The Sentinel Comics Beauty Contest

In Twitch chat recently, TakeWalker and I were discussing how, since former Hollywood's Favorite Pretty Boy Ambuscade has suffered a slight facial mishap after OblivAeon, we both wondered: Who would be the current contenders for Best Looking People in the Sentinels Universe?

(We essentially both had the same thought that it might be amusing to discuss who everyone thought was cute in the Sentinelsverse but weren't sure how folks would react to such a discussion, so he said I should post the thread and I said only if I can say you made me do it and he said deal, so here we are.)

In universe, would Benchmark be in the running? 

I personally consider Cursed Acolyte to be super hot.

With Citizen Summer being a close second, also quite hot.

Ok my top 5 cute guys :

1) Argent Adept who is basically a pretty boy

2) Legacy who is well muscled without being over the top

3) Benchmark who could be higher once we see his face

4) The Contract for his facial structure

5)  Ra who is exotic

Honourable mention to Setback who has hugability

5 top cute girls

1) sky scraper - tall and well proportioned ,exoctic,presumably has a cute accent

2) Unity she has a cute face

3) Expatriette who is basically a model

4) The operative who has a unique look I find

5) Beacon cause of the smile plus big hair combination

Honourable mention to Visionary who would be number one with a bullet if she had nice hair

 

 

Ah good. :D

The funny thing is, I thought about posting a thread like this, but I had to think really hard about the subject. I've just never put much consideration into it until now!

Like, I guess Unity is super-cute? And the Matriarch has that "gothy bad girl" thing going on. Going completely by looks, Miss Information is, uh, pretty wow in that unitard. Mercy. She's just, y'know, completely insane. :B

But Sky-Scraper is the most adorable (even more than Haka!) She is perfect.

And though I am no expert on the subject, I think Ambuscade (pre-Oblivaeon) wins the "prettiest man" award. :B Just look at the card art on his Letters Page episode.

Though if personality is your thing, you really can't beat Setback. I mean, you just can't.

Guise was already the most beautiful.  Even Baron Blade knows he is amazing.  

I agree with Theta Sigma that in-universe Benchmark would probably be the new It Boy, going by stuff from the Letters Page.

Makes me wonder how many heroes have groupies and their pics featured in teenybopper and other celebrity glamour shot magazines a lot.

But yeah, TakeWalker was like "I don't have a list" and I was like "*shifty eyes* I do..."

I agree that Ambuscade definitely deserved the "Hollywood's Favorite Pretty Boy" award, even if he's a jerk.

Powerhound, I counter you by saying I think Baron Blade himself is pretty cute. I have a bit of a soft spot for mad scientist types in general.

With Argent Adept, "redheaded pretty boy musician" is just not a description you can argue with, I feel.

Bunker actually has a rather pretty face, the times we see him out of his suit. And "clean cut military man" is often a big attractiveness factor in general.

I actually think Captain Cosmic is pretty cute; I like the whole Cuddly Space Dad vibe and accents are always a plus. Especially when he's wearing that boss jacket in his PW variant.

And Setback is basically a human puppy dog both in looks and personality. Even though I'm not usually into ditzy guys, I still think if I could pick any guy in the Sentinelsverse to date, it would be Setback.

Picking out which ladies are cute is a bit more awkward for me because most of them are teenagers or not much older, and I am... not. :P

But Nightmist is quite pretty; especially check out her "normal" self on the artwork for Regression Darts.

I will say I would almost certainly have a crush on the Matriarch when I was younger; she's so elegantly pretty.

Sky-Scraper's probably my most fave Sentinels lady, though. I agree she's so adorable and has a sweet smile. :D

If you like scars sure but in that case Ansel has plenty of scars post OblivAeon.  

PROFANE ZEALOT 

 

Not sure why I would think that

So after a day think about this i think i can call my choices

In the Women's competition

Winner: Harpy; hairstyle, fashion sense, a nice smile, and regal figure make her a sure thing for the top spot 

First runner up: Ermine; great hair style with the pixie cut, interresting fashion choices, & unique and michivous eyes, (besides anyone with that much talent with rope...)

Second Runner up: Kismet;  Scarlet highlights in her hair, a killer smile smile, makes her lucky number 3 (maybe a bit too litterally on that last point but still)

 

So i have a type, don't judge me. Moving on to

 

the Men's category

Winner: Ra!, Tall, muscular, looks good with a beard. all adds up to Hot (heh)

First Runner Up: Benchmark; again, Tall, T frame, strong jawline, and a bit of confindence never hurts

Second Runner Up: Haka, He bakes little pies for kids, how could he NOT be on the list...he's just so adorable.

For the women: (no particular order)

Tachyon, Nightmist and KNYFE are probably my top three.

For the Men: (no particular order)

Legacy, Ambuscade/Stuntman and Setback

 

 

 

But let's be honest, the hottest denizens of the Multiverse are Ra, the Magmarians, and Citizen Adam Hammer

 

We all know the objectively most attractive, amazing, and all around great characters are Citizens Hammer and Anvil.

 

Subjectively, I'll say La Capitan.

There is a slight aesthetic level difference between a few fashionable bad guy scars and having your face melted off.

Also Baron Blade looks totally boss in his aristocratic cyborg RPG getup. I love that look.

@Ronway and @UXM: Clearly one perk to joining the Cult of Gloom is the fine looking people who are already members. :wink: And wearing a badass cloak is another thing that ups your attractiveness factor, of course.

Also I can't believe I forgot to mention the Chronoist, where I feel like Adam must have had a goal of sitting down to draw the prettiest guy he could come up with.

It's kind of interesting the heavy ratio of feminine/pretty guys to fewer of the more ruggedly handsome types in the game. There's basically off the top of my head Chrono-Ranger, Haka, Mainstay, Citizen Anvil, and possibly Fright Train for the latter archetype.

Also I don't know if Greazer is traditionally handsome, exactly, but he sure has bucketloads of style.

One that surprised me was Kismet in the Video Game. Interestingly enough, her defeat art looks really good to me. Her make up and hair are toned down, and she's not wearing what amount to torn strips of clothe, so her natural good looks come through really well.

 

Also, we should defintely mention Ryan's features. When we can see them, he's got a very chiseled look, classical Roman-esque perhaps?

 

Finally, since we've mentioned so many people and their good looks, I feel I should also point out Fem Luminary. She's got a bit of a punk-ish hair-do which is cool, but the power gauntlet is what sells it. Power Gauntlets always do well on the runway.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the Chronoist.

He makes everyone else look bad. D:

No thats Guise.  

Never has the phrase "cut like a Greek god" seemed more literal.

Thinking about alternative universe versions of people, we have only seen one picture of her but Female Haka is a handsome woman.

I'm going to bet that it's the fact she is in handcuffs that makes the defeat art look really good to you.  :wink:

Take another look at Plague Rat's defeat art and come back with your opinions on that.

Yes! Arataki is really pretty! :smiley:
