'Heroes: Reborn' Brings in New Heroes, Familiar Faces

I have no idea who was clamoring for a revival of NBC's Heroes, a show that was a first season sensation that flamed out really quickly (like Glee, Desperate Housewives, and The OC to name a couple of examples of series I started but fled during their first years, leading to my relative distrust of network shows to this day, although I'm slowly starting to get back into them). So this isn't for me at all, but I'm wondering if there really is a fanbase out there who's been waiting for this. Anyone?
