I picked this up firstly because it was recommended, and secondly (or predominantly) becaus Neil Gaiman is the author. I have scarcily devoted any time to reading Neil Gaiman's graphic novels (where as I love his novels) so I thought I would give this one a go!
I'm not familiar with the original Marvel comic series of the Eternals and I think that this actually helps when reading this book. The reader gets to discover the hidden histories of these ancient characters as the characters themselves realise their lives are not all they appear to be. It is a cleverly unfolding story and each issue provides equal measure of questions and answers to peak your interest.
This book contains the collected first seven issues and it does very much feel like a beginning and back story to greater things to come - I look forward to the action really starting!

Filtered Visions
Their Visions, My Filter.
I love books, I'm growing a love for movies, some tv shows are worth more than the 'made for tv' banner. I want to collect my thoughts, and share ideas with others - I'm interested in how we all interpret things differently, based on our own experiences of life. I value the dedication it has taken for someone to create, and want to get more out of their creations. Taking time to think, write and discuss adds a whole new layer to how we experience the creative media.
