Eternals (3rd Series)

    (Marvel, 2006-2007)

It starts slow but builds momentum in Neil Gaiman and John Romita Jr.’s restoration of the cosmically empowered Eternals, but one expects that. Lots of origins and unraveling history as the Eternals shake off their assumed identities and remember their real names and powers.

What is unexpected is the touch of satire running through the book. Gaiman certainly has a humorous streak, but it’s not usually seen mimicking reality TV with a self-aware irony. This issue revolves around setting the various Eternals up, while pivoting around Ikaris’ attempts to revive Makkari from the amnesiac blur of his medical students’ existence. It doesn’t go very well for him, as the Deviants descend to nip the Eternals’ blooming awareness in the bud.
