The Sentry Fights The Marvel Universe (Comics Explained)

- The Sentry is rumored to be played by Steven Yeun in Marvel's upcoming Thunderbolts film! And since I love the Sentry more than Marvel ever would, I've decided to remaster the origin of The Sentry, Robert Reynolds, as well as go into detail about the fascinating origin he held as "Marvel's First Superhero". In the thrilling conclusion of the Sentry, we delve into Robert's mysterious past, and dive into the reason why such a prominent hero was forgotten by the world.
▸ Sentry (Robert "Bob" Reynolds) is a superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee, with uncredited conceptual contributions by Rick Veitch, the character first appears in The Sentry #1 (September 2000).

You gotta serious problem with bots on here. I call em’ Robo Robs.
Hell yeah dude, never would have known about this story and im super excited to go read it now
Bro you're awesome! Ever thought of covering irredeemable from boom comics? I'd watch it immediately
Beyond Omega Level: Icon (DC Milestone Comics)
It's cool...
I’m glad to see so many positive responses to Sentry. He was a labor of love. Took a few years to get him published but I’ll always be grateful to Marvel for allowing him to come to life. Cheers.
Holy. Wait are you the Paul Jenkins who *made* the sentry? That's awesome man he's one of my favorite things to come from Marvel
🙏🏾 thank you Paul Jenkins
Love the Sentry. Thank you
Thank you so much!! ❤❤❤❤
🙏
There was a time in Marvel comics where Spider-Man's secret identity was whipped out of people's minds, but Hulk knew who his secret identity because he said that Banner forgot, but Hulk did not.
Maybe that's it.
“Hulk never forgets”
🥶
Was it whipped though?
I remember something like that as well Hulk never forgot who he was.
That comic was made after this one. Dr Strange actually mentions The Sentry before the Parker memory wipe. Hulk just doesn't forget.
Man, I really hope this story gets the attention it deserves. This is really good story telling.
Lol. You think disney marvel will give this character or any character they have done in the past justice?
@@miketurner2095 Man, I doubt it. They may not do it right. Think Fox and Galactus.
It will but will be heavily watered down. Also we still have no ff4 or professor x avengers , hulk to actually speak of 🤷🏾♂️😂
It would be nice if he's introduced in the MCU in the same way. Like he has existed since the beginning and was involved in all the past events in the MCU but everyone had their mind wiped of his existence in the same way as this comic.
Movie?????
You know it's gonna be a good one when Rob comes on and he's extra hype and happy... lemme tell you sumtin maaaaan (Rob Voice)
like no one knew what you meant and as if anyone knows what your voice sounds like... typical brainless mainstream media fed sheeple
😅😅😅that alone got me buying the Karkoan era books
@@danielland3767 me too bro 😂
@@Stocky_The_Demi_God man I got $13 variant covers from HoX/PoX..I ain't never spent that money before.
I got 2nd & 3rd prints and still was looking for 1st prints up to X of Swords
It seems like he does that every video…
The hulk and sentry is such a great dynamic because they basically have the same struggle. I would love just a run on the two of them like Thor and Hyperion. End with an epic scene where the two except the truest form of their inner demon to overcome what no one else could. I want a panel with the void and the hulk essentially becoming the one below all.
Sentry 2000 will forever be my favorite comic. It's just perfect.
always loved the sentry as a character and thought there was so much to him. but sadly marvel have never really written him properly apart from a few one offs like this, but instead used him as almost like a plot device for writers if they have written themselves into a corner or to just make a villain look strong like knull. im hoping that with him being in thunderbolts that his popularity just rises in general so he gets more stories and features like the character actually deserves
Or they wrote him how they want, and you're just a whiney booty boiiii
When they merged Sentry with the Void, I thought maybe that would be the launching pad for some better stories or at least have him used more regularly. Instead, Marvel seems to have forgotten they even did it. And as much as I like Knull, I hated how they had Sentry get completely punked (a Sentry who somehow was no longer fused and was worried about the Void again?).
@@JJRegal4 So true. Composite Sentry would have trashed Knull the brick. For sure.
