So here's what we know...


Linderman used to be part of some group of heroes that attempted to do good for the world but was eventually corrupted due to some members using their powers for personal gain.


So...


Linderman was in it. Based on episode 21, Mama Petrelli seems to have been in it, perhaps Mr. Petrelli as well. But who else?

Mr. Nakamura?
Simone's Dad?
Niki's father?

Anyone have any guesses?

Yes.
Yes.
Maybe.Wait.Yes.

I think Linderman, Mama Petrelli, Papa Petrelli, Mr. Nakamura, maybe Niki/Jessica's dad, I think Thompson has "abilities" that haven't been revealed yet.

I'm quite certain Mr Deveaux had some involvement. His building was a central meeting place for the OWI, as seen in Company Man flashbacks.

I believe that Mama Petrelli is likely the second in command after Linderman. I think that she was more ruthless than Papa Petrelli had ever considered being, which, as a result, lead to his "death".

We know Linderman is high up in the company, but is he truly the top dog?

I would also like to know what Primatech Paper was prior to the formation of the Company. Remember that the whole Austin/Linderman thing happened in 1969, but the Primatech logo states that they have been in business since 1962.

I wouldn't put too much faith in Hal (Niki's father) as having anything to do with the company. He was just backfill to better explain Niki/Jessica's experience and why she is the way she is.

Obviously Mr. Nakamura

I think we can also add Mrs. Hawkins to the list of possibilities. In whatever ep she was in (4/5?) she had that interaction with Niki, and seemed a little smug. Like she knew something about DL that Niki didn't.

I don't think Thompson has abilities, and judging by the events of the trailer it looks like HRG is gonna take him down.a


Definitely Mama Petrelli, Father Petrelli and Linderman. Hiro's father seems a possibility as he probably has an ability given that his son does.

The interesting thing will be to see how they all met originally.


Hey...what about Claude? He's older, and was a "trainer" of Heroes...so that would work for the "we worked to try and help people" angle. And once they started the Company he became one of the workers. I'm not sure, he might not be old enough

Yeah, I don't think Thompson is one of the older generations. He's a bit too young.

Mama+Papa Petrelli
Linderman
Nakamura
Deveaux
Claude?
HRG?

HRG isn't an original, he was brought in later as we see in Company Man, and he doesn't have any powers.

Wait Thompson has a power, the power to be 1 dimensional character,die, and look reeeally creepy till the end.

Mama/Papa Petrelli, Linderman, Charles Deveaux, Kaitou Nakamura, Claude, HRG, and Thompson.

Definitely Mr. and Mrs. Petrelli, Mr. Deveaux, Mr. Nakamura and Mr. Linderman.

It's a long shot, but maybe also Chandra Suresh? I mean, the Company did seem to know an awful lot about Shanti and his quest for a cure.

They may have known about his research, but it didn't looked like they had contacted him. The Company do not have his list, which I would have thought they would want, and they also did not seem to know that Mr Bennet visited Chandra in "Six Months Ago".

Did the Company put Eden in place to spy on Chandra, or did Mr Bennet do that himself to protect Claire?

I think Papa Petrelli has a big big part to play: he's the one we know least about. I have a feeling he was more like Peter than Nathan.

I Dont Think That Thompson Was Part Of The Old Generation Of Heroes And That Maybe His Corperation Is Rivals Of The Older Generation Hense The Reason Why Linderman And Claude Infiltrated It And Attempted To Stop It From The Inside. Although Reading This Myself It Sounds Like Crap I Did Have An Idea Of What I Meant When I Started.

Although I Do Think That Chandra Was Part Of The Originals, Here's Who I Think Was Part Of The First Group:

Kaito Nakamura, Claude Raines, Mr Linderman, Chandra Suresh, Mummy And Daddy Petrelli, Charles Deveulax. And Maybe Sylars Father Who Is The Guy That Molly Said Is Worse Than The Boogy Man, In My Opinion.

that seems about right.
