Thanks to the official synopsis for Eternals, we know that the heroes have been living on Earth for more than 7,000 years. Due to this disturbance, certain members of our heroes unite in order to alert others with wiped memories to remember the past and take on a new threat. However, that all changes when the Deviants wake up the Dreaming Celestial. The story is more cohesive than anything that came before and it also finds the heroes on Earth, unaware of their superhero powers. We also know that the movie will be the most sci-fi out of the whole MCU, so Neil Gaiman and John Romita Jr.'s Eternals story from 2006 seems like an obvious jumping off point. With that being said, there isn't a whole lot of information about their upcoming Eternals movie, aside from the fact that it stars Richard Madden, Angelina Jolie, Kit Harington, Don Lee, Gemma Chan, and Kumail Nanjiani While stories are based on certain comic book runs, they're usually a combination of stories to make for better storytelling on the screen, while making sure that comic book fans don't know exactly what's going to happen. Marvel Studios has been great with their big screen adaptations from the source material.

In addition to getting some non-comic reading MCU fans up to speed about the mysterious characters, the special edition could very well tie into the movie's plot, though it won't be giving too much away. The Marvel Cinematic Universe journey hits theaters at the end of the year. Marvel Comics is pushing the release forward of the stories by Gaiman and Romita for a July release. A rushed hardcover edition of Neil Gaiman and John Romita Jr.'s Eternals may hint at the upcoming movie's storyline.