They could have used someone powerful for that plot device that wasn't out of Knull's league. PIS at it's worst.
@@JJRegal4 best. story.
The way hes written here it doesnt seem like they have the option to include him in much. The more he remembers who he is, the more he becomes the Sentry, the stronger the Void grows and the more lives get destroyed as a result.
Paul Jenkins did an amazing job and the art fits the story perfectly. 🤩
Agreed
I say spiderman could be the vehicle that brings the Sentry to the MCU. They could say when Doctor Strange cast the spell to make everyone forget spiderman it nullified the same spell that was used in the past to get people to forget the Sentry.
Don't do that...don't give me hope.
MCU w another blonde male? Not happening
@@luffysleftnipple69yearsago . . . . .
that might actually be a fact in present times. . . .
@@luffysleftnipple69yearsago ….????
@@echo_z319 think w your brain
You have to think as well just how powerful the sentry's will power at this point to forget is, the fact he remembered to a degree smiled then carried on as if the memory didn't appear shows how strong and desperate he is to keep the void coming back again it's heartbreaking he can never be his true self again and to do so means the annihilation of all existence.
Very well put there good sir. I agree.
Rob please continue this series. When the Sentry is written well the character is amazing, and amazing. During dark reign there are some great moments were he struggles with the Void. I love the bit with Bullseye and and his wife.
I remember reading this story YEARS ago and really enjoyed it. I feel that Marvel has yet to find a writer that can actually do something really special with the Sentry like this story. He's been written so much as scared of himself, which was a departure from his portrayal here. He has the potential to be a Superman / Venom hybrid in terms of character, but it hasn't really been hit on. I'm still holding out hope Marvel finds a writer that can do something special and Canon with him.
I say Amen to that
I seem to recall not liking sentry’s origin story but must have forgotten cuz I think it’s pretty creative this time around.
😂😂😂😂
Robert Reynolds might possibly be favorite marvel character.. the dichotomy is perfect
This is easily now my favorite Marvel comic.
man i love your content I procrastinated two days to watch this. waiting for the perfect time.
In order to beat the Sentry, you must forget the Sentry… love this comic
If they ever bring the Sentry into the MCU this is the story they need to follow. It needs to be done right.
Never showed up in other movies*
@@tubtubsablubblubs3996 he actually did but everyone forgot
@@RenegadeStriker7 LMFAO nice one
He is coming to MCU however he will be nerfed and of course changed for the worst they began with race swapping Sentry
Beyonder will make an appearance for Battle World and Secret Wars and it won’t be either without Beyonder yet MCU is also it own thing and not true to the comics interpretations he may exist in their universe or won’t, it’s rumored that Kang, Sentry and Doom will be in those upcoming stages however I suspect that Marvel Zombies will possibly show up as well and they perhaps will have stuck with God Emperor Dooms secret wars and battle world
Sentry shouldn’t even be in those advents because he wasn’t introduced at the time while Beyonder was
For this to happen every Marvel live action and animated studios or brands to have assisted those series or films will have to come to agreement to make the big marvel multiversal crossover to possibly happen for those advents
That perhaps will be a gateways to opening a DC and Marvel crossover since Beyonder effected both Marvel and DC omniverses with these advents of crises, secret wars, battle worlds etc and made big influential impact to both Marvel and DC even creators of Marvel and DC confirmed that to be true.
The influence is also connected to the white wave across both Marvel as well DC and Annihilus wave of negative zones of Marvel that Annihilus was amped up by.
The Sentry.. The Apex Super Hero! amazing story and that respect the Hulk and the others all have for The Sentry speaks volumes. There are a few things to clear up about the Sentry.
1. The Sentry is the most human, superhero, and he symbolizes the very human soul, the consciousness and unconsciousness and his power is limitless, like how our consciousness functions in reality.
