    Sentry #1 kicks off a new tale about power and how people react differently when they encounter that power. The issue almost feels like a two-in-one, mixing a detective mystery with an action packed superhero narrative that gives a fantastic overall look of today's Marvel universe. Read Full Review

    Bob Reynolds is dead, Long live Bob Reynolds. The next chapter of the legacy of the Sentry begins with a striking return. Loos slow-building plot along with Zagarias stunning visuals allows ample time for the audience to connect to the events plying out. The mystery is only just beginning and this will be one not to miss on New Comic Book Day. Read Full Review

    AIPT - David Brooke Dec 6, 2023

    The Sentry #1 is a good start to a start that explores what might happen if average people were given incredible superhuman powers. It's mostly a strong character study; there's a lot of potential here to explore the human condition. Read Full Review

    Sentry #1 isn't what you'd expect but comes to the table incorporating a ton of pieces within the Marvel Landscape right now while coupling those elements with mystery and diversity. Sure, we don't get Bob Reynolds yet. However, I think this story is going to be an imaginative way of bringing back a character that's been gone for a long time according to comic book standards.

    Overall, Sentry #1 is an exciting debut which is a potboiler with superheroes. The story by Loo is action packed. The art by the creative team is gorgeous. Altogether, a story that will absolutely renew interest in the character before his big screen debut. Read Full Review

    It's all not bad, but also doesn't really stand out so far. It's entertaining and what types of characters gain the Sentry's power is interesting, but overall, we're here for the end result. I'm just not completely sure the lead up is exciting enough to get us there. Read Full Review

    For now, the series lacks much flavor, but Marvel Comics has time to cement a tone as The Sentry continues. Read Full Review
