What if The Crow was the hero in The Dark Knight instead of Batman? Basically Crow has to stop The Joker's plan from the movie(The Two-Face subplot is included). Crow has all the detective gear(And the knowledge to use it) Bats did in the movie. He will also employ knives, shuriken, and duel revolvers. Joker has all the weapons he used in the movie. So can The Crow do it. Also it doesn't matter if Crow can't die, he just has to stop Joker's plan. Inspired by this trailer
Well I know the guy who created Thor and Silver Surfer considers Thor the more powerful character, then again, anonymous random people on the internet with really strong opinions that I am sure aren't biased or formed based on their personal subjective reasoning and understanding of the stories, characters and writers intent with characters might have even more weight and so I might just be prone to taking them more seriously.... Cool thread/OP by the way, I'm actually a huge Sentry fan, he's a deconstruction, and so supposed to share similarities with Superman, and I don't really consider it a compliment or lack of for Thor to not be considered Marvel's Superman, but hey. Plus Marvel can register many things about Thor and thus use him uniquely and there are probably more non DC Superman running about and exploiting Superman anyway. So there's that, and again the fact that Sentry's creation was independent of Thor and well I could go on.
I used to be a Sentry fan. I found his first appearance in Marvel Knights to be extremely well done, despite the hoax that surrounded him, and felt that he had a lot of potential as a character. I loved the idea of having a character that was basically Superman, but with the completely rational fear of accidentally killing people with his powers. But I eventually began to hate how Marvel was treating the character to the point I disliked him completely. I think the Sentry would have worked better in a separate universe, like Squadron Supreme, in that his character would have had much more of an impact on the story if he was the only superhero in it
