The Sentry Inspired Dog Names

For all of Robert's faults and shortcomings, you have to feel for the guy. The man struggled with drug addiction, was homeless for a time, and is currently a widowed hero. A number of Robert's troubles were brought about by his own actions and inactions but there have also been a number of tragedies that have happened to The Sentry for seemingly no apparent reason. And again, Robert has to fight against an evil, homicidal force of nature on a more or less regular basis - giving a new meaning to the phrase "fighting your personal demons." Through it all, however, Robert's dog Normie has been by his side. Through thick and thin, good times and bad, Normie has helped Robert cope with his best and worst life experiences.

Even without having any innate powers, Normie is still an extraordinary dog. Robert's powers are the result of the Golden Sentry Serum - a chemical compound that's based on the Super Soldier Serum that empowers Captain America. Unlike the Serum that Steve Rogers uses, the Golden Sentry Serum had to be used multiple times by Robert to have any sort of effect. This opened the floodgates for Robert to overuse the Serum and he became addicted to it in time. Rob's addiction negatively impacted his marriage with his wife Lindy, as well as any and every other relationship he had with other heroes. Robert eventually had a really bad bender that altered his life in the worst way possible.

Due to his drug abuse, Robert found himself alone, homeless, and down-and-out with only Normie by his side. We eventually learn that Robert abused the Serum so much, he essentially made himself an amnesiac for a time; he forgot that he ever was the legendary Sentry and forgot that he was a member of the Avengers. Moreover, Robert forgot that he had formed close personal bonds with Mr. Fantastic, Spider-Man, Iron Man, and many other heroes. Normie stayed by his side nonetheless and helped him get back on his feet. In time, Robert mended things with Lindy and eventually gained the willpower to use the Golden Sentry Serum responsibly. 

Normie was rewarded for his efforts as well; as fate would have it, the dog was given a dosage of the Golden Sentry Serum when his life was in jeopardy. Normie gained the same sorts of powers that Robert possessed and he began fighting crime and saving lives as the canine hero watchdog!
