    Hyperion

    Character » Hyperion appears in 667 issues.

    Hyperion is Marvel's first Superman pastiche. He is most often associated with the super-team known as the Squadron Supreme and was an Avenger at one point. Though he is one of many active versions across a myriad of alternate universes, Hyperion is still one of the mightiest super-humans in the Marvel Multiverse.

    Hyperion..better then Sentry?

    @Forever:  Hyperion from 31916 universe is by far the best out of all the superman clones... I really feel him and Zarda from 31916 should join the 616 continuity and go to war with the Sentry and Gladiator!!!! I feel it would make a great battle.

    Honestly, these days The Sentry is the most powerful sufferer of down's syndrome in the Marvel Universe. I really hate it because when he was introduced in the Avengers originally I was super pumped at the potential of his character. He has virtually never had an outing where he wasn't subjected to ludicrous PIS. Last issue of Young Avengers Wiccan + minor help seemingly banished him from physical reality and thats hardly the worst he's had.
     
    I don't think Hyperion is better but I'd certainly rather read about him. He gets to actually do things. Sentry never does anything, ever and generally acts with the mind of a child. Check out his dialog with Norman in Dark Avengers for more info. It's really sad and a waste of a very powerful and hugely hyped character.

    Hyperion plays up the super powered jerk role well. He's Superman on his period. King Hyperion and his escapade with the Thunderbolts recently proves that. I wish he got more comic panel.

    Hyperion is definitely better than the Sentry. He's better than Gladiator, too.

    Hyperion is Marvel's best approximation/pastiche/equivalent of Superman. No question. No doubt.

    @Mr. Punisher: he didnt get beat by thor,hyperion squashed him like an insect. He even lift the hammer and smashed thor with it.The only reason thor won the figth is because hyperion got stripped of half of is power.

    Well Sentry seemed as if he was playing with Hulk. I think Sentry has the potential to surpass Glactaus. His power set is beyond that of Supes. Hyperion seems to be powerful but on Sentry's level.

    I liked Sentry at first. I thought his history was a good test in retconning creatively. But the writing started to get chaotic and his charm left. Hyperion is better though. Supreme Power was great and the old Squadron Supreme comic was great.

    It says it on his page..."Hyperion is the leader and the physically most powerful member of Earth-712's preeminent super-team, the Squadron Supreme. Hyperion is also the mightiest hero of his world. Although he's a Marvel Comics superhero, Hyperion is a pastiche of DC Comic's Superman." So Hyperion FTW : )

    Blue marvel

    Quote-

    He also easily stopped a meteorite the size of Arkansas from striking Earth using his great strength.

    The Watcher said that Blue Marvel could have "split the moon in two" with one blow. He has also survived a 1 megaton atomic bomb exploding in his hands without suffering any type of damage. He has shown to have energy manipulation powers using his anti-matter. He can release concentrated beams from his hands or an omni-direction blasts throughout his body. He has also been shown to create power shields strong enough to deflect a charging attacks from King Hyperion In a short time, the Blue Marvel has established himself as a premier powerhouseintheMarveluniverse. Prince Namor himself stated that after the Blue Marvel's long hiatus that only the Hulk and Thor have hit him as hard.

    Premier - Merriam-Webster Online

    Sentry is more powerful, but Hyperion is the better superclone (and, IMHO, the more likeable character).

    I enjoy Sentry more because of his massive complexity. Gladiator comes next, due to his unique confidence-based power-amp. Hyperion just seems like he's thrown in whenever a powerhouse is needing a beatdown.

    Hyperion is in my top 5 Marvel characters and I love the Supreme Power run at least the #1 to #18 issues.

    Really love to see him as a hero in the main universe with his own book.

    When you say that Hyperion is better, do you mean that he is more like Superman than Sentry? If so, sure he is.

    No hate for the Sentry as a concept, I just think it's fallen flat. Maybe if with all that power he was more of a boss and less of a b***h then people gave him more attention.

    Lets see a character that was inspired from Miracle Man but has flaws such as mental illness which makes him unique.

    Vs a guy Marvel repeatedly stated is a parody of Superman and everything abour him is like Superman.

    Sentry easy... At least Sentry isn't a cliche.
