New Gods / Eternals

[bretmaverick2]

I’ve been re reading Kirby’s original Fourth World books. And something hit me right off the bat.

Even though it was long before the MCU published Kirby’s Eternals, many times in the NEW GODS, characters often make references to Eternals. Obviously not the one that appeared at Marvel but it would have been a solid Kirby crossover event back in the day.

I would say it was because Kirby repeated several of his ideas he started on New Gods in Eternals. Because even for how creative Kirby was, I doubt he could made a crossover with a title before beign created.
Or could he???

If I remember right, part of Kirby's inspiration for The Eternals was a book popular back in the 1970s called Chariots of the Gods?
