Fictional character biography

Sentry-459

The Sentries' main purpose is to guard military outposts and depots throughout the Kree empire. Sentry-459 accompanies a Kree scientific party that journeys to Earth to experiment on sub-humans, which in turn creates the Inhumans. When the Kree leave Earth, Sentry-459 remains to monitor Inhuman progress. Sentry-459 remains inert but observing until it is activated by the Fantastic Four, who fight it to a standstill. Considering itself defeated when the Fantastic Four escape, the Sentry sends a signal to the Kree before deactivating.[1]

Sentry-459 is later reactivated by Yon-Rogg, who sends it to attack his subordinate Mar-Vell.[2][3][4][5] In Blackwulf (1995), Sentry-459 joins the Underground Legion, but is destroyed by Ronan the Accuser.[6][7][8] In Damage Control (2023), Sentry-459 resurfaces and joins the team Heavy Metal alongside Jocasta, Machine Man, and TESS-One.[9][10]

Other Kree Sentries

Sentry-9168

Another Sentry - Sentry-9168 - is encountered by the Fantastic Four on the Moon. This Sentry is smaller than traditional Sentries, being the size of a human, and is programmed to protect the remains of a hidden Kree city on the Moon. The Fantastic Four battle and destroy the Sentry via a remote destruct mechanism.[11]

Sentry-213

Sentry-213 was stationed in an unmanned supply depot/surveillance post on Uranus. It is destroyed by a group of Eternals led by Uranos, sparking a war with the Kree.[12]

Sentry-372

This Sentry only appears once, and battles several members of the Imperial Guard before being damaged by the West Coast Avengers. The Sentry then self-destructs and destroys the outpost it was guarding.[13]

Sentry-571

Sentry-571 aided the Kree when their "Lunatic Legion" attacked Earth. It was defeated by Iron Man.[14]
