Sentry is back! He's a pretty intriguing hero/villain for me despite a lot of people hating him. Here, we have the famous Jeff Lemire at the helm to try and make it worth reading. Jeff Lemire is a hit with creator own stuff, but big 2? Questionable. So let's see...
Sentry, or I should say Bob, is trying to live a normal life. Being a line cook, going into his own mind to be Sentry for a bit and keep the void at bay, and just trying to be normal. That is until his machine that was built by Tony and Doctor Strange is taken from him and he can't go into his mind to calm himself. This leaves him breaking apart, and after a new foe emerges, the Sentry finally awakens in a way we've never seen before.
Good: The art is fantastic. Very stylish and the fights look AWESOME. There's big epic moments that truly showcase the art in the best ways. The struggle for poor Bob to try to be a decent person is both enticing to watch and sad. However, by the end you are more scared of him than anything. The betrayal cuts deep for long time Sentry readers and leads up to a interesting twist on the character.
Bad: The ending is a big "what comes next!?" type ending in which case we don't know and it can be frustrating when nothing else is announced.
Overall, a great little mini-series. I think with some love, a writer can make a super cool tale of Sentry. He's basically a broken mess of a guy trying to be Superman with a super evil side. I love it. A 4 out of 5 for this one.
