More Details for Heroes Volume 5 "Redemption"

I'm just getting ridiculously excited for the upcoming season of Heroes. Back on the 21st, IGN posted a summary of their behind-the-scenes look at the upcoming season of Heroes. Please be warned: there be spoilers here.

IGN toured the set during the filming of episode 6 in the new season. They find Sylar is working for Samuel's carnival and were introduced to Edgar, a fellow carnival worker and another hero who has super speed and accuracy. Him and Sylar are likely not going to be pals, as Edgar was taunting Sylar and they end up fighting. Apparently Sylar is back in regular form by this point, and unlike poor Peter, has not lost his powers.

Of note, Edgar is played by Ray Park, or Darth Maul, Toad (from X-Men 2) and Snake Eyes fame. Woot!

What's more exciting is the bond that now exists between Sylar and Parkman. You see, apparently, the memory erasure from the end of Volume 4 didn't go so smoothly, so now a part of Sylar's mind is in Parkman's. Apparently, a lot of the tension that will exist between these two stems from Sylar wanting to get back in his body.

The more I hear about it, the more the fifth volume of Heroes really fascinates me. Like I said before, it seems like the folks behind this show are ready to get it back on track, so I cannot wait to see what Volume 5 "Redemption" holds.
