Well, the top is unreadable with all the control characters in it - can you strip those out?
The bottom is more clear, it's unable to read anything it thinks it should be able to boot from.
I'm not sure if the block read error means it can't read the block, or can't find anything valid there.
Can you try with dd? I've had zero luck with Etcher writing out the images properly - though mine is at least kind enough to refuse to write the image instead of writing something invalid. Either your SD card is bad, your SD card reader is bad, or there's not data where it's supposed to be. My experience with Etcher for these images leads me to believe the last is the most likely. I don't know why there's a difference, and I haven't felt the desire to find out when dd works fine.
Step 1: Get it booting off the SD card. Record the serial log from the boot.
Step 2: DD the image onto the eMMC while booted into the SD card.
Step 3: Boot (which should pull the firmware blobs and such off the eMMC), and see what serial says.
