This year Adam's gone with a theme of drawing the Sentinels characters in various pulpy horror tropes.

We have so far:

It's just something about Argent's features, he looks particularly good doing the whole Anne Rice/Victorian Gothic aesthetic thing.

Lotsa new ones today:

Cursed Corsair Captain Cosmic: x.com

Oni Mister Fixer: x.com

Slasher Expatriette: x.com

Occultist Nightmist: x.com

My faves so far are Argent, Tachyon, and now Cosmic and Nightmist.

I feel like it’s gotta be a variety of stories/universes considering we’re now shifting between various time eras.

I kind of doubt the Golden Age Captain Cosmic looked anything like that. That was based off the Captain Cosmic we know.   If we get a Golden Age source book for the RPG that’s likely to be the place we’d see that Captain Cosmic first.  

PH
Phantom5613
2018-10-15 17:28 UTC

I would say Golden Age Captain Cosmic most likely looked like the guy on the covers of old 'Space Busters' books, or the guy on 'Space Cadet' by Tom Corbett. Square jaw, well kept short hair with maybe a well placed 'Clark Kent' curl, clean shaven with a cleft chin, muscular frame: the 'pinical of masculinity' as it was considered back then.

Edit: I like how Slasher Expat's mask is cracked around her eye, showing she's most likely been attacked and blinded in one eye by one of her victims before she killed them.

I feel like Idealist will follow the veins of Unity and Setback in being less monstrous, more spooky.  So my money is on Idealist as the kid from the Twilight Zone Episode “It’s a Good Life.”  Clip here for those who don’t know every episode of the classic anthology series off the back of their head, like me:

He said he’s going to skip Naturalist because he feels like he already used up the idea he’d want to apply, but otherwise I think it’s just Luminary, La Comodora, Akash’Thriya, and Stuntman left, with two slots left (since he did Lifeline on the same art stream today but probably won’t release the sketch until tomorrow).
