Mehso-so

I really like the idea of resurrecting an old concept for a superhero into the modern canon. Even the premise is good: the man who once was the powerful hero, SENTRY, has only vague recollections of his past life, and all others have also forgotten him. As if he had been erased from memory. Unfortunately, the execution is lacking. The entire story over multiple issues is all build-up to a less-than-satisfying end game.
