Right up till now, how many heroes are capable of killing Sylar

Heilsin @Heilsin (40) • China 19 Dec 07

Just finished season 2, Sylar is back, exciting! Sylar has multi powers, but he is sure not invincible, how many heroes do you think are capable of killing him?

heroes sylar

4 responses

markb658 Out of all of them, Peter has the most chance of killing him i'd say, because any power Sylar uses on him, peter can just use it back, so he'll always be one step ahead of sylar, And the fight they had at the end of series 1, IMO peter came out on top in that...
