* HumanAlien: Unlike the comic where Eternals are an ancient human subspecies that got uplifted, the Eternals here are aliens and look entirely human.

--->'''Druig:''' Well, that was ''very'' moving...

* TwoferTokenMinority: Phastos and his husband Ben both count. Neither is straight, and Phastos is a black Eternal while his husband Ben is arab (he encourages Phastos to save the world with a quote from his mother that begins "Habibi...").

* {{Composite Character}}: In the comics is was Sersi that suffered from Mahd Wyry. Here Thena has the condition.

* CelebrityParadox: [[Recap/LukeCage2016S2E10TheMainIngredient The tenth episode]] of the second season of ''Series/LukeCage'' confirms that ''Series/GameOfThrones'' exists in the MCU. Ikaris' actor, Richard Madden, plays Robb Stark in the show.

* {{No Celebrities Were Harmed}}: Kumail Nanjiani stated that Kingo's role as a Handsome Muscular Bollywood actor is inspired by Hrithik Roshan

* TheTeamBenefactor: He bankrolls the team's globe-trotting since as a Bollywood megastar he has his own private jet.

* RaceLift: The character was originally depicted as a fair-skinned Greek man in the comics, while this version is portrayed by a woman of black and Mexican descent. Though the actress resembles the female Eternal Titanis even to the point of beinf almost speechless.

* {{Composite Character}}: Her super speed, name and red colouring is taken from Comics Makkari. Whilst her actress' Black Mexican Americsn heritage and muteness makes her extemely similar to the Eternal Titanis who is of African descent amd has only spoken one word. Her Deafness also mirrors the time Gilgamesh was blind.

* BoobsOfSteel: One of the fighters of the Eternals and played by the voluptuous Angelina Jolie.

* CripplingOverspecialization: In the comics, Eternals manipulate cosmic energy and so many of them can mostly do the same things as each other though individuals may specialize (most Eternals can transform matter to some degree, but none are as good as Sersi). Their powers are unique and someone like Ikaris is notable because he's got more than one ability (including being the only flyer of the group).

* RingsofActivation: Their powers are accompanied by a light display of golden rings across their bodies.

* CreatingLife: Downplayed, but early on Sersi transmutes a bus into a cloud of flower petals, showing she can transmute inorganic matter into organic matter, her main restriction being her inability to transmute ''sentient'' matter. [[spoiler:However, her powers develop throughout the film allowing her to overcome this restriction, and she at one transmutes a boulder into a flock of birds. She later transmutes Sprite from a synthetic construct into an actual human.]]

* CreatingLife: [[spoiler:Downplayed, but in a blink-and-you-miss-it moment Sersi transmutes a boulder into a flock of birds to save herself, showing that she can transmute inanimate matter into living creatures. She later transmutes Sprite from a synthetic construct into an actual human.]]

* {{Adaptational Relationship Change}}: Comics Kingo had a sword forged by Phastos and the two are good friends. The MCU versions barely interact in the films and it is Sersi that forges a sword that Sprite later uses.

* {{Asian Airhead}}: Averted since he is not really Asian as he is an Artificial Lifeform. But he does come across as an Airheaded.
