“ Gay Spy ”

Your new hero?

Ladies and gentlemen, we are immensely proud to present West, the latest addition to the Heroes canon.

He's the replacement for Zach, Thomas Dekker's is-he-a-gay-yes-he-seems-to-be-a-gay-but-actually-no-he-isn’t-a-gay-at-all character from season one. West, in case you're wondering, is not a gay.

But the actor who plays him - former ER, House and Six Feet Under bit-parter Nicholas D'Agosto - isn't exactly a chore to look at. Still, if you ask us, Milo Ventimiglia has absolutely nothing to worry about in the loin-teasing stakes.

But what do you think? Does West send your heart all aflutter? Or are you still in thrall to Dekker's pecker? Hit the 'Click here to add yours' button to let us know.

Just read this on Wikipedia: "Though it was originally intended for Zach to be gay, Dekker’s management "didn’t want him to be playing a gay character" for career reasons, and his storyline was later changed." But Dekker is definitely better.

I wish they would bring back Thomas Dekker - he's much fitter than this imposter!
