On a hunt for every Super Hero in the Marvel Universe who has worn a symbiote, Carnage has his eyes on his first victims…starting with some of our favorite Marvel heroes. The symbiote amplified his psychotic nature making him even less mentally stable than he had been previously, and therefore even more dangerous. Cletus Kasady, created by David Michelinie and Erik Larsen, first appeared in Amazing Spider-Man #344 and became the first and most well-known … Everyone is a target! Beginning in Free Comic Book Day SPIDER-MAN/VENOM #1, Cletus Kasady is back, and he’s deadlier than ever. ABSOLUTE CARNAGE is here—and no one is safe. Carnage was once a serial killer known as Cletus Kasady, and became Carnage after merging with the offspring of the alien symbiote called Venom during a prison breakout.
