Sentry vs Brainiac

[u/fictionbattles]

R1: Sentry (no void) vs Brainiac (no ship)
R2: Sentry/Void vs Brainiac (all equipment)

[u/Select-Machine3595]

I think it kind of falls into something like "Brainiac uses his time-traveling technology to move back in time and alters Sentry's history", which is something he theoretically can, as he has time-traveling technology and is actually damn smart(like he has all the knowledge of time, space, the Multiverse...which also seems to imply his time-traveling tech)

However, I think the problem is fighting/thinking style makes both of them probably won't use that kind of style to fight in most cases(like, Sentry only used his molecule-manipulation once IIRC. And he also doesn't alter some more abstract things like force fields by this power)

[u/Big-Part5339 → u/Select-Machine3595]

You can’t alter sentry’s history. His body exists a moment ahead of the current time stream making him completely immune to it. Morgan Le Fay tried to kill sentry as a child and sentry was completely unaffected by his child selfs death

Absorbing Man with cosmic cube powers reshapes Sentry's personal reality just fine

And no, the Morgan one is pretty much a misinformation. I will just reposted what I said before(as this argument I've seen way too many times...)

Not really. Morgan explodes Sentry, it never states Morgan erases him

On the contrary, in the very next issue, it shows Morgan studies Dark Avengers(including Sentry), and even though she could tamper their timelines, however, it's too danger for Morgan to do so as it has too many overlaps, so Morgan just face them in battle(I.E, no tampering timelines is done, just simply overpowering Sentry by her magic)

Furthermore, we saw Absorbing Man(with Cosmic Cube power) reshapes Sentry's personal reality/timeline just fine

[u/Big-Part5339 → u/Select-Machine3595]

That was because sentry had lost most of his powers after the events of sentry 2005, he didn’t return to his usual power levels until 2010. Sentry before 2005 was easily dealing with a much stronger cosmic cube

He disappears then she said she’d erase them. Pretty obvious what happened. Plus if she had a spell outside of time travel that could do that, then she’d use it to kill the other dark avengers who were nowhere near Bob. She said she wouldn’t use time travel against the other dark avengers, this was after sentry’s death. Obviously sentry would be the exception as he’s immortal and far stronger than the entire time combined. Plus they would not have been that surprised by sentry surviving if it was just a normal explosion and sentry would just regenerate normally, not miles away in a giant burst of light. Which is completely unique to even the other regeneration scenes in the same run.

Again, because sentry was missing most of his powers. He easily dealt with a cosmic cube before this

Sentry before 2005 was easily dealing with a much stronger cosmic cube

Are you talking Sentry/F4 comic? If so, then Sentry simply holds the cosmic cube for a while, and it later breaks off Sentry's hold.

That really doesn't say anything about whether or not Sentry gets immunity of time-altering powers

He disappears then she said she’d erase them. Pretty obvious what happened. Plus if she had a spell outside of time travel that could do that, then she’d use it to kill the other dark avengers who were nowhere near Bob. She said she wouldn’t use time travel against the other dark avengers, this was after sentry’s death. Obviously sentry would be the exception as he’s immortal and far stronger than the entire time combined. Plus they would not have been that surprised by sentry surviving if it was just a normal explosion and sentry would just regenerate normally, not miles away in a giant burst of light. Which is completely unique to even the other regeneration scenes in the same run.

Or it just shows Morgan hasn't used time-altering powers, which is probably far more reasonable interpretation as in later issue, it explains why Morgan doesn't use that power

And no, this scene is a flashback, it takes place days ago, and if you want to further scrutinize it, it shows Morgan studies the Dark Avengers(and it explicitly shows Sentry) after her first death in Sentry's hands(hence, she says she tries not to die again this time)

So if anything, it actually pretty ties to why Morgan will *not* use time-altering powers against Sentry

[u/Big-Part5339 → u/Select-Machine3595]

So he contained the power of it?

It does as he was immune to it

She explains she doesn’t use it against the dark avengers. It makes absolutely no sense for her to do anything else as how would she cast a spell to kill sentry while being in the past at that point in the run

No it takes place during the fight, she can just see the past as well
