This weekend, a brand new Marvel Misfits team will associate (as much as some may be reluctant to the idea) to train the “Thunderbolts *” and the chances they tear the MCU, a new one is quite high. Composed of assassins, thieves and former sleeping agents, they are certainly a force with which it is necessary to count. Well, in addition to bob, perhaps.

A character at which the release of the film did not what to do briefly is alluding is Bob / Robert Reynolds, also known as Sentry (played by Lewis Pullman, who replaced Steven Yeun after having separated from the project). Designed to fill the gap left by the Avengers, which have not met since the events of “Avengers: Endgame”, the sentry is the superforce which becomes uncontrollable, letting the holder team meet and try to stop it. But what kind of force will he face, and what part of the original power of the sentry of comics is making its way in the MCU?
Well, just like its iteration of comics, there is really not a lot of bob can’t Do, and that is precisely why he has something to fear here and in the future for his possible reappearance in “Avengers: Doomsday” and whatever the side he will be when we find ourselves there. You see, our boy Bob is a complex scholarship holder with several sides for him, which we absolutely advise you not be face to face, unless you are satisfied to look at the void.

The sentry is Marvel’s response to Superman – just very broken
Beginning in her own comic strip in 2000, the sentry was a superhero who had all the basic capabilities but just as shiny as all the standard superheroes have. Blessed with the super force, the speed and the ability to fly, the sentry resembled Marvel’s response to the DC Superman. It was simply unstoppable, and with its transition to the Marvel cinematographic universe, things have not changed.

In the comics, the sentry is known to be held following some of the most powerful entities in the Marvel universe. Going with people like Thor, Hulk and Doctor Doom, there was even a brutal and memorable case where Bob clashed against Ares, the god of war, and torn the divinity in two. Over time, the Sentinel has even discovered new powers that he did not initially have, including molecularization, giving it the power to modify objects at the molecular level, and the psionic, which allow it to manipulate the reality itself.
The character’s film version is described in the film as “more powerful than all combined Avengers” and has so far developed a great strength, a speed, the ability to fly, potentially a kind of extra-sensory perception where it can anticipate where the ghost goes in tune and out of vision, and an apparent invulnerability. But if his comic strip counterpart opens the way to the live version more Powers, he could find himself in a privileged place on the battlefield for “Avengers: Doomsday”. The only concern is whether it will be able to maintain control, since, as powerful as Bob may be, another presence represents an even greater threat. The Bob’s subconscious and which just requires Bob’s darkest of Bob, the void, determined to cause chaos and disaster with a simple thought.

The emptiness is half of the sentry and a force to count with
With characters like Norman Osborn, Bruce Banner and Marc Spector, the Marvel universe is full of characters with divided identities, and one of the most terrifying is the disturbed alter-ego of Bob Reynolds, the void. The countertelity with the sentry, the void taunts Bob when it takes over, attracting it to a path of destruction which, if it is not retained, can destroy the universe. Its story is just as dark and mysterious as the threat it poses, since in the comics, it was alluded to what the void was present around 1600 BCE and could very well be the angel of death before hanging on to Bob. Such a title is suitable, given that one of the most despicable acts of the void in the comics was to kill more than a million civilians in Manhattan.

As we have already seen in the trailer, The Black Shadow definitely makes an appearance in “Thunderbolts *”, “apparently leaving people from a way that even Thanos could be impressed. How will Bob’s opposite identity fall aside the dangers to our heroes when they come back to” Avengers: Doomsday? ” Not a way to grasp them by itself.
“Thunderbolts *” is now in theaters.
