Derek and Tucker have been working on a new comic book that will hopefully be releasing later this year, but unfortunately they’ve been left without an artist!
If you’re an aspiring artist or know someone who think might fit the bill, email us with your information and some samples of your work – you might be just what we’re looking for!

Bryan Fuller has decided that going forward he will no longer be writing for Heroes. He will, however, stay on as a producer and feels he’s already laid down some great story arcs for Season 4.
With that said, it has been a strange ride for Fuller. First he’s on the crew, then he leaves, later decides to come back (with a ton of fan support I might add) and now he’s stepping down once again. It doesn’t appear to have anything to do with the show or any of the crew but in his words “the plate — she was over-flowing.” This due to the fact that he’s writing “multiple pilots for NBC.”
While this isn’t the best news we’ve heard, it’s not the worst. He will still be a part of the creative team from a producing stand point and there are already so many great writers and directors that make up this crew, I’m sure it will be a great season. We do wish him the best of luck and look forward to seeing his future pilots come to fruition.

Update 2… Latest news is that Heroes will in fact at least have a small panel at this year’s Comic-Con. According to E! Online Tim Kring and “some of the cast” will be hosting a panel on Saturday, however additional details remain unannounced. We should be getting more information on this event very soon but let’s hope they do the right thing and bring us a Heroes panel as they have in years past. For the full scoop surrounding the Comic-Con Heroes debacle, head on over to TheODI to catch up on all of the updates that have transpired. Follow the story….
Update: The website that broke the news about Heroes’ involvement with Comic-Con has updated their article to say that heroes will have a “presence” at Comic-Con but unfortunately not a “panel” More info here…
For about a week now, rumors have been circulating that a big show will not be returning to Comic-Con this year. As more and more TV shows confirmed their panel times, Heroes was not showing up on any of those lists. This left many of us thinking that there may not be a Heroes panel after all.
Well put those worries to rest because the Chicago Tribune has just confirmed (with Tim Kring himself) that Heroes WILL be presenting a panel and will also have some new footage for us in San Diego. Kring says: “I plan on being there, along with some cast and writer/producers, etc,” “And we’re fully expecting to have a great sneak peek at Season 4 to show. The fans that come to Comic-Con are the best, most loyal that we have. We wouldn’t miss it.” NOTE: Comic-Con 2009 is currently sold out. Read the full story after the jump: ChicagoTribune.com

Word on the street is that Claire will be getting a roommate in the 4th season of Heroes. Well that seems to be coming true as Madeline Zima has just been cast for a recurring role in the upcoming season. According to the Hollywood reporter, Zima will play the role of Gretchen, an “edgy outsider and college roommate to Claire.”
Madeline Zima is most recently recognizable for her role as Mia Lewis on the Showtime series “Californication.” She’s also set to be in a few feature films later this year but some of you might remember her as little Grace Sheffield from Fran Drescher’s series “The Nanny” (1993-1999). Well now she’s all grown up and heading over to Heroes. From what we’ve learned the premiere episode is tentatively titled “Orientation” and that just might involve this new character. I’m sure we’ll know more when filming begins so stay tuned.
