The Sentry was a continuity implant that didn’t
exist until Paul Jenkins created him. He was one of the most powerful heroes in
the Marvel Universe but he was unstable since he was at war with The Void who
could take over his body at any moment and destroy the world. Sentry popped back
up in Doctor Strange and the Void is now imprisoned in the Sorcerer Supreme’s
Sanctum Sanctorum, making the Sentry is free to fight crime. But what does that
all mean? Can the Sentry be trusted by other heroes? What is his relationship
with his human alter ego, Bob Reynolds? Jeff Lemire and Kim Jacinto will answer
those questions in the current ongoing Sentry series. Lemire believes that Sentry is
three different people: Sentry, Void and Bob Reynolds. And since Sentry and Bob
are two different beings they have very different lives. The first arc will
involve Sentry’s old sidekick, Scout, Misty Knight and Tony Stark. Lemire is
setting his stories in the Marvel Universe and another reality. The villain in arc
one is Cranio, who was introduced by Jeff Parker, in his Sentry series. And yes,
we will see the Void eventually. |
