NBC would not comment Thursday.

No decision has been made, he said.

But theHeroesbrand is an extremely broad premise.

Any number of stories could happen around that.

We never posited a single ending or a single premise.

It wasnt about getting off of an island or stopping something from happening.

We told stories in volumes that had a beginning, a middle, and an end.

Those volumes could go on and on and on with many different characters.

As a result, thatHeroesuniverse is something that can be tapped into again in many ways.

Translation: Any kind of follow-up could happen on the web!

Or maybe in print!

Just not on NBC during the 2010-11 season, it seems.

It was about a third world war involving the invasion of the United States.
