I don't know what to make of this. WW has held her own against Superman on a couple of occasion. I know Supes has magic vulnerability (perhaps a better term would be magical susceptibility) but Superman>Sentry based on what I've seen, particularly during World War Hulk issue 5. I'll say WW 4-5/10 for right now. She has far better feats.
Its funny you used Gladiator as a example, since hes one of the few (only?) Marvel characters to have a explanation for his lifting feats. A ways back he picked up the Baxter building, like uprooted it. Reed suggested he was using tech to amp his strength and keep the building from crumbling. But thats pretty much the only example I can come up with.
As for the Ultron thing, wouldnt Superman just restrain Ultron, tie her up with some cables, or otherwise render her immobile? Getting the crap beat out of you for several pages isnt the ideal way to contain/distract someone.
Originally posted by redhotrashUmm. I actually posted the scan of Gladiator holding up the Baxter Building. I wanted to contrast the only known (as far as I have seen) feat of tactile kinesis in the Marvel Universe and then show how it's been retconned with a relatively recent scan by the very same character to puts any theory of Marvel tactile kinesis to rest. I thought it'd be appropriate to use Gladiator since he was the only one who ever seemed to ever display it.

And I don't remember Sentry getting the crap kicked out of him. He got punched. A lot. And attacked by Iron Man suits. Sentry kept on trucking. Besides, Sentry isn't all that experienced and that version of Ultron was by no means a slouch either. I don't think wrapping her up in cables would have restrained her. She exhibited all sorts of zany powers, super-strength, super-healing, flight, durability, energy projection, superior AI...

Are you being serious? Cables restraining her? Did you read that storyline? She was a beast. Like any version of Ultron, she was a team wrecker.
Not saying Supes couldnt have beaten her, just saying that simply trying to restrain her isnt happening.

It's not so much that she still has it, it's that she could call upon it when she wants. Godwave is just asking the gods of the Greek Pantheon to pour their power into her. So unless there is no Greek pantheon, she can always ask. Whether they give it or not is their choice though. It's not her right. Only thing is, she can't contain that power in her body for very long otherwise it's been implied she would die. And Wonder Woman consistently gives Superman a good fight. I think she deserves higher than a medium rating.
I agree with what you said about wonder woman not being medium I'm just saying why I think WW gets a bad rap.

SENTRY IS A DUMMY SUPERMAN KNOCK OFF. HE FIGHTS RETARDED. AND WHAT THE HECK IS HE GOING TO DO WHEN SHE WRAPS HIM UP IN HER LASSO AND MAKES HIM TURN BACK INTO BOB? GET KNOCKED OUT JUST LIKE THE HULK DID TO HIM.
belive what you want but sentry's power are differnt, so is his orgin, his style of dress his features, and his hair color. He rembles more of apollo, or captain marvel.

Wonder Woman is definitely underrated. Her fighting ability, cunning, lasso and Godwave helps to even up Sentry's massive power output advantage.
Godwave isent part of WW`s standart power. She has to ask permittion for it.
