I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

Eternals #1 - Marvel
Ok, about 30 to 33 years ago, Jack Kirby was a creative genius. He created the Celestials, the Deviants, and the Eternals. It was his way of explaining creation. Well now we come to find out that the Deviants and the Eternals are still living among us. Some of them just can't remember who they are. Apparently some of the Deviants can remember though because they're still coming after the Eternals whether they know who the are or not. So that's what this issue was about, introducing us to some of the players. We meet Ikaris, Sprite, Sersei, Thena and our main character Makkari. We also meet some of the deviants, but not by name. They're mostly staying to the shadows and have their own agenda. So Ikaris is trying to explain to Makkari, or Mark Curry as he is now known, what has happened before and what his true nature is. Of course being a man of medicine and science, he doesn't believe him. He just thinks he's delusional of scizophrenic. And thus our story is set to unfold. If anyone can handle this epic event it's Neil Gaiman. And John Romita Jr.'s pencils are incredible. This is a 6 issue mini series and it should be fantastic.
