Sentry vs Superman

Sentry vs Superman

No prep, just an all out fight.

And this is Post Crisis Superman.

i think this one might have been done already......

I concur I think it's been done and Sentry pretty much wins.

Yeah, he probably would win.

On paper itself Sentry will win, since he controls light itself.

What other powers does he have (at the moment I've forgotten)?

he has super-strength, super-speed, invulnerability, flight and enhanced senses. he can also project energy fields, control light, and apparently has vast psychic and mental powers used primarily for holding his physical form together, Like Superman the Sentry is also powered by the sun and absorbs solar radiation for strength

It's basically all right there in that link. The best post out of the whole thing is this:

No, the same could NOT be said. At ALL.

Marvel zombies, on average, DON'T like uber characters. They like street level and high tier.

D.C fans LOVE uber characters, they take pride in it and they base their love of DC on the fact DC has many ubers.

We all know D.C fans hate it when Superman loses, they hate it. They can't handle it. So, what happened was:

Fans caught wind of Sentry, they realized he was more powerful than Superman. They freaked and emailed DC about it. So, to appease the fanboys, DC made this guy with the power of a million suns lose to Superman, just so Superfans could take solace in the defeat.

Superman HAS to be the strongest, fastest, smartest and the best at everything, otherwise....superman jihad.

Though you may think that isn't true, read the first post of the "Superman Returns is going to make 1 Billion Woldwide. Watch" thread, and you'll become a believer. Other threads have basically said that because Superman has more feats he would win, which is flawed logic. Captain America has more feats, so I guess he can beat Sentry? Then there's just guys that hate Marvel for no reason as well.

Superman.

^ See what I mean?

See what you mean what?

Oh, nice pic, moving nearly 15x lightspeed or more and punching a moon in half in one shot.

Has Sentry shown he can do that? Or anything close?
Has he shown any speed, strenth, durability feats that are remotely close to, let alone match Supes?

Sentry is surrounded in myth, and myth just doesn't cut it when pitting him against a tried and true character.

Your comments on Captain America are stupid and fruitless, Cap as a normal human, we know couldn't realistically deal with anyone with superspeed, flight and superstrength, all of which Sentry has shown... he just hasn't shown anything to anyone who doesn't blindly trust in his myths that he plays on Supes' level.

One day he might show to be mightier, but right now, that's all hypothesis and hyperbole and speculation.

Okay then, better example:

Uatu has less feats than Superman, so I guess Superman is more powerful.

It's still bad logic.

No, it's still a bad example.

The logic is fine among simpler powersets.

The only bad logic, is saying Sentry wins, or arguing in his favor, when the simple fact is that he hasn't shown anything that says he can stack up to the Man of Tomorrow. That's the truth.

To be honest, he has enough feats to show that his power is above Superman's, but you have to look at every detail of what he's done. He took out an entire army of people that give Namor trouble by himself, with ease. Also, he beat Terrax, who is immensely powerful himself, within seconds. He wasn't even strained. Also, the fight with the Collective was more impressive than most would think, considering the fact that the Collective probably has a gigantic psychic repitoire to pull from, and could have seen that coming. It also threw Sentry away, rather than trying to engage him in a fist fight. Then there's the Genis Vell fight, where Genis wouldn't take the risk of H2H either. I think there is more of a chance than not that the Sentry is more powerful than Superman, and he's proved enough for many people. If it's not enough for you, then fine. We'll probably have more after Civil War.

To be honest huh?
Terrax is a jobber. Probably always will be.
Namor is nothing to Superman either, so Sentry outperforming him doesn't prove much.
Do you think the Genis would welcome a fistfight with a man of steel? In fact, there's a Genis vs Superman thread, and everyone agreed pretty much Genis could and should win if it was written up right[just as he realistically would to Sentry given his rediculous feats. But in comics is written differently than forum battles.], but any one slip for a nanosecond and Supes would shove his head up his ass.

I don't think Sentry has near enough showings to say whether he's above, below or on Superman's level. He's still an unknown. That means we can't (or shouldn't be able to) say that he can take Superman. Just as we can't say that Superman takes him.

*smells fanboyism & runs*

Sentry can take Superman, as stated above, he was already more powerful than Superman.

he takes away his powersource he cant win

actually Sentry just lost to the Collective but then again so would Supes. Theres still not enough info to accurately have this battle.
