In the new miniseries he defeats Terrax quite easily, so I just don't think he is depowerd by any means. By the way, there is a small mention in issue #2 that in the Tegative Zone the Sentry is almost powerless, while the Void grows in power. I am not sure if that bit of info is worthy enough to be added to the Wiki entry (perhaps it's better to wait #3 for confirmation?).

Requested move

  • Oppose - Sentry should become a disambig page. violet/riga (t) 17:49, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose, I agree with Violetriga. Sentry has many other uses, e.g. I beleive the guards outside Buckingham Palace are sentries, and there must be a hundred security firms with Sentry in their name. Thryduulf 16:45, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Someone tell Bendis!

Great lineup for the Avengers, don't ever change 'em, no matter what anybody says. But if you'd take my opinion seriously, consider these options; Nova instead of Sentry (don't copy Superman. You've gotten rid of your Green Arrow rip off, don't back pedal). Wasp instead of Spider Woman. Better for Spidey. Cloak and Dagger instead of Black Panther. Reserves; She-Hulk, Hulk, Doctor Strange, Shanna the She-Devil, maybe Dazzler. Other than that, keep it going. X-men will be just fine, I promise.

Nobody cares. Stop behaving as if Wikipedia is a forum. Apostrophe 02:57, 5 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Concerning the Sentry's Power

It's stated in the article that the Sentry "may" be as powerful as the Silver Surfer or the Phoenix - well, it's stated plainly in the original Sentry miniseries that the Sentry fought Galactus to a standstill at some point in the past. Wouldn't this make him significantly more powerful than either of those figures? 66.157.177.27 18:04, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Wasn't the Sentry just depowered? Also, standstill means tie. And Phoenix has defeated Galactus before. --DrBat 18:31, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Depowered? Did something happen in the new issue of the New Avengers, which I have not been able ot procure? Aside from that, consider that fighting Galactus to a standstill is about the limit for anyone who doesn't want to kill Galactus, unless they're willing to destroy the universe. I mean, I may be wrong here, Galactus may have been as weak as when he fought hte Phoenix when he squared off with the Sentry, but the Void - half of the Sentry's complete strength, if indeed it is finite - was still capable of literally erasing the universe from existence, and killing every hero on Earth in a matter of minutes. It's not inconceivable that the Sentry would still be more powerful than the Phoenix (and certainly more powerful than the Surfer). 66.157.177.27 21:04, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Bendis recently mentioned some of the plans he had for the Sentry in an interview with comiXtreme. In response to the question, "What is the Sentry’s role on the team, is he going to be de-powered to fit the team, and also will we see The Void in New Avengers?" Bendis responded, "Yes, the Sentry’s role will be defined very clearly in the second arc of New Avengers. His powers will be defined, and The Void will make an appearance." Anyway, I thought he was depowered or something. Most fans have assumed he will because there's no point in there being any threat, with such a power-house in the team.
And as for the Void; Dark Phoenix is also capable of destroying the universe. --DrBat 21:15, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Hey lookit me, I logged in. An excelelnt point concerning the Dark Phoenix, except that the Sentry on the whole is twice as powerful as the Void is, if not infinitely powerful. And that wasn't my original point anyway - the Sentry has slugged it out with Galactus and is more than capable of destroying the entire universe Infinity Gauntlet style. Maybe the Dark Phoenix is comparable, but there's no way that the Surfer is. Wyborn 22:05, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Well, he's designed as (1) the most powerful hero in the MU (2) someone you wouldn't trust with the power to boil water, let alone the most power of any hero in the MU - SoM 22:27, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
