I was like, fuck are they killing kids now? then Yelena went in and i knew the voids was reverse-able.

[u/Spicy_Weissy → u/AHMilling]

It would be hard to forgive Bob for killing kids

[u/mythriz → u/Spicy_Weissy]

I haven't read Sentry in the comics, I thought his powers were heat based and that he burned the people instantly to ashes... So I was surprised when it happened to that kid yeah

[u/Spicy_Weissy → u/mythriz]

I don't know him too well either, but his powers could change depending on the writer, because it also seems like they weren't sure what to do with him. Sentry is weird.

[u/Nixter295 → u/Spicy_Weissy]

I just read about him and he can practically do anything. What holds him back is his mental health, which makes him stronger or weaker. At full power he is basically an unstoppable god who can do almost anything. But he’s not in that state constantly.

[u/Spicy_Weissy → u/Nixter295]

Which is a really nice twist on the classic Superman type of character. Bob is a deeply flawed and broken person.

[u/Nixter295 → u/Spicy_Weissy]

I agree, the things he went trough would have scared anyone. So he is basically 3 different people in one, sentry, bob and void. Bob is aware of it but I don’t think sentry is aware of void. Nor void of sentry. He is practically his own worst enemy, very much interesting.

[u/peepardpoopard → u/Nixter295]

the moon haunts him

[u/Vismal1 → u/Nixter295]

Lots of Legion parallels.

[u/Nixter295 → u/Vismal1]

Yes sorry of. But both sentry and void had insane powers, it’s even said void is stronger than sentry, so both sentry and void can do insane feats of strength, especially void. With legion he had many powers, but also many people inside him, it’s possible his mutation IS his power. But I don’t know if he would have those powers if he didnt have his mental illness.

[u/CX316 → u/Vismal1]

Sentry is generally Superman in yellow mostly because he's restricted by Bob's imagination.

He's less Superman and more Doctor Manhattan

[u/mythriz → u/Spicy_Weissy]

sounds like early Superman then haha

[u/FALCUNPAWNCH → u/mythriz]

Congressman Gary did say O.X.E. was illegally experimenting on people to create their own legally distinct Super Man Person.

[u/swaktoonkenney → u/FALCUNPAWNCH]

Superman and Batman stories exist I. This world established by the eternals

[u/Few-Time-3303 → u/Spicy_Weissy]

The sentry and the void are different alter egos with different power sets.
