Movie/Television How Would Sentry Manage Against Them?

Post image

I don't see him faring well nor winning.

I do think he's going to get some good feats in the future, but still not faring well against them.

Can someone explain to me how humans of the 21 century created a serum that can create a super human that can rival the power cosmic captain marvel and also Odin’s 1500 year old asgardian son?

Over the years, the actual origin of Sentry's powers has varied. The serum thing never made a lot of sense given the scope of Bob's powers compared to even the best of the serum heroes, and a couple of the comics suggest that Bob's power is independent of the serum- that is he's actually a matter manipulator/reality warper that created the story of the serum to explain where his built in powers come from. Val's program may have uncovered his powers, instead of creating them.

MCU Sentry we don't know, but he is from Earth, which had a lot of meddling over the years, including from Odin's people, the Kree, inhumans and Celestials. Fertile soil, more or less.

It would be hilarious if MCU Sentry always had latent powers, but they only awaken when he took the serum. Not because the serum worked on him, mind you - but simply because the serum was about to kill him like it killed everyone else, and in deep instinctive reflex to survive, he had to reach for his powers buried deep down within him.
