Although an abstract entity, Eternity is an anthropomorphic creature so he can form a body. That's the reason why Eternity has a galactic shape like the one you saw in Love and Thunder .


Eternity along with his brother, named Infinity, was born from the Big Bang process. Before Eternity and Infinity were born, there used to be only a single universe called First Firmament. For information, the First Firmament is the entity that created the Celestials and Aspirants. Tragically, the First Firmament was destroyed by the war between the two creations.


These fragments of the First Firmament then form a new being consisting of hundreds of universes, namely the Second Cosmos, which is the first multiverse . Each time it evolves, the Second Cosmos dies and is reborn up to six times. Well, all of these evolutionary processes reflect the birth of Eternity.

Unfortunately, Eon is told to be killed and the Entity replaces him with a new entity, namely Epoch. In some of the latest Marvel comic series, Entity is told to create other new children, including Now, Then, Explosion, and Gravitation.


Love and Thunder does not feature one of the children Eternity mentioned above. However, Eternity granted Gorr's request to resurrect Love, who was Gorr's son. Indirectly, Love can also be regarded as Eternity's son. No wonder Love looks quite strong in the last scene of Love and Thunder .
