Deconstructing Comics #823: Jack Kirby’s ‘Eternals’ #17-19 — Lots O’ Ikaris (Or Ikarus?)

by Erik Amaya

We’ve reached the end of Jack Kirby‘s Eternals series. Sure, it was a weird series, but introducing a Hulk robot apparently did little for the sales numbers. How did Kirby wrap things up? For a series that featured so many characters (though not as many as the freakin’ movie, which we’ll get to soon!), he took the odd step of giving us an Ikaris solo adventure with a Celestial-in-the-machine ending. Not really what we wanted from a series that we initially found enjoyable. Tim and Emmet discuss the series wrap-up.
