The Sentry's Powers - Facts and Fiction

Okay, let's try and get a handle on this whole issue with what the Sentry can and can't do, and how his powrs work, etc. and we'll site our references for each thing we bring up.

First, this is the issue where everyone got the idea that Sentry stalemated Galactus:
http://www.leaderslair.com/sentry/s...spider-man.html
"Peter smirks at the impetuousness of youth getting put in its place by the voice of experience. Spider-Man thinks to himself that he hasn’t really changed all that much, but that he had lipped off to the Sentry… a guy that once fought Galactus to a standstill… and he knew Spider-Man was Peter Parker from the very first time he met him. Spider-Man thinks how he was just a kid, but Sentry took out the Menace Master just by staring at him. He used to idolize Sentry."

Now, since it wasn't seen on panel, many people still hotly debate this topic.

But let's move on. We've heard on numberous occasions that the Sentry is solar powered. We now know that he got his abilities from an advanced version of the super-soldier formula, but he may still be solar powered. IIRC after Captain America was given the formula, he needed to be bombarded with "vita-rays" to act as a catylist. It's possible that the altered formula that Sentry took, makes his body react to sunlight instead of the rays Cap needed. We saw Sentry take the formula in his mini-series, but we never see him given the radiation treatment.

If the Sentry and the Void are equal in strength, and the Void broke every bone in Hulk's body in less that a minute, it's a logical conclusion that Sentry is stronger than even the Hulk.

We know from Mastermind and Emma Frost that he has considerable mental abilities, that are mostly used to hold his physical powers together. We've seen this before in Marvel (people being so powerful that their bodies could barely handle it - X-Man, Apocalypse, etc.). But the REAL question is is he telepathic?

This book has Sentry contacting Xavier via telepathy:
http://www.leaderslair.com/sentry/sentry4.html
"Archangel flies overhead as Professor X instructs his training. Xavier tells Warren to always remember that mastery over their opponents comes not solely from the physical. Suddenly Xavier stops speaking as he feels something.

Sentry asks Xavier if he hears him. Xavier says that he does. Sentry asks Xavier if he knows who he is. Xavier says that he knows that he knows him, but that his identity seems beyond his grasp. He says that he can sense that he is a friend. Sentry tells Xavier to search every cavity of his spiritual being and that he knows that he will find him there. Xavier senses the horror Sentry feels for a returning threat. Xavier asks what the shadow creature he fears is and if it is really capable of such evil. Sentry says that he can’t tell Xavier what it is until he is ready to accept what it means. He says that is why it is important for him to remember. Xavier says that he wants to remember, but that he feels his own self restraining him from doing so. He says that an impossible magnitude tells him that it is wrong to remember him."


Then we have the question of what exactly did Sentry do to Black Widow in New Avengers Annual.

So we have above class 100 strenght.
Possible mental powers.

What else have we got?

I have that fight and didn't see a single hard-light construct. Or at least not an obvious one .

I wish I could get the whole series. I wouldn't mind picking it apart to see his powers. I'm also thinking he can fly at speeds around the speed of light. I don't trust the handbooks.

So we have:

Strength (Strong enough to break the Hulk's bones with ease)
Speed (At least faster than a speeding bullet)
Intelligence (up there with Richards and Stark)
Telepathy (Inserting thoughts into Paul Jenkins subconscious mind)
Light Manipulation/Hardlight Constructs (His battle with Terrax)

Anything else?

Also, I don't think that the Void is a hardlight construct, but rather a psionic entity similar to Onslaught. In the original series when they were attempting to detect the Void's coming, they used machines that detected psionic activity (and that was before they found out he was a part of Sentry's mind).

I hope people don't take this the wrong way but what about kissing your opponents?

I mean it would throw me off if the guy I was fighting just off and kissed me.

He kissed a part himself goodbye. Void = Sentry = Same person

Bringing this up in nearly every Sentry thread? C'mon. All he did was kiss himself goodbye. Unlike Ultimate Colossus who takes it up his yin yang every now and then.

He didn't kiss him goodbye. He knew the void would return.
