Not so sure about that. Owen punked Surfer pretty easily before and Bob punked Owen. Different powersets,,,could be. I'm just saying that it could be a possibility for Bob.
I'm still on the fence. Its hard to vote against SS as he's done some crazy stuff.

Sentry drowning Surfer with tears won't work here
Maybe he can ask Colossus to help take on Surfer. While Sentry is crying, Piotr can paint a sad picture. Then, they can all beat on a "holding back" Hulk, because he is so deep and sensitive.
Unfortunately, it might work. They will all end up in a bar listening to Surfer talk about Shalla Bal.
Uggh. "Sensitivity". There is no place for it in comic books!

I'd say hulk, but prolly not Thor and Strange
In terms of a fight, yeah, I can get around that idea. But in terms of status and overall formidability, those guys are classically the top guys in Marvel. Hulk's the bench mark for physical power, Thor's the physical/magic "tank mage", Surfer's the energy blaster/manipulator, and Doctor Strange is the mage glass cannon. You could make arguments for any one of those guys beating the other in the right circumstances.
Sentry, lame as he is, was intended to be beyond that at his best.
Originally posted by Sin I AMTo my knowledge, no...which I always found "suspiciously interesting." Like how the Surfer/Superman crossover was, I think, the only crossover where the heroes did not fight. Suspiciously interesting.
have they met?
The impression I get is that Sentry was supposed to be (at least) a whole new level of power in the Marvelverse, and while he had impressive feats, he generally struck me as more hype-driven (sans Void).
Part of me wants to say Sentry wins, to be consistent with what he was "supposed" to be. But...but...I just can't. I am inclined to give this to Surfer...as long as Surfer doesn't try to monologue Bob into submission (though on second thought...).

Yeah but because of how limited Hulk is, there's only so far up he can go normally. For example, we can see Thor and Surfer in fights with skyfathers+ while Hulk usually doesn't get to that level, that's mostly my reasoning.
