NBC?s newest series, Heroes, debuts tonight at 9.00pm.

Created by Tim Kring (Crossing Jordan), the series follows the lives of people from all over the world who suddenly discover that they have super-powers.

In addition to the TV series, there?s also a series of weekly online comics written by members of the writing staff, including writers familiar to comic book fans such as Jeph Loeb (who is also co-executive producer) and Aron Coleite (V.I.C.E., The Covenant, Proximity Effect). Each webisode will be ?published? to coincide with each new episode and will feature artwork by Michael Turner, Jim Lee, Tim Sale and others.

We caught up with one of the writers, Aron Coleite, to find out more details about the online comics.

?Heroes is a series about ordinary people who get extraordinary people. Doing comic books is just natural. But we wanted to do this right,? Coleite explained to Newsarama.

?We have an amazing staff of writers. Of course, the inaffable, Jeph Loeb. Jesse Alexander. Bryan Fuller. Michael Green. Joe Pokaski.

?Couple that with Michael Turner and his team at Aspen, Jim Lee and Wildstorm and Tim Sale -- we had the right combination of talent to do these webcomics right.

?We're going to do one a week to correspond to the episodes,? he continued. ?Michael Turner and Aspen are doing the first four. Jim Lee and Wildstorm are doing the second four. And if we can tear Tim Sale away from all of the great work he's doing on the series, maybe he'll do one or two. We've been so lucky to work with these amazing artists.

?The webcomics will premiere on NBC.com after the show. So, watch the show. Then log in.?

As viewers learn more about Isaac Mendez, Niki Sanders, Peter Petrelli, Nathan Petrelli, Hiro Nakamura, Claire Bennet, and others, those who check out the weekly online comics will discover new things about each of the characters. According to Coleite, the webcomics will tie in ?directly to the episode you just watched. Filling in or expanding on one of the stories. Sometimes they're back stories. Sometimes they're scenes that you didn't see in the episode. It broadens the experience of Heroes.

?The stories will revolve around the characters from the show. Each week we will focus on a different character. This gives us the chance to go deeper into the characters and reveal experiences, thoughts or choices.

?Working on Heroes, writing the episodes, doing the webcomics is plenty. This show is amazing. It's rare to be a fan of the show that you're working on. This is an exciting premiere. It's so great that everyone finally gets to see this show. It's a wild ride. Hang on. You're going to love it!?

Like Coleite said, watch the series premier tonight at 9.00pm and then check out the Heroes webcomic at heroes.nbc.com.
