Eternals #4 - Marvel

This is a fantastic book. First of all we have Neil Gaiman writing it. The complexity and detail of his stories is just phenomonal. Then we have John Romita Jr. on art. Unfortunately, he was never one of my favorites. Until, he started doing some of these prestige format mini-series over the last few years. You can tell he really takes his time with this and puts in a lot of effort. This is some of his best work to date. Love it! Then of course you have to give props to Rick Berry, who's been turning in some phenomonal covers. Basically what's happening is that Sprite, the young Eternal, actually he's been stuck at the age of 11 for about a million years, is tired of being 11 and he's seriously bored. He brainwashed Zuras and Ajak, over the course of 100 years with his illusions, then woke them up and took them to San Francisco to talk to the Dreaming Celestial. When they got there they created a uni-mind, but with the Celestial's power, it amplified everything Sprite could do. So he basically re-wrote reality. He turned all the Eternals into humans, he made himself a film/rock/TV star, and he made himself human so he could age. But now that he's human, I think he's misses his power, so he tricks Makkari into taking him down to where the Celestial sleeps, to try to tap into the power again. Ikaris, who has been regenerated after his atomization, is now tuned into everything and without illusion. So he has gone to New Jersey to get Thena, and then go to SF to stop Sprite from waking the Celestial. Because he knows if he does, it'll be the end of the world. As we know it. Sorry couldn't resist. Anyways, fantastic book.
