That's the problem. Marvel didn't validate that power...ever. Of course you'll never please everyone, with anything for that matter, but you can measure a ratio of those who liked something versus those who didn't. Through that logic, the various polls and threads on the topic of the Sentry character have revealed that those who actually like him are definitely in the minority.

Does that mean I think you shouldn't like him as a result? No not at all. However, it does make me believe that since so many seem to share the opinion that he was unreasonably overpowered and rather uninteresting as an individual character with very few if any redeeming qualities, that perhaps he would have been better off as simply this Void personification of his evil half as a permanent villain and abandon his Sentry- continuity altering insult to years of story telling- Hero character.

From what I remember in his solo series, it was actually suggested that he may have been a Beyonder type entity from an alternate universe that found it's way into Robert's body through that serum that gave him that lame power I've chastised enough already. If that was truly what was intended...I'd prefer they built more off of that and explored that aspect further. Just my take.
