There ya go.
People don't want either of these people being better than the original (certain people). That's why they get no love. No matter what Sentry did, he was still hated on the forum and he will always be hated along with everyone that I've mentioned. I honestly believe that is messed up. Even when Sentry Voided out, people still nit picked to fnd ways so that he wouldn't be better than his copy (well he is Supes copy).

It's not solely because he's a rip off, but also largely because he, in an absolute sense (not relative to Superman) sucks.

QFT. And it's not even us calling him a rip-off. It was Joe Quesada himself who said he was going to be Marvel's Superman.

I seen him as a great character with a lot of potential. It was just those mood swings that threw me off.
People will always hate Supermen rip off... its nature. They don't want the copy being more powerful (even though Sentry, King Hyperion, Supreme, and Gladiator is more powerful imo) than the original.

Having any depth of character and a personality that is in any way bearable are also important.

I agree and that's why Superman stories will always be greater than the peeps that I've named and that's why Superman versatility with his powers will always be greater than theirs and he will always remain an icon.
I just think people should actually pay more attention to these characters instead of bashing them because they are similar to Supes. Overall, all of these characters have a lot of potential and made good stories.
Supes will always be numero uno but there are people out there that are more powerful and even then, there shouldn't be a reason to hate these said characters.
I admit, Glads is my fave but I also admit that Thor can get a majority against him, Surfer, WWH, Orion (w/equipment), etc, etc... but I'm not going to go around dogging these characters because they are just overall powerful enough to drop Glads... just doesn't make sense and its kind of childish imo.

I always got the impression that you hated Superman with every fiber of your being.

Lol... naah, I don't hate him. Supes is about the only character that I read... that's why I can bring up everything that has happened with him along with arguing against people that mislead other people with his feats. I just disagree with a lot of people on how powerful he is and I also disagree with people on how powerful they think Thor AND Thanos, along with Wonder Woman. I think they are powerful but some people just overdue things a bit. I guess people can say the same thing about me and Gladiator.
Are marvel heralds as strong/stronger than superman
based on feats .
Thor-destroy a planet by hitting it with mljonir
Herculese-bench pressed the weigth of the earth
Gladiator-destroyed a planet much bigger than earth, destroy a star etc
Hulk-physically overpowered a planet from exploding, destroying a planet twice the size of earth with a punch, and can basically out muscle everyone in this thread.
