i like The Sentry

I love the Sentry because he is a character that has problems of his own, and isn't perfect. Which would be the reasons I hate, absolutely hate Superman.

"Sentry is cool. Personally, I think he should appear in an animated movie, cartoon, or live-action movie soon. "

You can't even consider the Sentry a Superman rip, anymore. Really, what do they have in common? Being the most powerful being on their earth? Wearing a cape? The letter S? That's pretty much it. Everything else is completely different.
 
I'm on the fence with Sentry at all times. I didn't like him to begin with when Jenkins created him in the original stories and with his backstory always changing and his powers always fluxing it's hard to like the guy when he has so many different showings. But I don't not like him because of that, but because that's part of his character.
 
I don't think it's so much Bendis's fault as it is just--that this could very well be the direction Bendis wanted to take the Sentry in. Sentry is cool at times [I mostly liked him that first arc of New Avengers].
 
Honestly, he doesn't even seem to have the power of a million exploding suns...more so he seems to warp reality, but that's just me. I see him going the way of Wanda and winding up being a gigantic threat to the Avengers.

" Sentry had his chance to be cool in World War Hulk, but he (technically the writer) blew it. I'm done giving him chances. "

" Sentry bored me.  I don't really care about him. He's had done nothing interesting, except being shot at the face by his girlfriend.  Maybe he could wipe himself out of the reality and memory people once more ?  "

Sentry needs a writer who doesn't write him like a damn fruitcake.  I constantly talk about how I liked him for the few pages in blue marvel, and it's true. He looked like had drive in there, not like he was into superhero business because someone told him to.

What counts as interesting to you? "

I like the Sentry however it isn't because of what he has done or his present character, I like his potential.If the right writer was allowed to take him over and for instance after Dark Reign let The Avengers get back together and let Bob join them having gotten rid of the void completely some how or maybe manifesting the void into a completely alternate character.Then we get the story of a real hero that has great potential.Heck let The Sentry end the Reign after having had enough of being used by other people he decides to end it and proves his worth.I just wish he would have a chance to develop his character post void and insanity.Having said that I haven't really read much of him especially any of his early stuff, any recommendations?
 
basically IDK but I want to like him.

Priceless... and funny !  I know I will sound rude, but this is the only moment I was interested for what was happening to sentry... "

Excuse me if i'm not amused. "

I thought it was funny in "The Punisher kills the Marvel Universe" when the Punisher shot Cyclops in the face.I don't find this funny because this is another Bendis cop out so Sentry cannot be present during the event. "

You forgot the fact Sentry and Superman both get their powers from the sun.

Everybody can't write for Sentry.Apparently Greg Pak and Bendis are those people.Jeff Parker and Paul Jenkins do him justice though. "

I've always been iffy about Sentry's powers coming from the sun. Was there anywhere that this was said explicitly? I know that he has some level of energy manipulation and that he can feed off of solar energy, but I always thought his powers came from his molecules being shifted a second ahead of the timeline at all times from the serum he took. "

he needs to die. unless he didn't come back in dark avengers 10 in which case hooray!!!

" @The Devil Tiger: So..... is Sentry dead now?  lol.  I myself like Sentry, at first it was because I was in sort of a Supermen of comics stage(which at times I'm sort am) and I started checking out his books and I really liked him. The only thing that makes him similar to Superman(My Favorite Comic Book Character out there) is some of his powers and kind of his appearance. Now Why kind? Well.... Besides having a Cape and a S..... and I guess the underwear and the boots. XD   I don't really think he's all that weak strength wise because it's sort of  depends of the writers really, just like Superman. And Remember..... Zombie Sentry(with some help I guess) took down a Galactus..... yeah. What I would like to see with him is more people work with him and write him properly, I haven't really read Dark Avengers and I don't like it how he's working for osborn but when that changes I hope they make it better. Because stories such as the second sentry limited series(need to read the first), World War Hulk, and Age of the Sentry were EXCELLENT stories involving the character and were written properly. F**K Wolverine, Give Sentry some love. :(  Oh and a better Marvel Legends figure because that first one SUCKS.... because it just doesn't seem like him, I mean sure the beard varient does but the problem is he has gold hair not down and.... he doesn't have a beard for too long. HASBRO, PLEASE MAKE A MORE PROPER SENTRY!!! D: "

" It's been 9 years. I've given him plenty of chances. He's still a terrible character. "
