    Sentry has so much potential but he doesn't look like he's going anywhere any time soon

    Interesting yes, but that's all he's really been used for since he's just a powerhouse . Of course this is exploited, Tony and every one else use him as their unlimited trump card whenever the situation calls for it, but like many other major characters, Robert has a history and development that I'm hoping Marvel taps into some time in the near future~

    or are all those worth shit?
    not a whole lot i think. I had a first printing of Secret Wars. the one with the first appearance of the black spidey. I didn't get much, but it really depends on if you have a buyer or not.

    They tried, it was awful (See : The miniseries they did about 2 years ago, was horrendously convoluted)

    a comic book store will buy them from you for a bit of money, not a lot but if you're looking to get rid of them would be a good place.

    Yeah...I read those ._. I still refuse to believe they exist and hope it can all be rectified.

    I just love the twist on Sentry, he is basically a god but can't leave his doorway. Which leaves all of the interesting things to be developed physiologically.

    Were I to ever write comics, I would create a character powerful enough to beat the snot out of Sentry for being such a wimp during World War Hulk.

    President: "Hulk is destroying civilization and you are the only person in the cosmos who can save us."

    Sentry: "I can't because I am a huge dork."

    Take some selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, you jerk. All of your superhero friends are getting beat to death because you don't want to take Paxil.

    Seriously, just give me two issues of Phoenix pimp-smacking Sentry around the solar system and I will feel much better.

    I would quote you and replace the word "Phoenix" with "A naked Galka", but I just can't imagine you ever being that happy.

    Emma should just probe his mind again and give him a little boost of confidence

    Same here, just replace Phoenix with Silver Surfer, Thanos, Galactus, Stardust, Thor, Beta Ray Bill, so on so on so on.

    Sentry can actually beat a lot of those guys or at least fight them on equal terms. Perhaps Galactus only when he is hungry. I would love to see a Thor vs Sentry fight. Sentry was basically his replacement in the Avengers.

    Thor should make an appearance in WWH...He hasn't made much progress since his confrontation with Stark

    every time i see Sentry i want to slap somebody.

    it doesn't matter how powerful he's supposed to be, he looks horrible and his powers are boring, everything about him is just blah.

    I was thinking about this earlier today, and as true as it is, some heroes actually have a successful storyline in their return. The only hero I can think of off hand that has come back to life more than anyone is Wolverine so long as his soul stays intact.

    Peter's return to life, imo was pulled off very well. I loved "The Other" arc, and the art (for the most part) along with it, albeit some minor things could've been redone, it was very cool. It's just awesome how he was revived and doesn't get any more chances (as far as people can possibly be concerned...) . Others like Mar-vell's return to the mainstream universe was just stupid , and I hope that if they bring back Steve Rogers (hopefully not), it won't be as bad.
