The sentient power...

A guy talks about Superman:
He's the savior. The one who will heal us all.
The sentient power. What power is that? Clairvoyance?
  

Top answer

Sentient just means 'conscious'. The adjective is not describing his power; it is describing him. He is a conscious (living, feeling) Power.

actually the sentient power refers to clark kent's position as the *** of Earth. The Sentient Power is another word for ***, thus foreshadowing Superman's role as the saviour of the planet
