== Good GN ==

I thought this was a pretty good GN. I loved that they brought Doyle back :) --{{User:Leckie/Signature 7}} 06:58, 29 December 2009 (EST)
*Me too.. --{{User:Janrodrigo/sig}} 07:04, 29 December 2009 (EST)
**I was hoping for a "Bloodlines, Part 3" but I suppose it's still a good GN. - {{User:Jenx222/sig4}} 07:12, 29 December 2009 (EST)</span>
*** Same, Bloodlines was a good pair of GN's -- {{User:Leckie/Signature 7}} 07:28, 29 December 2009 (EST)

==Puppeting, technically...==

Not starting another debate on ability names, with the conventions under review. But aren't GNs and Assignment Trackers the same level of canon, meaning we could finally get rid of "Puppet Master"? I know most people don't like the fact that it's more of a title than an ability name. You might say Doyle was being descriptive, but the fact he says "technically" makes it more explicit then it otherwise would be- he's correcting the power's name, after all. [[User:Swmystery|Swm]] 07:03, 29 December 2009 (EST)
* Yeah I think, puppeting is better than puppet master. --{{User:Janrodrigo/sig}} 07:04, 29 December 2009 (EST)
** Gotta agree there, "Puppetry" is much better. -- {{User:Leckie/Signature 7}} 07:28, 29 December 2009 (EST)
***No, not ''puppetry'', puppet''ting''. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 10:16, 29 December 2009 (EST)

== Joseph's building an army, too... ==

Interesting... it looks like Joseph is going out of his way to assemble folks to take down Samuel. --[[User:Ricard Desi|Ricard Desi]] ([[User talk:Ricard Desi|t]],[[Special:Contributions/Ricard Desi|c]]) 11:58, 29 December 2009 (EST)
*In a manner of speaking. It seems Joseph was making some contingency plans in case Samuel grew too strong for him to control alone. He probably wasn't going to kill his brother, though. [[User:Swmystery|Swm]] 12:04, 29 December 2009 (EST)
**Yeah looks like he ''was'' xD If he was still alive and their was a confrontation, it would be good to watch --{{User:Leckie/Signature 7}} 12:05, 29 December 2009 (EST)

== Checklist mostly done :) ==
Anyone else notice that we got the checklist for this GN done really quickly? -- {{User:Leckie/Signature 7}} 12:24, 29 December 2009 (EST)

== Brothers ==

Is anyone else having trouble telling whether one of the brothers is Samuel or Joseph when they're not in the same panel?  Or am I just crazy?--[[User:PJDEP|PJDEP]] - [[User Talk:PJDEP|Need further explanation?]] 22:53, 29 December 2009 (EST)
*I had that problem too. Granted, the actors themselves do look somewhat similar, but it's still hard to differentiate. [[User:Swmystery|Swm]] 05:38, 30 December 2009 (EST)
**I'd the same difficulty too. I think, until the trailer, it was Samuel, then Joseph showed up from the trailer. --{{User:Janrodrigo/sig}} 06:18, 30 December 2009 (EST)
*** It was Samuel. And inside the trailer was Joseph. Their clothes are different. {{User:Altes/Signature}} 06:24, 30 December 2009 (EST)
**** Samuel was outside the trailer, then it was Joseph inside. I was only able to tell because the artist gave Joseph ''huge'' ears. -- {{User:Leckie/Signature 7}} 07:29, 30 December 2009 (EST)
