Eternals combines ideas from more than one period of the comics, so its source material is better read as a group than as one direct adaptation. Start with Eternals #1–19 and Annual #1 (1976), then compare it with Eternals #1–12 (2006). Reading the references alongside the movie makes it easier to see what the filmmakers retained, combined or reinvented for the screen.
