The powerful Eternals stand divided as they race to awaken the missing members of their race! On one side, the power of Ikaris and Thena, guided by Makaari and his connection with the dreaming Celestial! On the other, the dark lord of Vorozheika, the dreaded Druig, finding his lost kin through means unknown! But on whose side does Ajak, the celestial's former liaison, fall? Plus: appearances by the Invincible Iron Man and The Order!
Maybe that last issue was just a misstart, as the Knaufs and Acuna got their legs under them. I hope that's what it was, because on the strength of this issue, I want to keep reading again. I hate flip-flopping like this, but there is a dramatic difference between these first two issues. The momentum is back. The characters are defined. The plot is moving forward briskly.

This is still good. The writing and art work. But there is a needling in the back of my mind that makes me notice how slow the pace is right now.
Definitely improvement from last issue. Either Acuna’s art greatly improved or I’m just used to it now lmao. The scenes where the Dreaming Celestial explains to Makarri everything about the universe are beautiful
