At last… the moment we’ve all been waiting for!
I gotta say… if Tracy is supposed to lead them to Rebel, then chances are that Micah is involved… if so, hopefully he will just be a contact and not actually Rebel himself. Guess we’ll have to wait and see…
Problem is that there is no Noah Grey Cabey on the star list. Looks like Rebel is going to be Doyle.
it might be doyle but im still guessing it is micah
oh wait i just remembered isnt claire supposed to team up with doyle anyways so it cant be him
it could be micah, but because he wont be on the star list, itwill probably mean that he wont actually show up but just “Rebel” explaining himself as micah. idk
Rebel could easily be Angela. She has contact with Noah to get the list of targets, and he’s once again playing both sides. Why not Angela P.?
Given Nathan is following in his father’s footsteps it would make sense that his mother who opposed his father’s intentions would oppose his but be more cunning about hiding it after all why else would HRG be involved?
they already revealed angela’s part in this so she cant be the rebel it has to be micah or someone with micahs ability
It could be Angela or her “old friend”, but it can’t be Micah or Doyle.
At least we know when they will tell us whom this is.
it was revealed just before season 3 started that Monica had a very small role, she said it “Wraps up fairly quickly” she also said that the door would be left open for her to return, my guess is, REBEL is micah this is where monicas story comes in as we are yet to see her at all this season. Also, Angelas old friend will be Agent Mills’ mother, from the Webisodes The Recruit.
It probably is Agent Mills’ mother, the old friend…
But Rebel could also be Agent Mills herself.. we’ll wait and see
could’t angela be the rebel. she can see the future so she can worn the people before they get cauht
it could also be someone from level five 12 excaped and we have only seen nine so maybe. it would be cool if there is a much more powerful character thean both sylar and peter. and a person with just one ability but a really strong one.
hey guys, Wendy the makeup woman for the show posted on her twitter site that micah is not rebel. Rebel is being played by a character actor. Let the guessing begin.
Many will tell me I’m insame for Rebel’s identity, but my guess is none other than Nathan, I dont know why I have that feeling, and possible that he may die this volume for sure. I dont think It may be Noah, since he was about to capture Alex even if he is against hunting specials and he still has ties with Angela in possibly rebuilding THE COMPANY, but my possible guess is Nathan, when Peter confronted Danko on COLD WARS he warns him about Matt and Mohinder’s attack , and because Pasdar, for what it seems wont appear in this episode, which may hint that he may not be because he runs away, into asylum perhaps, since at the same time he doesnt trust his own operation and since Danko now knows he is special and is willingly to kill specials, but could be since in 3×22, Nathan is with Claire somewhere in Mexico as confirmed.
For now Nathan is a hard character to identify, since at the same time he is willing to let his asociates kill, like when he warns Mohinder to cooperate in taking Daphne’s ability, that is one reason I think he cant be Rebel, but since always he is a hard character to tell.
Other possible candidate is guest star Swoosie Kurtz as Millie, but I might be wrong.
the rebel could be micah and angela working together or maybe even a group like evs dropper
I don’t know why you’d listen to someone who works on set tell you who’s not who?
But in any case I still belive its a small group including Micah ,Molly the essence of Hanna or Drucker and Leona ( the recruits mother)
semi Facts: Hanna and drucker are perceived as being dead! Drucker said something about their digital forms only being unnecessary vessels for their purushas. Their purushas may have been able to survive, while only the vessels were destroyed.
We don’t know Leona’s powers but we do know both Racheal and Micah were born with there abilities
Micah Sanders hacked corinthianlasvegas.com and found a poster advertising Richard Drucker’s political writings bearing the title Libertad.
Rebel admitted being “scared” and “hating them” for hunting people down. ( Micah or Molly)
Behind the Eclipse 14 indicated that Micah would return to the show this volume.
An information file of Micah is reviewed by the President.
Micah is unlikely to have been able to avoid Danko’s team without help and know when someone is in danger, and Molly is unlikely to have the capability to text message many people in the United States while she is in India;
micah is the one who’s behind all of that because he is the only one who can have control over all eletronic devices, and he might be the one to save all heroes this season.
Mihajlo Agent Mills can’t be Rebel because she has also got text’s from Rebel in the Agent on the NBC website
I was hopin so bad that peter got back all his powers when he feel off the building but no such luck, he is still lam
I think that it’s Future Hiro
I agree pancakes future Hiro does make an exellent candidate but what about future Peter or what about a character i read about on the poll last year that can predict the out come of the near future IE. nicholas cage in NEXT
She might of lied when she said it was a charecter I hope so I would like it to be a new charecter one that has a power like peter
I really think REBEL is Micah or the invisible man.
yes it could be the invisible man scince the actor played doctor who
its probably angela since she can dreams the future but theres a possibility it is micah or other characters.
i dont think its HRG cos wen claire got the text wher she had to help alex HRG was right next to her.
so i dont knoww lol.
I doubt its Doyle, because he needed the “rebel”s help at one point and i doubt he has the knowledge to hack into all those government computers.
Doyle recieved help from Rebel. Therefore, Doyle cannot be Rebel. The most likely candidates are the HRG/Angela alliance, Micah, and Hana/Drucker.
