* FightingAShadow: When Kingo's energy blast catches the [[AsianFoxSpirit Kumiho]] (actually a Deviant) preying on 12th century Korea, it vanishes without a body. Sprite confirms that it wasn't an illusion, and Bu-Sik Kim describes it as one of the 'tails' of the Kumiho, just an aspect of the true being.

* HumanResources: Discussed. Bu-Sik Kim mentions that the [[AsianFoxSpirit Kumiho]] gains its power and immortality from eating human livers. It's later shown that [[spoiler:it's a Deviant drawing power from a bead charged with cosmic energy]], but Sprite still uses it an an excuse for liver comments and jokes about foie gras.
-->'''Sprite:''' I didn't know the human liver could do such a thing. That's amazing.

[[redirect:ComicBook/TheEternals]]''Eternals: The 500 Year War'' is an Creator/InfinityComics webcomic from Creator/MarvelComics, a limited series based around the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse version of Marvel's [[ComicBook/TheEternals Eternals]].

Arishem the Celestial created the Eternals and sent them to Earth thousands of years ago, ordering them to protect it from the Deviants. But by the 16th century, the Deviants seem to be defeated and extinct, and the immortal Eternals are no longer occupied by their task. A plan for one last sweep of Earth reunites the group in their old home of Babylon, where they collect their belongings from their long-hidden spaceship, the Domo, and prepare to go their separate ways.

Sorting through some of the items in the ship brings back old memories - and the Eternals' illusionist, Sprite, takes the opportunity to tell stories about how they were acquired.

Each issue of the series focuses on a different setting and [[RotatingProtagonist different Eternals]], with a TimeSkip between each tale.

Creator/DanAbnett writes the first and last issues, which contain the FramingStory, with art by Geoffo and color art by Matt Milla. Each of the other issues has its own creative team, typically creators connected to the culture or region the issue is set in.

As with Marvel's other Infinity Comic webcomics, it's a single-column vertically scrolling comic that's designed to be readable on a phone screen, rather than using a traditional comic book approach to panels and pages.

As an Infinity Comic, the series is initially only available via the Marvel Unlimited app.

----
!!''Eternals: The 500 Year War'' provides examples of:
* HowWeGotHere: The story starts on Babylon, with the Eternals gathered to retrieve their possessions from the Domo, then leads into flashback tales.
* InfiniteCanvas: As with Marvel's other Infinity Comics, it’s presented in the vertical scrolling variant. Each issue is a single long page, with one column of panels.
* RotatingProtagonist: Each issue (apart from the first and last) focuses on one or two of the Eternals, on a mission away from the others.
