All these speculations can be classified as is ridiculous. How in the world can you say that just because sentry was able to take out terrax easily the PC cant affect him? or that none of surfers attacks can hurt Bob evn though Bob has not shown durability at that level?Surfer could simply absorb or manipulate sentrys solar enrgy. He is on a far higher level than absorbing man so there will be no overloading of surfer.Or to make things easier surfer could trap sentry in ethel enrgy( the same material as his board) like he did spiderman, daredevil and carnage. Also if surfer could absorb an enrgy manipulator like legacy with the nega bands into his board the sentry would be no problem. Also as i have stated b4, blasting the sentry to pieces would be another valid option.
Now ive seen people saying that the sentry is far stronger than surfer and should be able to physically beat him. Now this MAY be the case that is sentry may b stronger than SS but this problem can be easily overcome. In the scan where SS drained hulk and turned him into banner, After draining hulk, SS says that he now has the savage strength of the hulk. So all SS would need to do would be to drain the sentrys enrgy and use it to amp his own strength. With this sentrys ONLY way( which can evn be argued) of winning is nullified.
SS wins this match 10/10
Bob has more than shown durability on that level... it's his impact durability that may or may not be in question.... just because King Hulk made him look like a bruised peach isn't saying much, if the Hulk at that level hit anyone repeatedly in the face many would have died, he was throwing planet breaking haymakers.
Sentry has shown on panel evidence that energy based attacks are pretty useless against him... let me bring up a few. When he taclked the Collective, he was being bombarded with many powers and was unaffected, the only way to get rid of him, was by bfr, because the Collective knew that he was about to lose. This is the same guy that killed Alpha Flight faster than they could blink.
Terrax, a being showm with the capability of destroying planets with his Power Cosmic (and with ease). Poured it on and was outputting more energy when he assaulted the Sentry than he ever had before, Sentry smiled and crushed him.
Ultron had control of lighting (electro magnetic radiation) and this had no affect on the Sentry, Ironman's repulsor blasts had no affect on the Sentry.
The Sentry held a resisting Cosmic Cube in his hands for nearly a minute, This would destroy most beings by tearing them apart, I really don't see the Silver Surfer being able to do this, if so why didn't Reed ask Norrin?
The Silver Surfer's Power Cosmic would be inneffective in dispatching the Sentry if they fought. This is more than just ABC logic, energetic assaults have failed in the past to stop, or even effect the Sentry. According to Bob's very own profile The Silver Surfer should not engage him in a shootout, because Bob hold more Cosmic Power than Norrin Radd.... The power of a Thousand exploding Suns.
The Silver Surfer went insane when he absorbed far less than the power of one Star.
The only viable way for the Silver Surfer to combat Bob, is through fisticuff.
