It could be the greatest comic of the millennium so far, but without Rob Reynolds as the Sentry, I am just not interested at all. Bob was my guy. He represented me on the page, having been diagnosed with many of the same afflictions and struggled with many of the same addictions.
Don't get me wrong, I do not NEED to identify with every character that I enjoy (see my inexplicable love of DC's Lobo), but it sure was nice to have a guy like Bob around, representing, during my peak comic reading years.
