    I’m sure we’ll get an answer from Gillen, and it won’t be some lazy slap on. He really knows his stuff.

    He sure seems to have a lot carefully planned out

    Gilgamesh or one of the new Eternals he's making.

    I feel like he did to make death a more pressing issue for them along with the machine being messed up.

    I think MCU will start with Zuras death as well.

    Idk if anyone else feels this way, but reading these two issues feels a lot like Hickman’s Ultimates, mixed with his Avengers.

    Yep I expect as much
    I was a fan of the eternal for most of my life, I even own their original series, I’m pretty sure the movie is gonna change a lot of the stuff established in the early issues that I really like, the comics have been doing just that lately starting with neil gaiman’s version, I guess change is inevitable especially for such obscure corner of the marvel universe so I resolved to just accept it.

    I hope Gillen finds a purpose for the Eternals that will draw other writers to begin using them more often. They could even have an event based around them titled Deviation.

    considering how they died in Avengers run, I'm not surprised.

    not feeling this run tbh.

    At a guess, someone realised whatever file-save of Thanos was stored in the exclusion to kill Zuras (he doesn’t seem to have thought Ikaris went down too easy, so he’s probably mighty enough (and Zuras appears to have wounded him in the process) and/or the keepers of the machine as a distraction

    After all, with the machine disrupted and Thanos loose, whose going to notice if another Excluded is free?

    I had fanwanked some time ago that the Eternals were the actual end-goal of the Celestial tinkering ages ago, and that their ability to fuse into a Uni-Mind was the keystone to it. Every so many millenia the Celestials would swing by again to check if soup is ready, or the batch has gotten tainted and needs to be thrown out. When they deem it 'done,' the Eternals will fuse into their final Uni-Mind and assume their final form, as a newborn Celestial (since Celestial's don't do the 'mommy and daddy love each other very much' thing). Generally the planet that has gestated them dies in the process, but gotta break some eggs and all that.

    The big drama would be Earth's Eternals refusing to ascend, knowing that to do so would be the death-sentence to all the other people on Earth, and, for their part, the Celestials accept this choice, because they don't *want* Celestials that don't want to be Celestials in their group.

    And so the Eternals would have to find their way in a world that they've been groomed to grow beyond, with that destiny no longer hanging over their heads, wondering where to go now, with their endless future wide open and up to them to discover...

    Well we saw most of the Eternals previous death in the pages of Avengers. We saw their bodies there.

    I had a story in mind that the Deviants were really the children of the first Eternals, and because of their deformed features were cast out like the monstrous titans of myth, and one of their subterranean settlements would be called Tartarus.