My personal inclination is Micah. Rebel’s language is that of a young man lashing out, and Rebel has used the alias Libertad. Libertad is one of Drucker’s political writings, which we know Micah has seen due to hacking into the Corinthian. Combine this with the fact that Rebel has been manipulating multiple forms of technology, including contacting various people’s cell phones and making text messages appear on TV screens, and that points to a user of technopathy. That means Micah. He may, however, be working with Hana as he is fairly friendly with her, and if he is aware of Drucker, Drucker may be aware of him.
i would honestly say its micha because it makes the most sense i mean why would the president be looking at his file if he would not be in this season right? but we wont find out anything until the show starts which is in two weeks right man i hate waiting for the show. but do yall think peter will get his old ability back not all of them but just the ability to be around people and absorb them not just hold on to one power back.?
The Invisible man idea is a good one. I did hear Claude Rains was coming back into it just as soon as his (busy) schedule clears up. *fingers crossed* that his schedule has cleared as he is a great actor.
i think that it could be a new character lke tracey straus other sister that she doent know barbra i think she is called as we dont know who or what ability she has
still guessing who is reble…its Micah and Molly…..
Repeat after me.. M – I – C – A – H … micah!
Yall ready for this nugget of information, think back to first season when the heroes thought the powers were givin to them by HRG so matt and ted broke into his house and took his family hostage, well anyways remeber when Ted was wasteing time trying to get control of his powers in some shack somewhere in texas, he was confronted by a girl who could manipulate the wifi of his computers by comunicating to the satelites. my guess is she has a hand in being rebel. cause she just VANISHED no trace
and my other therory is rebel is not ONE person, but a few people working together to save the world, or just the heroes in need… for now
I don’t think it would be Micah, ive got a feeling its a group of people acting as a collective.
It can’t be future Peter because Future Claire killed him. It must be Micah because there was never an exit for him.
This show has alot of twists so i just thought of something maybe there are a group of Heroes that we don’t know about that are in a secret base or bunker that are using Micah’s ability to feed information about what the government is doing and who they are going to capture next.
To BO 2 the Day
If you read the Heroes comics, it’s not Wireless/Hana Gietlman (sp?!). She has died & gone to heaven (her spirit or whatever is now stuck in the satellite system).
Sure it could be her working with Micah and maybe even Molly.
*shrugs*
Those are my only 3 suspects.
Me and my friends agree we think it is Micah as well. But did anybody ever think it was Maya? I know out of this world theory but saw somewhere that she is supose to appear for this episode so what shall happen to her in it?
to Arthassia
no i actually havent read any of the comics so i wa a lil lost on that one. lol but i still think maybe a collective of heroes.
but the comics i would like to get my hands on, any idea where to find them? FYI i live in alaska resorces are limited …. almost no comic stores.
Clude might be the “Old Friend”….In the GN the Hunter said he was going to follow a lead on some “Inviale guy”
Reply to BO 2 the Day. The heroes comics are online on the NBC website.
How can doyle be Rebel. LAst time i checked he hasnt got a power to flawlessles hack any device.
It might be the woman shown in Season 1, the person who contacted through Email from antartica or something
Reply to Josh. The woman you mention who was in season one, died in the comics.
Awww.
She woulda been cool to bring back
reply to matt does the comics follow the show?
Some comics follow the show, other comics are stand alone. Some of the comics include characters from both the tv show and webisodes, which you probadly would have seen. Other comics introduce new characters and abilities.
“Somewhere around episode 20, Tracy Strauss will be broken up. And yes, it’s the sort of breaking up that lands the character permanently in a grave. Will she come back as yet another manifestation along the lines of Niki/Jessica/etc.? That remains to be seen. Source: Kristin on E!Online ”
Can we trust this Kristin person? Because from what I can see on the cast lists – until “I Am Sylar” – is that Tracy is going to be in episodes after “Cold Snap.”
But I guess we’ll have to see.
I’m going to stop watching the show if they kill her off, though!
I’m sick of watching Ali die. KILL BARBARA AND LEAVE TRACY.
Regarding the Hana/Wireless character, she existed as a virtual body with Drucker after her physical body’s death. That body was percieved as being destroyed when the computer mainframe of the Company was wrecked (see the graphic novel The End of Hana and Drucker). However, that mainframe was absorbed by Matt Neurenberg (spelling?) and placed into a new mainframe to salvage it. It’s quite possible Hana and Drucker survived as a result. Hana implies this as a possibility herself.
Therefore, a cabel of Micah, Hana and perhaps Drucker is a possibility. Claude has been confirmed not to be appearing in Volume 4 in the first Behind the Eclipse of 2009, which rules him out. On the other hand, Micah is confirmed to definetly be appearing again, Hana is not neccessarily dead and definitely could be of assistance (she possesses similar powers to Micah, and has a much harder personality which suits Rebel better), and Drucker’s files were a part of the Season 2 DVD collection, which means the writers wanted the majority of people who watch the show to know of him. Obviously his alias Libertad points to his involvement in one way or another as well. Therefore, Rebel is more then likely to one, possibly more, of these three people.
