[edit] D.L. Hawkins

Who is D.L. Hawkins? --Brown Shoes22 05:36, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Feh. Gods of Wikipedia, forgive me. Ahem.

D.L. Hawkins is a fictional character in the TV series Heroes. He is wanted criminal man with the power to phase through solid objects. He is also the father of Micah Sanders and estranged husband of Niki Sanders. He ran with a crew of men who all wore skull rings.

As of the third episode, his mother Paulette and son have both apparently been in contact with him, and believe he is innocent. He has also escaped prison. He will be appearing in the next/fifth episode, as stated in TV Guide. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 07:33, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

He has also shown the power to effect mind readers and erase memories, its not mentioned in his official character bis so posting it as speculation?--Seth Turner 06:19, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Ummm... How has he shown this? He's not the Guy with Bennet, if thats who your thinking of.. Either that or he can be in lots of places really quickly.. Because Bennet's assistant did a mind wipe in Odessa, then he wounded up stalking his wife in Vegas??? EnsRedShirt 06:24, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Bennet's assistant was credited as 'Mysterious Man' for a whiel on IMDb, while DL has always been DL. while IMDb isn't a great citation source, the page also shows pictures,and you'll see the two are different characters. ThuranX 11:39, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Totally different actors. Totally different characters. D.L. Hawkins, and The Mysterious Man, aka The Haitian. 144.15.255.227 02:05, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

I bet a lot of (*cough* white *cough*)people make that mistake in confusing the Mysterious Man and D.L. Perhaps that distinction should be put in the article?--Hypergeometric2F1(a,b,c,x) 03:47, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Oh for god's sake. They're both darked skinned males with shaved heads. MM, a seemingly minor character, appearing long before D.L., a supposed major character, doesn't help matters, either. It's not racism or "just white people". Gees. Now, keep your comments to improving the article. And frankly, the distinction is made by the differing information.

To make matters even worse, they also cast Nathan Petrelli's campaign manager as a dark skinned male with a shaved head. MahlerFan 19:34, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Comparisons to other fictional characters

An anonymous user has been contributing comparisons between D.L. (and other Heroes characters) to various comic book characters. I don't think such comparisons are helpful to a general readership and in some cases may be speculative or inaccurate. However, I cannot revert these additions any longer without violating the Wikipedia: Three Revert Rule. Primogen 19:27, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Heh. Always good to call for help. Vandalism reverts are like bullets. "I'm out!" "I got 'em!" Flying is a fairly common power in superhero fiction, though. I wrote such in Nathan's PaA section. Ace Class Shadow; My talk. 22:06, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