2. The Void represents Carl Jung's concept of the shadow which is not separate, but a part of the one soul, the repressed negative side of us, our immoral side, that stays hidden and projects onto the world around us, destroying it (when we do bad things)
3. The Void is raw and without restriction but is ultimately NOT more powerful than The Sentry. It just so happens that like humans, to integrate our shadow and gain total control over those negative expressions, is quite difficult. It just depends on where The Sentry is on his path to self discovery / realization. (MORE SOLID WRITING IS NEEDED, NOT PATHETIC PLOT DEVICES TO MAKE SOMEONE LOOK STRONG WITH A SIMPLE DEFEAT OF THE SENTRY...KNULL...)
4. The Sentry, with integration of his shadow, facing him, not turning away, weakens the Void and empowers himself further, limitlessly. ( Like us humans)
5. Every superhero and human in existence has their void, their Shadow, The Void just shows how powerful the Sentry is, which also pales in comparison to The Sentry with steps taken to integrate the Void. (They did show this concept in another epic comic, insane power)
Ahh Rob, still throwing in your adam brashear comment... lol bro, blue marvel is 2nd strongest, say it. Even in BM's OWN comic, with s story written for him, The Sentry stops him.
The Sentry at times is weaker than the Void or this series goes overboard to keep the Void contained.
If your number 2 is correct the Void pales in comparison to the Knull, he is the first life to exist in sheer darkness not just the fractions of darkness that exist in the soul.
In comics the Apex can't exist in unopposable terms, never in one character. Trying to establish it as fact is the folly of the Blue Marvel.
Nah fully realized BM would be equal to merged sentry. Even in BM comics we saw sentry defeat him we also saw sentry single handily lose to a villain BM defeated on his own
I read number 1 and knew the rest was gonna be bs sorry but the most human superhero gotta go to Spider-Man Batman or Superman
Wow, I'm floored, this story is amazing! Made me fall in love with The Sentry, I hope they could somehow continue this story.
This comic is Shutter Island with superheroes.
Boy! I hope whoever is writing the Fantastic Four movie hears this. This plot would be great to introduce us to the first family. It’ll also explain why we never seen them until now
I've never heard this story. I've heard of the Sentry and like a Cliffs notes version of it but never the full thing. Thank you.
Dark Avengers adds more to his story as well... Won't spoil it in case you've never read it and will, but yeah, he gets more fleshed out in that story
This story is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. To be able to take a character like the Sentry....who is basically Marvels Copy of Superman.....and make him, his origin and just overall character so complex and fascinating is nothing short of LEGENDARY
Marvels copy of Superman is Hyperion
Sentry is just marvels attempt to mimic the power of Superman
@@Beastly_Geniusnah I don’t agree with either while it’s possible super man may have been the inspiration I definitely feel like sentry has stepped out of that Column of Superman copies
@@coreymorris4630I agree... Hell, he's even human. Hyperion is a carbon copy of Supes
One of my favorite reads I listened to it like 4 times, I’ve been listening to you since I was a kid and your voice is always the best for getting the characters feelings out much love man
Imagine if it made a movie like that
That was outSTANDING!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This was actually amazing! Great job Rob!
Such a beautifully drawn comic
I always loved the marvel knights stories. They are the best. The realism and altruism that depicts them are so insanely good. A shame that marvel isn't able to pick up the slack and pop out some of these kind of stories. 'For this are the kind of stories we want. Glorious
In high school i was learning to navigate a pretty extreme case of bipolar. Made it kinda tough to get close to people. I loved this book and the sentrys comics. It was always a big inspiration to me that no matter how hard it got there would be a way to get through it
Keep on going it can only get better my partner has this and it must be hard for her I've read up on the condition and it's no joke,I am just happy she knows I'll always be here until my last breath, stay blessed buddy !
Thank you for doing these.......i drive alot and your part of my roster, i dont have the time to read all these comics and you bring to me stories that would take a lifetime to put together
So this is where you been for the past 11 days lmao thank you for the video homie! 😂😂
I loved hearing this one tonight. It reminded me a lot of Total Recall. It was awesome to hear a sentry version comic book styling to that story typing.
One of my favorite stories. Read it a few years back and loved it, glad to see it completed!
