I'm not sure that Sentry is taking someoneelse's spot. this seems innocuous. I doubt that the character was forced on Lemire.
Will it be its sentry's world we just live in it ver. 2.0?
I don't think it's that at all to be fair
I think it's much more they see him as their superman, imo wrongly
I also think, they think, that we think he's a big deal coz of his power level and that were interested in him for that
I find him much of a dissapointment in all honesty
how's that multiverse coming along? I bet that they could use a Sentry. get on it, Reed!
"We live in a world of cowards. We live in a world full of small minds who are afraid. We are ruled by those who refuse to risk anything of their own. Who guard their over bloated paucities of power with money. With false reasoning. With measured hesitance. With prideful, recalcitrant inaction. With hateful invective. With weapons. F@#K these selfish fools and their prevailing world order." Tony Stark
Nothing to do with being overpowered. It's about not being well-written.
He was either this unstable, violent, weak-willed character under Bendis or the "remember the amazing new guy that was the inspiration for all heroes, the guy that took Rogue's virginity, the guy that made Ben Grimm envious due to how amazing he was, the guy that was the best friend of Reed Richards! Aint he your favorite hero?" thing under Jenkins.
Between the "90's hyper-violent hero" or "Character shilling", there was nothing much to like.

but it would be just as realistic to portray Sentry in a way that occupies the middle ground. he can, literally, be anything they want him to be (because of those vastly different portrayals). I still think they could explain most of it away as the Void believing himself to be his old nemesis the Sentry. there's nothing preventing them being two separate entities.

"Great stories will always return to their original forms"

I'm not sure they'll be able to achieve that. The writers have messed already too much with him and it seems that nobody at Marvel knows what to do with him and I honestly don't trust that Lemire will achieve it, as his work at Marvel has been mediocre in my opinion, from what I read in the announcement, it seems that Lemire is going with the Gary-Stue direction.
Oh good. Another chance for Marvel to say "Want to see proof that we don't know how to use a Superman-level character? Here we go again!"
I found him to be one of the high points of Dark Reign. it was fun waiting for him to snap.
