Black Adam vs Sentry

Honestly, Sentry is just way more versatile. If he brings his A game, BA would have to deal with matter manipulation, telepathy, teleportation, etc. I believe its just to much for Adam to overcome.

Thats my belief and i'm sticking to it.

I wonder what that means about his fights with Billy.

Are you talking about that silly, over bloated, joke of a story WW3? You dont feel the writer didnt take some liberties with that story line? The Sentry was supposedly taken out by Wolverine, Hulkling, and Namor in Civil War too. More comics than not have shown that to be very, very inaccurate so are we supposed to take that one example as gospel? We all know better.

Black Adam is far far faster than Hercules. He is also far more skilled than Hercules.

He stomps Sentry hard.

That depends on Sentry’s level of power. Skill only takes you so far. If you are up against a character that you can not harm, but they can harm you, skill isn’t going to save you.

If Teth can hurt the Sentry at his best, then he stands a greater chance of winning. I’ve never seen Teth without any powers defeat Batman.

Hercules who is slower and less skilled than Adam had used skill against Sentry effectively.

In that case, Teth would beat the shit out of the Sentry, if he can. The Sentry isn’t human, nor does he have to remain in the body that he is in. The closest thing that I could compare Sentry to is part Superman, part Legion. He varies in power because of his handicap, and can be more powerful at times and less powerful at other times. Everything seen from him is his power set.

If Black Adam faced off against Sentry in a comic book with no holds barred, and Bob freaked out and transformed to something between the Sentry, and the Void, no amount of fighting skill will help. Bob can not die, so this isn’t as cut and dry as Count Nefaria (nerfed) vs Hercules in a H2H battle.

The Sentry that fought Ultron with Janet’s body double would beat the shit out of that version of the Sentry. Killing him isn’t really something that would happen, but outscoring him, and schooling him would likely be the case.

Excuse me. I meant that the Sentry that fought Ultron in Janet Pym’s form would get beaten up, by someone able to defeat Batman in H2H combat.

Its specifically the Merged Sentry we saw fighting Okoye and Fat Cobra.

Hercules has nothing to do with this matchup.

If Herc can do it, why not BA?

Are you suggesting that since his merger during his own mini, that all the showings of Sentry afterwards in Doctor Strange, Annihilation: Scourge and King in Black don't matter?

I am suggesting that his showings against skilled opponents are few and far between. The KiB showing had a different costume, no?

Lol, Sentry is far far faster than Hercules too. Whats your point? You seem to be all in on the comedy relief aspect of that Hercules and Sentry encounter. So much so that no other feats seem to matter.

Context matters.

The context is that Stoic is adamant (still) that Hercules' showings against Sentry are perfectly valid and usable in a forum setting.

I agree 10,000% with you, tkitna. HOWEVER, I am calling out Stoic's hypocrisy.

Gotcha. My bad.

True. If you were to scrutinize Sentry's appearance during King in Black, you could make the argument that was a Voidless Sentry and, therefore, less powerful than Merged Sentry.