These have been some AMAZING stories uploaded lately❤
Sentry is honestly one of my favorite heroes/ characters. I always hated superman but Sentry was a real cool over powered guy but with real issues. OP done right! Made him much more relatable!
Thanks for covering this. I had a great time letting you go ^ ^
You do amazing job telling these stories!
I love this story, but it sorely reminds me of when the sentry and the void merge and then we never see anything come out of that. I haven’t been able to find anything at least.
That look on the last panel, what a story.
These are the highs Marvel comics are capable of. Always loved this story
To be fair, whenever Marvel created spinoff prints like "Marvel KNIGHTS" and "Marvel MAX" they open their comics to much more creative and much more mature storytelling.
Sentry's 6 part mini series origin is one of the greatest among them
I hope they make the sentry/the void as powerful as possible in the thunderbolts film.
its the mcu. They will depower him to make the film make sense if he IS fighting anyone.
@@ROSPoetry1 and he’s 100x weaker than captain marvel
Is he confirmed to appear in the thunderbolts film? Or is this just speculation?
@@axelnova123 I believe it was confirmed
@@Gibby9594 Damn... Welp, there go my dreams of having a movie based on the Sentry 2000 comics. Sad day.
Even The Hulk fears The Void.
Tbf that was Savage Hulk he has the mind of a child. I remember at one point he was afraid of the dark.
@@polketex5043 well The Void started breaking the hulk's bones....but yeah ok cool.
@@Wyndamn your point? Far worse than happened to Hulk.
@@polketex5043 The Hulk getting his bones broken by The Void, that's the point ☝️☝️☝️.
@@Wyndamn The Hulk has had his head cut completely off, burned alive and eaten alive.
Hulk regenerates
Still think a blue marvel and sentry book set in like the 60s as a buddy cop book would be awesome.
Maybe the 80s, & Sentry is asking Blue Marvel to give society another chance... because he needs someone to help keep Void from killing it 🤔
That was sweet. Thank you!
This is 🔥 bro great job.
Another great story narration of a great story. 👍
Yes rob !! The sentry is my favorite man keep up the good work ! 🎉
This shouldve been a movie in 2007 08'... Instant classic.
100%
Since we talked about The Sentry, I can't wait for the next Ghost Rider comic continuing after issue #1.
The sentry was just lonely and it’s sad that this was the solution for him.
Lol I'd actually never heard the word "Pussilanimous" before. That's too funny. I would've skipped it too, though 😅
Man I love the hints of the void when they remember the Sentry. I started collecting comics during the New Avengers.
Great story. I wish the comic book writers would respect the Sentry's history. With that said, would be nice to see a proper rematch with the King in Black...
Yep
Knull was SUPER DUPER OP , The Sentry maybe could've put up a better fight and not get torn in half..... maybe 🤔🤔🤔.
Sentry wasn’t gonna beat knull in a venom story
Before that point, The Sentry had merged w Void (red & black suit/black hair) then dropped both Captain Marvel & Thor w a backslap before voluntarily secluding himself off world
The writer ignored everything for that fight w Knull & had an out of nowhere retro Sentry & then Void get wrecked by something not even strong as Phoenix force. Oh well
Had to stop before I spoil the whole thing, this sounds awesome. Gotta go do some reading now, thanks Rob 😁👍
2:43 Looking at this now, you could see the connection between The Void and Symbiote God Knull, which is a cool way of continuity.
Then, whoever wrote that monstrosity called “king in Black” turned the Sentry/the Void into a Nerf ball like what’s been happening to Galactus lately and got his butt kicked and one shot to defeat.
Horrible 😂
This is a great story. This should be made into a movie without a doubt
I nearly forgot about this comic, pun not intended. What I enjoyed the most was the flashbacks, the way it showed Sentry through the ages as he helped other heroes. How each hero forgot and remembered their idol/friend. The utter terror as the Void descends and they don't stand a chance. It's a bittersweet story in the end. Almost like Batman and Joker how two foes compliment each other. The tragedy that he cannot be the hero he wanted to be, and yet the greatest that never was.
