any extra work to heal that part of the body because they are already healing his constantly dying cells. If they took the time to heal his injury, his body would rapidly age.

This is true but my explanation is what the show quoted its a science fiction show and as far as I know no one in the world like adam exists 😄 Therefore I cant possibly scientifically explain it but in my ignorance of biology I will simply say one thing: If a person gets more than one cut, Cant he or she heal provided it aint fatal of course 🙄
In short your body adapts to the workload, which is the case for adam but this is all dependant of course on his power which when stripped screws it all up.

Wouldn't it defeat the purpose of the formula?

Why?

If he could already give powers.

edit: Just noticed the "back"

Yeah, I don't like the way I structured that sentence.

No idea. I wonder how peter will get his powers back

Formula! Then meets daddy again!

All my money's on that one or him not getting them back at all.
Normally I wouldn't think that but we've already seen how they can't seem to write him with the abilities so this may be a permanent solution for them. 😬

Still I'm going with my first option and praying that's what happens

Okay, my guess will be...

Sylar will give Peter a dose of the formula, since Sylar is the key to "understanding it" correct?

The ability Peter will get... is...

hmm

I'd be kind of pissed if he doesn't get his original power back.

Hiro really screwed things up. I hope he dies 😬

Hiro is like the best character.

Season 1 he was a pretty cool character.

Season 2, i didnt really care for that much

and now in season 3, hes still an idiot

Yea I've thought of that too but according to the show your power is determined by your own body chemistry. So it should just return his original ability.

But we've already seen how the show is about following its own rules!

As for Hiro, yea even looking at that note was retarded but not going back and just replacing it with gibberish before he got to it is even more retarded IMO, it's really a simple fix but that's got allot to do with why they're gonna stop that in the show.

Hiro's power should really fix most problems quite easily.

just as easily as it creates problems

true but if you just slow down and use your head most problems could be avoided.

Like just going back and changing the note to gibberish. That would have solved this whole people with powers thing and he wouldn't have known that it was gibberish he was holding when they snached it. Then he could just come up with the same plan again and there's no paradox. Even thou this show appearently never has that problem anyway.

well, considering that Peter was born with his ability, then it could be assumed that if he was injected with the formula, he would get that power back.

Ah thats awesome then

Rogue in X-Men?

I don't think Arthur's power works quite the same way. Rogue borrowed powers, but it hurt the person whom she borrowed from. It did not deprive them of power, though.

Arthur apparently hurts the person, but it did not kill Peter. Peter is also, now, powerless.

I would it is Rogue. A Rogue in complete control of her powers as Arthur seems to be.
