David Kronke was appointed Mayor of Television after a bloodless coup in 2000. Since then, he has improved infrastructure, championed greater educational opportunities and fought for reforms that have utterly erased corruption and incompetence from the television industry. Since Mr. Kronke has ascended to power, Television is a far better place. “Heroes” battles epilepsy
Greg Grunberg, who plays ex-L.A. cop Parkman on “Heroes,” has a son with epilepsy and does charity work for the Epilepsy Foundation. And to that end, nbc.com is hosting an upcoming auction of the art seen on “Heroes” with proceeds going to the Epilepsy Foundation.
The art going up for auction, created by comic-book illustrator Tim Sale, include "Exploding Man," "Eclipse," "Claire on the Stairs" and "Hiro and T-Rex." Bidding will begin March 26 at 6 p.m. Pacific Coast Time and will close at midnight on March 28 (meaning folks on the West Coast have a better shot at winning, unless East-Coasters want to stay up until 3 a.m. to protect their bids). A second auction will begin on April 2. The Epilepsy Foundation will soon begin receiving a lot of donations inside envelopes sporting “Lord of the Rings” return-address stickers.
