Last spring, creator/writer Tim Kring left us wondering: What happened to Hiro, did Peter and Nathan survive and did Sylar really get away?

The “Heroes” season premiere “Four Months Later” answered some of our questions and created new ones. Taking place four months after last season’s finale, fans see where the heroes’ powers have taken their lives after the battle against Sylar (Zachery Quinto).

Hiro (Masi Oka) is sent back in time to discover his hero is a fraud, Claire (Hayden Panettiere) and her family are hiding out in California, Nathan is a drunk and Peter has no memory. Little Molly, the human tracker, is under the care of Parkman and Suresh.

Since secretly saving New York from a nuclear blast, the heroes seem to be having trouble adjusting to a normal life. Then again, when you have super powers, it can be difficult to fly in under the radar.

In addition to being updated on the heroes’ lives, we are introduced to a few more heroes. Alejandro and Maya are brother and sister trying to cross the Mexican border into the U.S.

Their introduction to the show begs the question: What exactly are their powers? All that’s for sure is without Alejandro, Maya becomes deadly.

Kring knows just how to develop a strong fan base. He ingeniously creates new heroes, troubled not only with their differences but also everyday life. While viewers root for the heroes, they also want to pity them.

With little commercial interruptions and subtle Nissan product placement, the “Heroes” premier was as promising as its debut last fall. With its signature comic book-styled drama, “Heroes” keeps you on the edge of your seat at all times.

When the episode finally answers the questions that are burning inside from the last episode, it only leaves you with more questions to haunt you for another seven days, 168 hours or 10,080 minutes – not that anyone’s counting.
