Marvel Comics' Eternals are an ancient, cosmic race who live on Saturn's moon Titan. If Marvel Studios embraces all the cosmos-spanning wonder of the group's comic-book appearances in the upcoming Eternals movie, viewers have some technicolor treats in store. Here's the lowdown on the Eternals.
The Eternals were created by comics legend Jack Kirby in 1976. They're an ancient race of superbeings who have long protected Earth from evil, specifically the rule of the treacherous Deviants. The original Eternals series tells a meticulously plotted tale and was created with an ending in mind. Unfortunately, Kirby never reached his intended finale.

The Eternals was axed at issue #19 before Kirby had a chance to wrap up all of the existing plot threads. It lingered unfinished for a while until writers Roy Thomas and Mark Gruenwald used a storyline that ended with Thor #301 to wrap up the tale of the Eternals' cosmic crusade. We're glad the story ended up resolved, but we'll always be wondering what it could have looked like if Kirby had a chance to finish the series as he intended.

While their name was on the cover, the Eternals arguably weren't the breakout stars of their own book. That was the Celestials, the "Space Gods" that created the Eternals, the Deviants, and, it turns out, pretty much all sentient life in the Marvel Universe.
