Oh, look at that, the Sentinels got subverted.
What a shock.
Seriously, why did they think that would work? How often has a Sentinel every accomplished anything?

Though actually the bigger twist might be the suggestion that every robot in the Marvel U seems to share the exact same OS. That seems a tall order.
Couldn't they have just said Kang has future tech? That would've made more sense.
(Works for Time Lords...)

Ooh, and I see the Avengers have the latest space-suits, the ones that require them to only wear a helmet which somehow protects the rest of them from exposure to space.

I like to think Marvel bots all run Ultron's OS; its only slightly less evil than Windows

Sentinel's only seem to work right in future timelines... and even then, 90% of the time they seem to kill off the human masters and then take over.

How often has a Sentinel every accomplished anything?

The 15 million dead of Genosha (or however many it was) might want a word with you about that.

[scorntx]

That was just a rare statistical outlier. Apart from that, when has a Sentinel ever accomplished anything?

[cainofdreaming]

January - February 1981 slash undefined point in future.

Nimrod did pretty well on a couple of occasions too.

[lizard_of_aus]

Yes, but apart from Genosha, Nimrod and Days of Future Past, what have the Sentinels ever done for us?!

[zachbeacon]

Issuing proclamations from a floating couch and casually strolling in space; Kang is a boss

[zachbeacon]

I know its a hologram but optics are important

[dcbanacek]

As Mega-Mind pointed out, the difference between a villain and a SUPER-villain is... PRESENTATION!!

Kang: "Sentinels? How cute. Be right back."
--Goes back in time, does the Victor Timely thing, returns 30 seconds later.--
"Yeah, about that..."

I can't believe that someone actually remembered this moment between the Master and Carol, finally using the former to enact his revenge on Carol for this. About the only highlight of Civil War II for me.

When first heard Victor Timely I thought it was some sort of pun on Timely comics turns out Kang did time travel as one Victor Timely.

Oh how I love these moments of Kang blowing up the UN while sitting on his future couch and the old slowmo walk with his personal entourage of Sentinels.
