  - Oh! I don't mean the actor does. I mean the character does. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 20, 14:24 4
    - I have to disagree - as muted as they are - Vinnie has some dimension to his personality - Mohinder has 1 - can I say that - Epiphany Oct 20, 14:29 3
      - Well, to be fair, it would be great if Entourage tied in with Heroes and replacing Mohinder with a different timeline version of him ... played by vin -- nm - Beryllium Oct 20, 14:31 2

    - yeah they did and the Direct Market almost collapsed because of that. -- nm - Remlik Oct 20, 14:42

      - Aye, they have. But I wonder what ever happened to Capital. -- nm - Mop Oct 20, 14:13 3
        
        I think Capitol was absorbed by Diamond. and 50 yearss ago, Marvel was owned by a newsstand distributor [Curtis/Cadence] -- nm - peglegpete Oct 20, 14:21 2
        
        That's gotta give Marvel some ownership stake in the company. -- nm - Mop Oct 20, 14:42 1
        
        if I remember correctly Diamond bought it outright. -- nm - Remlik Oct 20, 15:10
