'THE SENTRY' From Jeff Lemire & Kim Jacinto

[_Feely_]

F**k. Yes.

More excited for this than I am Bendis-Supes.

[Shinglepants]

I’m in.

I doubt there was huge demand for this book but what does that matter? One of my favourite books in the last few years was Tom Kings Vision and I doubt there was a huge clamouring for that. Same for his Mr. Miracle, which is also awesome.

I’ve not yet read Lemire’s Moon Knight run but he received a lot of praise for his tact and deftness when dealing with mental issues. That should stand him in good stead.

Outside of the first mini series it seems like no one has liked anything about this character.

Umm... I liked his other two mini-series... Glad to see he's back

[kilderkin]

The sentry has always irritated me because I keep waiting for him to step up to the mark as a hero

Then he crashes out or voids out

The moments he does step up are fantastic

This could be great

[Harsh Lesson]

Blue Marvel and Hyperion are around, but we're getting a Sentry series? I hope Thor kills him again.

[The Negative Zone]

I don't see why its a on going and not a mini

[CentralPower]

Phase 4 MCU Sentry film?

I hope not.

There are multiple iterations of the Sentry that I like. But, the movies at their best will be able to do a passable take on the Bendis/Deodato iteration. (And, like Bendis/Deodato. But, that was not the best iteration of the Sentry as a character.)

It is nice to see Lemire on a Marvel book again (even if he's also still writing for DC).

Who cares if he is writing for DC? We still get a Sentry series. And, Marvel and DC have to compete a little harder with each other for fans and talent. (We win this fight no matter what.)

What do you mean he’s not a Superman rip-off? He has the same powers and a cape!
100% unoriginal, 0 differences.
(Sarcasm lol)

Never ruin a good fantrum.

Hyperion and Sentry are two different types of character. Hyperion is traditionally a more direct Superman riff (knock-off). Blue Marvel is an older, but still traditional, Superman riff. The Sentry is a more stylized riff on modernizing/back-writing Silver Age characters.

(And, given that two series featuring Hyperion have failed since "All New All Different" started, it is unlikely that Marvel will push the character again for a while.)

Marvel, celebrating true, heroic heroes.

Not every character needs to be heroic.

I mildly liked his first stories. Some I never read. I don't know if I could have dealt with him having an affair with Crystal.

I didn't like him much in the New Avengers. He wasn't horrible, but mostly I was still in the "how could Bendix do this to Wanda" mode, so he was the least of my problems. And I admittedly liked Spider Woman becoming more of an Avenger.

But.... I really liked Sentry in the Uncanny Avengers story from several years ago with Kang and the Apocalypse twins. Loved that arc!

[UltimateTy]

I'll give it a shot

Marvel Fans when marvel moves new creators to existing titles:

"Lol, this isn't a fresh start, these are all the same old characters. All Old All Same Marvel hasn't learned anything. I'll come back when you offer something new."

Marvel releases a new solo starring a character who hasn't had an ongoing in years

"Lol, who asked for this?"

[Username taken]

I’ll read this.

I didn't see it coming

To be fair I've never imagined the sentry had the interest to warrant an ongoing, another mini maybe

Now a blue marvel series would really interest me

[JudicatorPrime]

I'll read if only to count the number of issues that go by before Sentry has a feat. Maybe that's the title? "Sentry: Because you smell feats and so do we!"

[Dr. Banner]

Great! Now my 2nd most anticipated title, right after Immortal Hulk!!

[lordozone]

I really don't understand the hate for the sentry. Sure, he is overpowered, but he si more a Marvelman knock-off than a Superman: he is not perfect, has a real flaw... with the right writer (not Bendis) he can be really interesting !
