    Great. Its settled then.

    Some people like it some people won't.

    That doesn't mean that we shouldn't or can't dissect what makes a story element or plot good or bad from a heroic perspective. Not to mention be able
    to highlight that to our own personal tastes.

    That being said while I really appreciate the eternals, and in general think they are a pretty dang interesting Sub-race. This particular development actually means in a way that the
    deviants and eternals aren't that far apart, and its interesting that they realize it too and try to join up.

    The deviant insight on the Celestial machination and agenda might shed a lot of light on their shared experience.

    Don't know if that's good or bad, but its... something. Maybe all change is good change.
    My priority is enjoying and supporting stories of timeless heroism and conflict.
    Everything else is irrelevant.

    Which "horrible version" and why?

    Which is the better version and why?

    What is "edgy and controversial" about Gillen's Eternals?

    Doesn't that make her the same as MCU Mantis?

    I remember comic Sersi being a lot more powerful and proficient than it sounds like she'll be in the movie. I guess because Thena and now femMakkari are the fighters? I dunno.

    imagine having this cool character capable of matter manipulation,

    you can't wait to see her in the movieverse just to savor all the awesome special effects,

    .......they turn her into an empath

    I'm not liking the sound of this to be honest. Also, did whoever wrote the article ever read a Sersi comic? She is known more for her trans mutation powers not telepathy! So the change is going to be even bigger than the article makes out.

    We have known they were mindwiping Eternals and using backup personalities since the first issue with Spirite as well as any Eternals with paternal/maternal relationships. As for the "revelation", it's not as "shocking" as Gillen intended if you know anything about global mortality rate.

    Whatever the intention I feel like it is not adding anything of value, it actually managed to make the eternals even more unrelatable if it ever was possible
