Thomas Logan, in a drunken stupor, invaded the Hewlett estate with his son and attempted to take Elizabeth Hewlett (implied to be his former lover) with him. John attempted to stop him and Thomas Logan shot him down in cold blood. James Hewlett had just entered the room when this occurred and for the first time his mutation manifested; his claws extended from the backs of his hands and he attacked the intruders with uncharacteristic ferocity, killing Thomas Logan, and scarring Dog's face with three claw marks. Elizabeth Hewlett, who was already an emotionally disturbed woman, took her life immediately afterward with a blast from Thomas's gun. Fearing for their safety, Rose fled the estate with James, who appeared to have been deeply traumatized and had somehow repressed or forgotten most of the memories of life back at the estate. Dog falsely reported to the police and James's grandfather that Rose had murdered John Hewlett II and Thomas Logan. The eldest Hewlett, shunned James and with no family left, took Dog in as his ward. However, Dog was already a burgeoning psychopath and it was too late for his character to evolve down any other path.

Born the second son of wealthy landowners John and Elizabeth Howlett in Alberta, Canada during the late 19th Century, James Howlett was a frail boy of poor health. James was largely neglected by his mother, who was institutionalized for a time following the death of her first son, John Jr., in 1897. He spent most of his early years on the estate grounds and had two playmates that lived on the Howlett estate with him: Rose, a red-headed girl who was brought in from town to be a companion to young James, and a boy nicknamed "Dog" who was the son of the groundskeeper, Thomas Logan. Thomas Logan was an alcoholic and was extremely abusive to his son. The children were close friends but as they reached young adulthood, the abuse inflicted upon Dog warped his mind. His actions would lead to a tragic chain of events. that started as the three neared their adolescent years when Dog made unwanted advances toward Rose and James reported it to his father. In retaliation Dog killed James's pet dog. This in turn resulted in the expulsion of Thomas Logan and Dog Logan from the estate.

Cletus Kasai was a mentally unstable serial killer who briefly shared a cell with Eddie Brock. When Eddie broke out, he left a part of his Symbiotic behind, and Carnage was born. Using the abilities of his new symbiotic, Cletus created a long history of slaughtering people and being put in jail for it. Many of his adventures involved Venom and Spider-Man, whom he believed to be his mortal enemies. During one such stint in the Raft, a mass breakout occurred, and The Sentry was activated by Tony Stark. Carnage was flown into orbit and ripped in half, seemingly being killed. Years later, in an attempt to recover Kassey's symbiotic, his body was captured, and he was found to be alive. Given cybernetic implants for legs, Cletus eventually recovered his symbiotic as well and remains at large.

It has long been erroneously thought that writers Roy Thomas and Mark Grunewald brought the Eternal into official Marvel Universe continuity in a long storyline in the Thor comic book series that climaxed in Thor #30, resolving those lingering plot lines. Subsequent to the THOR storyline, the Eternal (and the mythology connected to them) have appeared or been mentioned in numerous Marvel comics. In particular, the Celestia's' experiment on humanity has been used to explain how certain humans can develop super-powers. The Titania (created by Jim Starlin) and Iranians (created by Stan Lee)were later reconnected as being Eternal as well.
The storyline took elements from the ideas of the Ancient astronauts, which postulate that humanity may have been visited by extraterrestrials in ancient times and interpreted them as supernatural beings. Thus, a recurring topic of the plots was to use the Eternal, the Deviants or the Celestia's to provide explanations for myths or obscure events from history. In particular, many points from the book Chariots of the Gods? by Erich Von Kennie were incorporated into the plot, such as the Nazca Lines being an extraterrestrial airport or the Incas getting technological advances from them and in turn worshiping them as gods.
