what exactly do you know about him?
other than what a few people said in his limited series... ie... he stalemated Galactus....
this could all be a hoax, his powers (or someone else's) could easily later be revealed to have hypnotized everyone to belive all that stuff
the only thing he has actually done is tear Carnage in half
We don't know enough about him to be sure but
He is the worlds (Marvels) greatest Hero (according to Reed)
He can fly (into space)
He is superstrong
He is almost invulnerable if the mini is right
Hulk hits "Golden Man" with a train
He has a cape
In some ways he is like Supes in others, he is more like Miracleman or Shazam. or even Don Blake/Thor
He has a human alter ego
Much weaker and flawed than he
He changes from the weak human Rob Reynolds into Sentry
The mini paid "homage" to the golden age in a lot of its language, e.g. "the golden guardian of good".
Its Artwork also at times paid homage to golden age Supes, Shazam and Marvel man.
He has a serum like a lot of Golden age guys (Hourman springs to mind) did.
So why is he like Supes besides his powers, well Stan Lees back story. Rob Reynolds was the first and greatest. He taught the others about heroing, ring any bells yet.
So he has been created with uncle Stans false back story to be Marvels Supes, Marvel being Marvel they have to give him a twist, like most Marvel characters he has feet of clay, e.g. Tony's alcholism, or Hanks spouse abuse, he is an addict and he has a dark side........ like Warlock has the Magus, he has Void.
So whilst he is a Supes clone he is not as direct as say Hyperion or Gladiator, he is a mixture of more than one good idea. He has though undoubtedly been created to fill the "void" (coincidence) that marvel does not really have its Superguy.
Well thats my thoughts and opinion.
Keep the faith 🙂
