Avengers 4: 8 Clues For What Happens Next

4. The Eternals Make An Entrance

Yes, the Eternals might not be the most famous Marvel group going, but they are a Jack Kirby creation, meaning they're more than worthy of your time.

Though the group have somewhat paled in comparison to the Fourth World saga Kirby crafted at DC, they're no less visually impressive. One of them is even said to have a role in Avengers 4, and with DC moving ahead with the New Gods IP with A Wrinkle in Time director Ava DuVernay, it makes sense why Marvel would want to match their competitors beat for beat.

Juicier, perhaps, are Jim Starlin's comments on the matter. The creator is said to be receiving greater credit for the fourth Avengers film, and with the creator having had a hand in creating several Eternals, rumours surrounding an appearance from Kronos - a seasoned time-traveller in the comics - don't seem all that out of order.
