>So Sentry was the marvel version of superman?
Kind of but not really.

He has the invulnerability, super strength, super speed, and flight...and he wears a cape. So people immediately assume he's a Superman expy.

But in reality there are too many differences:
- Superman is a perfect man doing good, the Sentry is a flawed man trying to do good.
- Superman's biggest threats are external, the Sentry's biggest threats are internal.
- The Sentry weakness is his mental state, Superman's weaknesses are external (kryptonite, magic, red sunlight)
- The Sentry has a lot more powers than Superman: Psychic powers, reality bending, matter creation, and energy manipulation.

There's definitely some inspiration taken from Superman, but saying that Sentry isn't an original character is like saying that Superman isn't an original character (taking "inspiration" from pulp like Doc Savage, Gladiator, etc.)
