Eternals Origins

Eternals was first revealed by Jack Kirby at Marvel Comics in The Eternals # 1 Comics in July 1976. Marvel’s Fantastic Four, Thor and Captain America much-discussed characters are due to him. Although Jack Kirby has also worked for DC Comics. He produced comics such as The New Gods and The Forth World for DC. The character of Zack Snyder’s Justice League villain Darkseid is his brainchild.

According to comics books, when the Celestials came to Earth millions of years ago, they experimented DNA of apes with their cosmic chemistry. But due to disturbances in the experiment,three new species were born. These species were, ‘Humans’ ‘Deviants’ and ‘Eternals’. Humans i.e. we who had no power. Deviants were the ones who became monsters after experiments, such as Thanos. As for the Eternals, they looked like Humans, but they were immortals. The Eternals had divine powers, who were given the responsibility of protecting the Humans by the Celestials. In a way, the people of the earth started worshiping him as God. Ego has been considered one of the most powerful celestials, which has brought us into James Gunn’s Guardian of the Galaxy Vol. 2.

As time passed, there was a rift between the Eternals. Here two factions of Eternals are formed, one faction headed by Uranos. He thinks that he should rule humanity, whose responsibility was given to him by the Celestials. Kronos, who leads the other faction on the other hand, thinks the opposite. He is in favor of protecting and well being of humanity. In such a situation it is natural to have a confrontation. Meanwhile, the civil war breaks out, and Kronos wins. The defeated Uranos have to leave the Earth and settle their civilization on the planet Titan.
