Marvel Zombies S01-EP01 Captain Marvel vs Ikaris

>!So in the first episode, when Kamala, Kate and Riri are travelling to Utah, we witness a thunderstorm. Turns out its not a thunderstorm, but the eternal fight between Ikaris and the zombiefied Captain Marvel. It looks fantastic, showing how two heavy hitters are fighting an eternal fight. !<

>!But I did not understand what the point of the fight was? Why were they even fighting? Was Ikaris trying to protect Earth from Zombie Captain Marvel? And is he actually as powerful as Captain Marvel, so he can inflict heavy damage? !<

Yes it was protection. Protecting what though is unclear. He could be protecting the rest of the earth, he could be keeping her from space which would infect the entire galaxy.

This I feel like. She would blast past the Nova Corp and infect the rest of the galaxy.

Something I don't understand is, why it was Ikaris, and where are the other eternals? They easily could have taken down Captain Marvel, combined.

Nobody can say where they were for sure, but it wouldn't be hard to imagine Ikaris being the last one standing, as he is the strongest, most well-rounded eternal.

If I was to hazard a guess, Scarlet Witch may have taken them out since they can't be corrupted by the virus, and thus could be a threat to her plans. Maybe Ikaris was too strong/risky to fight head-on, so she allowed Captain Marvel to essentially take him off the board.

Remember, they have been split up at this point. Most of them aren’t as good as Ikaris at survival.

This is something most probably wouldn’t care to remember. In the timeline, Eternals is post Endgame so they would all be separate across the world. I would be fascinated to see hints of their fates. Kingo was in India, he could survive. Thena and Gilgamesh would probably survive in their exile. Druig in the Amazon would probably put up a fight with his cult for a while. Makkari was chilling in the ship, with her speed it should be no question to survive. Phastos was being human, he could invent some cool shit so who knows? Ajak is probably a goner, but as a healer potentially a major factor fighting the virus. Sersi and Sprite were together, hard to say if they are goners. Sprite could illusion them against the undead and Sersi could maybe change zombie atoms like she eventually did with the Celestial.

If the zombies made it to Wakanda then I’m sure they can make it to India lol

Who knows we might get to see them in season 2

Ikaris, like the other eternals, are essentially robots. From what has been shown, the virus doesn't infect robots like Vision, and the iron suit.

Concerning Captain Marvel, if she was anywhere near that Infinity Stone explosion, Carol would be absolutely roided out and crazy strong (see Endgame when she absorbs the energy from the gauntlet and bullies Thanos). That could actually be what happened to the other Eternals. She might have straight up killed them all except for Ikaris. If you look at her fight with Ikaris, during parts of it she's looking hella charged up. Hard to tell with animation, but it might be a clue this is what happened.

IREALLYDONTKNOW33332025-10-06 02:02

She is in her binary form (seen at end of captain marvel)

CharlesKellyRatKing2025-10-04 22:51

Yep that's how I took it, protecting the galaxy by preventing her from leaving

Porn__Flakes_2025-10-04 18:18

Captain Marvel could easily escape earth and spread the virus in the whole Universe, Arishem knew that even Nova Corps would not be able to stop her. So, he instructed Ikaris to keep fighting her so she couldn't escape earth. Because if the virus got spread in the whole universe, emergences will stop everywhere and the celestials don't want that.

people who have a spoiler tag and then put the spoiler in the title...

Ikaris was malfunctioning in some way, I think due to Mahd Wy'ry, as they appear to show him having light patterns on his face that were similar to what Thena would get. He could also just have been damaged from battle too though.

West_Attorney47612025-10-04 23:26

The AI did say he was inorganic and heavily damaged

vinny4242025-10-04 23:38

Her name is F.R.I.D.A.Y sir

Its a fever dream of a show. I cant get past episode 1. They just tossed everyone in to the pot.

SharedAuto2025-10-06 02:55

Eternals needed emergence to happen, they need population to do that. If everyone were to be Zombies, that plan would fail.

Pretty sure, Marvel would be the most powerful of zombies when the plague started, Ikaris went on to fight her. But they're evenly matched so no clear winner and the fight raged on while the entirety of the planet went to shit. Not sure where other eternals are. Ikaris seems to be the only one doing his job.

CarefulWinner85502025-10-07 16:56

Remember Eternal movie? Inside of the Earth was a Celestial waiting to be born once Earth's population grow large enough. But since the zombie infection spread too fast, and I assume zombies are not living beings, the population of Earth dramatically reduced.

In order to avoid the zombie infection to turn into a cosmic threat due to zombie Captain Marvel. The Celestial probably commanded Ikaris to fight against her, the other eternals didn't help much with the zombie infection probably because they are no longer loyal to their mission - as we see in Eternal movie, they don't want any Celestial to emerge.

But we might get to see more Eternals in season 2, they confirmed they are working on it, and said they have full of materials to work with in season 2.
