It's Starfox time!

So yes, that will mean an A.X.E.: Starfox comic most likely in August, or September at a push. Starfox, also known as Eros was created by Jim Starlin and first appeared in Iron Man #55 in 1973, alongside his brother Thanos, as members of the Eternals living on the moon of Titan, with the power to control other people's emotions. A member of the Avengers, and seen as the God of Love, the aspects of his power have proved more problematic in recent years, to the extent that the character was put on trial for sexual assault. Not something that Kieron Gillen is likely to ignore, especially in a comic with "Judgment" in the title. But it is worth remembering that Starfox appears in the end credits of the Eternals movie, played by Harry Styles. So how far will they go with that line?
