Eternals (Neil Gaiman V.s Jack Kirby)
The Eternals were created by Jack Kirby and made their first appearance in The Eternals #1 (July 1976).Titanian Eternals.
Recently, the Eternals have begun reappearing on Earth in Neil Gaiman's new take on the immortal beings. Most seem to have no memory of their own history and abilities, except Ikaris, and no records of their previous appearances remain. Apparently the Eternal known as Sprite, angered at having to remain an eleven year old and unable to grow any further, managed to induce collective amnesia on the Eternals as well as distort their perceptions of history. This can possibly be seen as Gaiman's attempt to retcon the characters; early stories portrayed most of the current generation of Eternals -- such as Ikaris and Thena -- as being "only" several tens of thousands of years old but Gaiman's run describes them as being closer to a million years old.
A group of deviants manage to kidnap Makkari, using him to awaken the Dreaming Celestial (the Celestial responsible for creating the Deviants, the act of which caused him to be punished by the rest of the Celestials to imprisonment inside Earth). Upon awakening, he decides to judge humanity. The Eternals, realizing that they cannot stop him, leave him be. The Eternals then embark on a quest to go and recruit the other members who have similarly forgotten their true selves due to Sprite's trickery.
I've both of them Jack Kirby and Neil Gaiman and it like night ,Kirby has the feel of 1960's si-fi , like " I robot " or "the Lense-men." but Neil Gaiman is like wreid trip like "Thru the looking glass."..other then that they both well written and are classics in there owin right.
Snooch to the booch .
