Like many others the announcement of Eternals came as a complete shock, being characters with a sparse comic book history outside of their original creator Jack 'King' Kirby, despite their very interesting mythos. So naturally like many others I was very curious to see what direction the film would take.
Add into that the mixed critical reception, and I found I had plenty to say about the film and their comic book origins, leading to this episode.
