Nothing against literally anyone else, but no writer has really gotten Marvel’s The Sentry as well as his co-creator, Paul Jenkins. And happily Jenkins will return to Marvel for the first time in over a decade for a brand-new, four-issue series alongside artist Christian Rosado.
“I am so proud and excited to be returning to Marvel after a long hiatus,” Jenkins said via press release. “Even better, I get to work once again on the character I created – one who means such a lot to so many people – the Golden Guardian of Good himself: the Sentry! Words can’t express the thanks I owe to my amazing editors, Mark Paniccia and Lauren Amaro, as well as C.B. Cebulski and the entire Marvel crew. I’m back, True Believers!”
If you’re not familiar, the whole conceit of The Sentry is that he’s a regular man named Bob Reynolds who can turn into The Sentry, a hero with the power of a million exploding suns. He battles his arch enemy, The Void… Only the twist is, he is also The Void. The best takes on The Sentry (read: Jenkins takes) have played with different aspects of mental illness as it impacts the character(s). So will this one do so too, particularly after so many other things have happened since the last time Jenkins wrote him?
You can find out when The Sentry #1 hits stores on March 18, 2026 with covers by Alex Maleev, Francesco Mobili, CAFU, and C.F. Villa. Check them out, and the synopsis and solicit info, below.
