Ajak and Makkari come face to face after having their reason for existence blowing up in their faces after learning about their actual origins. Are they able to reconcile with this shattering blow? Only the future will tell. Ajak finally gets some much needed character growth in this issue, and hopefully well see the further development down the road. Read Full Review

Introducing a huge spiritual struggle, Eternals: Celestial eschews the primary narrative to provide deep, rich context. Read Full Review

Eternals: Celestia #1 continues to expand upon the Eternals' new place in the Marvel Universe, serving as a meditation on the power of faith and how it can be used for good and ill. The ending promises more conflict between the Eternals and the Avengers, which could be one of the more interesting "heroes vs heroes" matchups in the right hands. Time will tell if this conflict comes to pass, but this is still a solid sci-fi story worth checking out. Read Full Review

I would recommend this one if you are a fan of the Eternals and hopefully more of the Avengers make an appearance in future entries. Read Full Review

Overall, Eternals: Celestia is good additional material for Gillens run if youve been following along. His script can be a little hard to follow if youre completely new with this complicated side of the Marvel Universe, but I think it gives you all the context and information you need as it goes along. Kei Zamas art is also very impressive here and very different from what Esad Ribi is doing in the main title. While Ribi excels at grandiose, painterly imagery, Zamas style allows more for smaller-scale character work that helps sell the gamut of emotions shared between Ajak and Makkari here.

Here, it's more apparent than ever those in publishing are transforming the comic characters to look and act like those on the film studio side of things. Read Full Review

Eternals: Celestia #1 is an underwhelming entry in Kieron Gillen's Eternals run. The story needlessly gender bends both Ajak and Makkari, pairs them up on a pilgrimage despite their bitter history, and the journey itself is woefully uneventful. There are no major conclusions reached in the characters' soul-searching, and while one idea is proposed in the story, the comic doesn't really explore it in detail. The only good thing in this comic is the art provided by Kei Zama and the colors by Matthew Wilson and that's about it. Read Full Review

This issue stitches a silk purse out of the sow's ear of Jason Aaron's Celestial canon, making it seem like a rational part of the current Eternals run. It also does some pretty nice character work on Ajak and Makkari, and the writing is entertainingly witty throughout. The art doesn't agree with my subjective taste, but I can admit it's very well done. This is another deeply satisfying supplementary issue to the new Eternals saga.

This is really good! I like how it gives more context to that Avengers arc that haphazardly killed the Eternals off for no good reason.

Very intriguing start with a great artist

Started off pretty crappu and then got pretty good by the end. Overall, enjoyable and I like the tie in to the avengers

This is the first Eternals issue from Gillen I don't like, I loved the art otherwise I would've rated it much lower.
