It looks like Eternals #12 will be the series finale, but will Marvel resurrect it after Judgment Day?
April 13's Eternals #11 from Kieron Gillen, Guiu Vilanova, Matthew Wilson, and Clayton Cowles contains the expected AXE: Judgment Day lead-in story about the Eternals attempting to commune with the dead Celestial whose husk forms the Avengers's headquarters, Avengers Mountain. But it also holds what may be a tragic surprise for fans of the title: the apparent end of the Eternals ongoing series.
The teaser caption on the last page of the issue which sets the stage for May 18's Eternals #12 reads "To be concluded…", rather than "To be continued." A simple difference to be sure, but it seems to be the nail in the coffin for the cancellation of the current Eternals series.
In that vein, the solicitation text for Eternals #12 also seems like it's foreshadowing an ending, stating "Thanos makes his final moves to end our world."
