NBC has finally issued the official episode descriptions for the much anticipated premiere of Heroes.  The first episode of the second season is titled “Four Months Later” and airs on September 24 at 9pm.   Heroes fans have been biting their nails waiting to find out the fate of their much beloved season heroes, but much of the press leading up to the premiere of season 2 has been focused on the many new faces joining the cast.  With the regular cast out globe trotting in support of the international debut of Heroes, can we assume the season one favorites will be scarce?  Possible spoilers ahead.

The official release from NBC reads:

"As the second volume of Heroes begins, the fates of Peter, Nathan and Matt are revealed, following the horrible showdown with Sylar and Peter’s uncontrolled nuclear detonation miles above New York City. As everyone attempts to move on, a new sinister force begins stalking and murdering Heroes. With the family hiding in Southern California, H.R.G. and Claire attempt to live as inconspicuously as possible. which proves to be easier said than done. Meanwhile, after landing in feudal Japan, Hiro meets his hero Takezo Kensei. Twins Maya and Alejandro Herrera hope to make the crossing into the U.S. from Mexico, in hopes of finding help with their deadly abilities. Dana Davis, Noah Gray-Cabey, James Kyson Lee, Ali Larter, Sendhil Ramamurthy also star. Nick D’Agosto, Lyndsy Fonseca, Cristine Rose, Barry Shabaka Henley, George Takei, Eriko Tamura and Adair Tishler guest star."

Some surprising names are missing from the cast list, and if you’ve been watching the spoiler grape vine you probably know exactly who I’m referring to say.  Suffice to say, one recurring character will be worm food come the beginning of the season.

While no details have been released,  subsequent episode titles have made it onto the interwebs.  They include October 1’s “Lizards,” October 8’s “Kindred,” and October 15’s “The Kindness of Strangers.”
