  • "I grabbed Charlie from where she is chatting to the sheriff and the deputy and flipped her. I grabbed a zoom in shot of Hiro and Ando. I stole a Hiro from somewhere else and the Sylar is from his own shot."

  • Jason redrew Sylar's head for this shot. "It was good, but it wasn't good enough ... It's more menacing, but I just didn't like it."

  • Jason said he was going to headbutt his monitor because of all the cop cars he had to draw. He also said that after panel two, he simply forgot to draw the helicopter again. His colorist kept the continuity by placing flood lights in subsequent panels. Additionally, he credits her with "adding a foreboding sense of drama".

  • According to the script Jason received, "The driver's door is open and Sylar is Telekinetically moving himself to a safe place against the mountain." Also of note, Jason drew a particularly thin branch to show that Sylar is holding his own weight with his telekinesis.

  • Jason was disappointed that he did not draw Zane behind a security door since in Run!, Zane Taylor's home has a security door. However, this is the page of which he is most proud; he feels the likenesses of Zane and Sylar are particularly well-captured.

  • Jason says this is his favorite drawing of Sylar. However, he first drew Sylar wearing a hat. Realizing that Sylar doesn't wear a hat in Virginia Beach, Jason retouched the panel at the last minute.
