Fictional character biography

[edit]

Sentry-459

[edit]

The Sentries' main purpose is to stand guard over military outposts and depots throughout the Kree Empire. Sentry-459 accompanied a Kree scientific party that journeyed to Earth to experiment on sub-humans (which in turn created the Inhumans). When the Kree left Earth, Sentry-459 remained to monitor Inhuman progress, so that the Kree could later use them as a militia force. Sentry-459 remained inert but observing until activated by the superheroes the Fantastic Four, who fought it to a standstill. Considering itself defeated when the Fantastic Four escaped, the Sentry sent a signal to the Kree alerting them to the presence of meta-humans on Earth and then deactivated itself (the Kree Ronan the Accuser investigates the signal and battles the Fantastic Four soon after).[1]

The Sentry was then transported by the U.S. Army to Cape Canaveral, where it was reactivated by the Kree Colonel Yon-Rogg, the leader of the Kree expedition then investigating Earth. Yon-Rogg hoped the Sentry would kill the hero Captain Marvel, another member of expedition. Mar-Vell, however, managed to defeat it.[2]

Ronan the Accuser later reactivated the Sentry and used it in an attempt to reverse the course of evolution on Earth, but it was once again defeated by Mar-Vell.[3] The Kree agents attempt to retrieve the Sentry but are driven off by spy agency S.H.I.E.L.D. The Sentry was seen again when activated by the Super-Adaptoid, who used the robot as part of his team Heavy Metal in a bid to destroy the superhero team the Avengers.[4] It returned in the Blackwulf series, having been found by Ultron,[5] and joins the Underground Legion[6] but was eventually destroyed in the series finale.[7][8]

Other Kree Sentries

[edit]

Sentry-459 is not the only Kree Sentry of the Kree Empire. The following are also Kree Sentries:

Sentry-9168

[edit]

Another Sentry - designated 9168 - was encountered by the Fantastic Four on the Moon. Only six feet tall, this Sentry was programmed to prevent any space travelers from Earth from finding the remains of a hidden Kree city in the Blue Area of the Moon. The Fantastic Four battle and destroy the Sentry via a remote destruct mechanism.[9]

Sentry-213

[edit]

This 30-foot (9.1 m) tall Sentry was stationed in an unmanned supply depot/surveillance post on the planet Uranus. It was destroyed by a group of Eternals led by Uranos, sparking a war with the Kree.[10]

Sentry-372

[edit]

This Sentry only appears once, and battles several members of the Shi'ar Imperial Guard before being damaged by the West Coast Avengers. The Sentry then self-destructs and destroys the outpost it was guarding.[11]

Sentry-571

[edit]

This version aided the Kree when their "Lunatic Legion" attacked Earth. It was defeated by Iron Man.[12]
