And that's it for this storytime. The story does technically continue but it's exclusively focused on the Inhumans.
Bentley Clark

Daniel Watson
So Thanos basically came from bad stock
Tyler Hughes
Ralph macchio? Any relation to the karate kid?
Josiah Ramirez
Why do the Titan Eternals live so long if they were not in the kronos accident?
Dominic Williams
Yep.
Anthony Walker
no
Isaac Powell
Why the fuck is anyone reading Eternals comics not written and drawn by Kirby? Ignore thread.
Aaron Reyes
Because after Alars leaves Earth () he reached the colony Uranos established on Titan (). He found a single survivor named Sui-San. They fell in love and became the Adam and Eve for all Titan Eternals.
Grayson Perry
That explains some things. And he may have been a product of inbreeding
Kevin Hughes

Carson Foster
Ideally the Eternals were set to be their own continuity universe but Marvel pushed to integrate them into the 616 proper. My question is how different really are the Eternals and Inhumans?
Austin Sanders
>starship "hovers some 50 feet from the ground"
>Celestials "each twice a thousand feet in height"
The math and physic to that is a bit tricky.
Angel Martin
They weren’t shoehorned in as a replacement for Mutants by an idiot.
Hudson Lewis
Celestials fucked with early humans to create the eternals, humans (who would eventually also become mutants due to celestial tampering) and also deviants (basically niggers)
the eternals are supposed to be basically gods, have your typical strong superhero movesets plus telepathy, force fields, etc... not really important
the celestials also fucked with early Skrulls creating Eternal Skrulls (only one left) normal skrulls (they don't matter), deviant skrulls (became the main race we know), and someone else who doesn't matter
Deviant Skrulls decided to stop being niggers and would fuck with early Kree giving them advanced tech, Kree decided to rebel against the deviants for not being niggers anymore.
Kree decided to fuck with humans so they can create a race of warriors who can infiltrate other alien planets as spies
to recap
Celestials --> Eternals
Celestials --> Skrulls --> Kree --> Inhumans
Henry Robinson
eternals get their powers from space gods
inhumans get their powers from having dormant alien dna that gets released when they smoke magic crystal

SHIELD is in like issue 3 my user
Jack Wilson
Eternals=Celestials-made artificial gods
Inhumans=Kree-made artificial mutants
Chase Martinez
Another thing to note is the intent. The Inhumans were made by kree for two reaons. #1 to fight their wars. #2 The kree had been cut off from evolution so they hoped to get back in the game by recreating the experiments done on them. The Eternals were made so they can protect humans long enough for humans to beat the horde on behalf of the celestials and keep what ever else the celestials have planned going.
Asher Miller
I was reading the Kirby Museum that in Kirby's margins the Inhumans were made for trade.
Adam Morgan

Gabriel Cooper
The new History of the marvel universe left out Celestials creating the X-gene
Blake Hill
they just keep trying to push this Starbrand thing don't they
Jaxon Ward
>So to educate you filthy movie casuals before next year
being elitist about capeshit in any form is very unbecoming user
Carter Reed
>Uranus is Supreme
Kinky
Juan Johnson
That's just Aaron, ruining the New Universe with his dumb bullshit. You can tell it's shoehorned because it just doesn't fit within all the stuff Waid researched.
Ethan Gutierrez
Ive never read any Eternals stuff until this thread. So are they still around on Earth in the current books? Just minding their own business in their big secret city Olypmus? How have they not populated the entire planet in the however million years its been since they were created and granted immortality?
Charles Kelly
>So are they still around on Earth in the current books?
No, Aaron the hack killed them all off-screen for no good reason. Until then yeah, they were just chilling, albeit in comic limbo. Last time they were seen was in All-New Invaders a few years ago.
>How have they not populated the entire planet in the however million years its been since they were created and granted immortality?
Because that's not how population growth works. Longevity has been proven to be a primary cause for population plateauing.
Thomas Lee
>kree and skrull have existed for a gorillion years with technology and advanced societies and everything, and they are still just a bunch of dumb space assholes
Asher Nelson
What was the first issue that said the Celestrials created the x-gene?
Cooper Williams
why were OP's stories published in What If?
Landon Young
It's right here: Except it's not directly said, merely implied.
Parker Cox
Gruenwald wanted to expand on these ideas and to synergize the Eternals into 616, but didn't know of a better way to do it aside from backup stories. They're still very canon because later on the Eternals help the Inhumans move from their island to the Himalayas, in what's known as Attilan I (before the Moon base).
Juan Hughes
>spoonfeeding
Ryder Morales
yeah, i've read most of eternals i think
kirby's original series, thor, avengers, later series
but didn't even know about these
Adam Parker
I wonder how Disney is going to handle the Deviants.
It just comes across as so unwoke
Christopher Lee
They're just monsters living in undersea caverns. Stop trying to force politics into everything.
Daniel Stewart
Why not post good Eternal moments instead of just the history lesson the MCU will certainly ignore?
Jace Ward
Yeah it’s kind of buried in the What If series but it was a time where there were great stories in the most randomist of Marvel titles.
Kevin Brooks
> but it was a time where there were great stories in the most randomist of Marvel titles.
Other examples?
Adam Powell
It left out a lot of things
Gabriel Miller
So where did Zeus even come from? Where did any of the gods come from? Are they all just aliens from other worlds?