I’ve been wanting to read more sentry for so long. Especially now since he got announced in the thunderbolts
This was amazing. Thank you for covering it.
Loved the art in this
I love this art style!
Man... This really was a great story. Wow!
Back to back to back bangers I was having with drawls mane why the hiatus u needed a break 🤷🏾♂️
This story is just so fucking good. It'll be cool to see Sentry on the big screen if the rumors are true, but I would do anything for just a really really well done one off mini series that just encompasses this story in its entirety.
This story is one of my all time favs. It’s a masterclass in storytelling and I cannot wait to see the Marvel adaptation of Sentry in the Thunderbolts
That was so awesome I need more Sentry
dude the art for dr strang specifically is beautiful here!
This is how Sentry needs to be written.
I remember the first time I read this when I was younger. Sentry is legit one of the best self contained stories. Everything that happened after this story was a travesty and disservice to the character.
Rob in my opinion, I think The Sentry in the MCU could be the best marvel movie ever made, if written right. But the MCU needs to build up to this. This video, this story, is really good. The concept of a Hero and Villain in one being. The idea of The Void, thinking about it is scary AF! Talk about a sacrifice, the character of Robert Renolds is sadder than The Hulk, what a Fate.
Never miss an episode. Maaaan. Man!
This episode got me one quarter across the state of Mississippi.
Pretty cool when writers do stories that are more about things like this then just normal "I'm a good guy, you bad guy now we fight" comics.
Videos like these give me hope that eventually someday, the sentry gets the treatment respect dedication, and attention he deserves. He could be the flagship of marvel if done right, the ultimate hero
And Void the Ultimate Villian
I remember when I first red this comic and I was so enamored. But I genuinely hate how they keep writing bad stories for him after this story line.
The title was misleading. Where was the fight with Hulk, Spiderman and Dr Strange.
I love the ones that end on a bitter sweet note
Hulk's powers since it comes from the Green Door are usually above most cosmic entities' pay grades. :D
It was sweet to see Hulk remember Sentry.
This story is about sacrifice and what a hero is willing to give up to save everyone.
I also loved the Tony remembered him too.
This story is top tier
I love how few people talk about the fact that he's a blond blue-eyed uber-mench who literally has lightning shaped SS on his back 😂
Haha I think that's why they changed it
I've always loved this story. I only wish MARVEL wouldn't connect all these serums to Dr. Erskine's formula. If his formula was perfect and couldn't be replicated,how is Sentry so ultimately broken? A classic character they let get screwed up and had to create another broken character to replace him. Blue Marvel that they're also wasting. Great video Rob.
I'm hoping they're just using Thunderbolts to set up for an actual Sentry film or something. It would be pretty clever for them to not reveal the film as a part of any "phase" and just spring it out of nowhere and act like it was announced a long time ago or something. Meh, they're probably just going to waste the character entirely, though. At least they picked a good actor, so maybe we can count on the aesthetic being faithful, if nothing else.
More stories involving the sentry plz!
Now I don't know about anybody else, but I was just waiting for The cliffhanger moment to drop.
I love Tony’s reaction. He was on Bob’s side the whole time. That’s why I was for Stark on Civil war and of course Secret Empire the best Comic story run in history! Better then Batman’s runs Superman’s runs anyone!
I love the art for this Sentry comic
I love this story please make more like this
This actually made me shed a tear
Good lord that was awesome
The Sentry: Reborn. Chap. 2: Remembrance, Resurgence, Return, Reverting, Recollecting Hope. Which Devils are the most frightening and dangerous to battle against? The ones we face on a regular basis, or the ones that are always fought from within ourselves?
This was actually pretty good
Wow. This was great
Brillant brilliant story line. its like a circle going on and on.
MOAR SENTRY!!!
GIVE ME ALL THE SENTRY!!!!
MAKE US WHOLE
Ya it was cool. All of sudden we find out the VOID was the real deal in that Knull story. When Knull takes it out of the Sentry. Thought it was pretty cool.
Question.i find myself goin back watching you old video that are my favorites I just wonder do you go back and check out your old videos.
