New Sentinel is up!

Awesome! I really like the bluepill articles, the classifieds, and Aunt Elle. Really great stuff LESIG has put together - it gives me a distinct image of the way the sentinel was before Chadwick gave up on it. I also liked seeing an articl...

[9.3.5] "He wouldn't just kill her like that" - Vector - 4/2/08

Neo and his predecessors, perhaps. Seems like Halborn had a rather "If I can't have it, then no one will" mentality there. Though, the Oracle's suggestion that he wasn't ready yet could lead us to believe that he will one day be ready for...

The last one didn't look like it was going to suck either. But it still did. If they can pull it off, the Hulk story could be pretty *CENSORED* cool. But, well, it's just got to be done right... I'll reserve judgment until I see it.
