4.0

The eternals awake to a betrayer-murderer, Thanos in their midsts, and the more they pull on the thread, the more the usual suspects don’t make much sense. It’s a pretty quiet arc as it goes, but I liked the ending and the pacing just fine. It’s not a normal superhero story, but that’s one of the things that I felt made it work.
