Orlando Sentinel Hal Boedeker
The DVD helps explain why the series will be a major contender for best drama when the Emmys are handed out Sept. 16. |

For veterans, the pilot alone will make this set worth buying. For those of you who waited until now to hop on Heroes' cape tails...yes, you will believe a man can fly. |

This is a series to be owned and savored, like a comic-book collectible, and it holds up very well to repeated viewings. |

Like any good comic book, the DVD set leaves its audience wanting more. |

The set was good, but it didn't have a big, stand-out feature that would have made it awesome. |

Obsessive Heroes fans will be happy with the amount of bonus features included in this seven-disc set, even if those extras are uneven in quality. |

The splashiest bonus is a 73-minute unaired version of the series pilot, which features a terrorism story line that Kring notes was dropped because of network concerns about how the material would play in a potential 8 p.m. time slot. |

If you haven't seen it, see it. If you have, see it again. Even if it's not HD, this standard-def version is--in point of fact--fairly heroic in itself! |
