Don't forget Sentry being the likely "real Big Bad" in Thunderbolts, who will of course be facing down:
Discount Black Widow
Gender bent Taskmaster
Gender bent Ghost
Discount Captain America #4, aka US Agent who even just by the trailer gets humiliated by several of the aforementioned characters
Discount Captain America #1, aka Bucky who will also likely get humiliated at various times.
Discount Captain Amerika #7, aka Red Guardian, also likely to be again humilated as he was in the Black Widow film
It's going to be a shitshow and Sentry being one of Marvel's Superman pastiche characters, one of the white ones that is, will get beaten down by grrlboss characters who have barely any actual superpowers, barely any actual identities other than "we copied a more expensive character to cast so we didn't have to keep paying Scarlett Johanssen and Chris Evans money", and would in reality lose horribly to someone as overpowered as what Sentry is meant to be, which is Superman with schizophrenia that can literally manifest into a being called The Void that has the power to destroy the universe.
The characters Sentry has beaten in the comics:
Pretty much all of them, including literally tearing Ares literal God of War in half.
Characters Sentry has lost to:
Knull, the literal manifestation and primordial eldritch God of the Void, hence why Sentry/Void loses in what amounts to cosmic Rock-Paper-Scissors, that existed before reality came into being, who went on to not only kill multiple Celestials himself with his own hands, but with weapons he forged out of his own being that would later be known as [Venom] symbiotes, the very first of which turned out to be the Necrosword that Gorr later used to almost kill Thor and did use to kill multiple other deities in the Marvel universe because it was that much of a power increase over them.
Cosmic RPS is further employed when Knull himself is beaten by Venom using the Enigma Force, something that when used by an AU Spider-Man still failed when fighting The Inheritors which were "vampires" that fed off the life essences of animal powered totem characters such as Spider-Man. Unfortunately this included the Enigma Force that was more or less "pure life force" so Captain Universe Spider-Man despite having divine tier powers that lead to beating Knull get RPS's hard and killed.
Remember when some random girl boss foot soldier from wakanda, with no powers whatsoever, effortlessly defeated Bucky 1v1 by removing his arm? The same Bucky who fought multiple avengers to a draw in civil war?
The degree to which male characters are routinely humiliated in nu marvel and Star Wars is truly insane. Of course men and boys have checked out of these franchises. And the only women who enjoy watching insufferable girl bosses are single cat lady feminists.
Bucky got the playable final boss threatment after been unlocked.
OP as fuck as enemy, but nerfed to shit as a playable character.
Looking at you Gaia from Battle Arena Toshinden 1 and 2!
As much of a curbstomper as BAT 1 Gaia was, music and all, facing Sho the first time and realising his combat music was Toccata and Fugue in D minor made for a very memorable, if brief, "Oh, shit" moment.
TBF the arm was given to him by Wakanda, so knowing how to disarm him, pun intended, isn't too surprising.
