* The structure of season 3 will be 13 episodes in volume 3, “Villains,” and 12-episodes in volume 4 (which Kring said in another interview would be titled “Fugitives”).
* All new characters introduced this season will immediately be a part of an established character’s storyline.
* In a flashback episode that will show events pre-dating the pilot, we will get to see more of pre-Sylar Gabriel Gray.
* Because of the way the strike changed season 2, we will not find out what happened to Peter’s Irish girlfriend, Caitlin.
* Kaito Nakamura’s power was intentionally revealed on the DVD for hardcore fans but Kring does not know when TV viewers will learn of his power.
* Serial killer Sylar will return this season to Heroes during its highly anticipated two-hour premiere. But, will we see more of his pre-evil alter ego, Gabriel Gray?
* According to Zachary Quinto, he’d love to see as much of Sylar’s background as possible. He confirmed that Gray will return this season, revisiting the “shades of that character as you first saw him.”
* The first time we learned of Sylar’s past was in the first season’s episode “Six Months Ago” in which Chandra Surresh tells watch repairman Gray that he may have super powers. When Gray learns of his real power, which is stealing other people’s abilities, he uses them to kill off other “heroes.” Surresh figures out Sylar’s killing streak and becomes one of his victims.
* In “Volume 3: Villains,” creator Tim Kring intimates that by using Gray, the show will continue to “peel the layers off of that onion as long as this character exists on the show.”
* Sylar will play a major role in volume 3 and will have “a series of very human relationships in this season.”
