Ok, so heres my go.
In this universe the Proffesor that made the serum also happened to be Burt's father; who also happened to be the worlds greatest hero, the void.. So when burt found out he injected himself with the serum and he became a sidekick to his father, But as time went by the void grew more violent and dangerous. Soon he had plunged into madness and was going on rapages around the world, The sentry and the void had a great battle and the void was defeated, but his reputation had been destroyed, people had only remembered him as a murderer and a killer rather than the hero he used to be. The sentry stepped up to co-found the avengers, and became the premium hero of the marvel universe. *i might do the avengers if i can be arsed*
The Silver Surfer
First of all, instead of Zenn-La, Galactus comes to Earth. Instead of Norrin Radd, astronaut "Joe Brave" (no F4) is launched to meet the Big G, and in doing so, strikes the Bargain with him: spare Earth and I will be your planet-finding herald. Galactus plucks a thought from Joe's mind for the new, herald configuration, and off he goes.
Advantages so far:
1. This explains why the Surfer looks so damn human.
2. It explains the surfing deal: it was Joe Brave's other passion (the first being, the exploration of space).
At some point, Joe realizes the horror of the deal he's made (maybe after a 1000 planets have died), betrays Galactus, and as punishment, Galactus confines him to the planet of his birth. Later, of course, he is forgiven and freed.
As for the Surfer himself...
When off the board, SS basically just has all human abilities (strength, speed, durability, senses, etc), but enhanced to superduper levels. There is No capacity for power cosmic.
When on the board, this is when he can control and unleash power cosmic. Even then, this power is limited to cosmic awareness, bolts and shields, no molecular rearrangment.
Advantages:
1. This explains why the Surfer needs his board to fly (needless to say, it would be nigh-impossible to knock him off it).
2. By keeping his powers simple, SS can still be insanely powerful, but not insanely versatile, making it easier to write stories and predicaments while avoiding PIS/CIS. And besides, if SS's job is simply to find planets, why does he need to transmute matter? Just give him what he needs to find planets (cosmic awareness) and defend himself (bolts and shields), period, should resistance arise.
Basically, my approach is simplify, simplify, simplify.
Good idea for a thread, btw.
Sentry
By Day Robert Reynolds is a simple worker within a care-home , treating the elderly and sick. By night though he is a semi-fanatical follower of a cult that worships Sol , the sun god of Justice and Light.
While going out upon the cults annual 'purges' (in actuality vigilante groups) he is struck down by a vision of Sol himself who states to robert that he has been chosen to be the protector of him , to look out for those who would try to diminish , nay destroy the mighty Sol.
To equip him for this sol gives Robert His power 'times upon the many thousand revelations that i, sol take upon the word itself '
This 'sentry' of Sol takes to his job zealously , striking down the preacher of sol (whom is actually revealed to be using the cult to gain money) viciously as Sol himself declared within Roberts mind.
Soon though this work proves to be Robert's undoing as his attempts at halting Injustice usually involve him murdering the very criminals themselves.
A mysterious operation soon appears though declaring himself 'The void , an entity whom diminishes your Masters light as if he himself was thrown within the endless black of space' . Oddly enough whenever 'The void' appears Robert's powers fade and wane , with the void becoming stronger also The voice of Sol , the very thing which guides him through (and to) the crimes which he tries to stop disappears.
It is eventually revealed though that the void is merely a figment created by Robert's tortured mind , the stress and guilt of the deaths causing the voids birth. Soon roberts himself is wondering whether he or his world is even real ...could a being as powerful as he really exist ?
A less sucky (Old golden age character ...please ! ) re-vamp of the sentry , with a bit more magic added in.
Here's another one.
En Sabah Nur
En Sabah Nur is a mysterious individual known by many names and even more legends are told about him. Some facts known about him is that he is perhaps the oldest living being on face of the Earth, and his immortality is because he is also a mutant. Research has also revealed parts of his background. En Sabah Nur was born about five thousand years ago in small settlement in Akkaba, Egypt. He had odd markings on his face, so he was abadoned by his tribe in the desert. He didn't die, however.
A warrior clan whose name has been forgotten long ago found the odd baby from the desert. He was adopted by the clans leader. He was trained in the fighting arts where the clan excelled. At the age of ten, he was already among the ten best fighters of the clan. At the age of fifteen, he was on par with the leader of the clan. And at the age of twenty, nobody could not defeat him in battle. The clan believed in survival of the fittest, and someone who wasn't fit didn't deserve to survive. En Sabah Nur believed in this more then anyone. His mutant powers also gave him strength, speed and stamina beyond any human. Nobody was fitter then he was.
That is why, at the age of twenty-one, he killed his entire clan. He didn't think they deserved to survive, because they were so weak compared to him.
But En Sabah Nur also realized that there were people more fitter then he was. Masters of martial arts he had never heard before. People whose skills made En Sabah Nur's skills pale in comparision. But En Sabah Nur didn't want anyone to be fitter then he was. He started to search these masters, and during his journeys, he realized that he hadn't aged a day since he turned thirty. At the age of sixty, he was still as strong, fast and tough as he was thirty years ago. That made him realize that he was immortal.
His immortality giving him infinite time, En Sabah Nur's search led him to the ancient masters of fighting arts. With different ways, he persuaded these masters to teach him everything they knew. After he had learned these skills, he killed the master who taught him them, so he would be the only one who knew them. He searched the best of the best, and slowly started to become the best of the best himself...
Now, about five thousand years from his birth, En Sabah Nur is virtually master of every fighting skill on Earth, and handles few extra terrestial ones too, since during his journeys, he met aliens who had ended up in Earth for reason or another. There is no weapon he doesn't handle perfectly, ancient or modern. Also, his long age has given him wealth surpassed to no one. He has also contacts everywhere, and he is most likely the most influential man on Earth. With five thousand years of experience, he is the most intelligent being in history of our planet, too. There is few who can come close to match his skills in combat or intelligence, and no one who can surpass him in there.
