Dec 28, 2022Following the titular symbiote's recent adventure into the Norse world, issue #8 sets the stage for this series to go in some very different directions. And while I'm still not sure what to make of everything just yet, I remain greatly intrigued by what writer Ram V is looking to do with Carnage next. Read Full Review

This is a very interesting read with really dark overtones (which is appropriate for carnage). The story turns towards it's next destination I'm not quite sure where we are heading next but I'm along for the ride for sure. Ram v is absolutely brilliant and if he is writing a story I will be reading it. I'm very intrigued and definitely have some questions after this one but that's to be expected after the first issue of a new arc

I'm pretty clear on the intent here, and I think it's good. But there are a couple of misfortunes holding this issue back. First, I don't think it sticks the landing in terms of meaning. Ambiguity is great for setting a creepy tone at the start, but by the end I was hoping for more specificity. Second, although the art has great bones and some inventive blocking, it's short of detail. And that means it doesn't convey the full, gory potential of what's happening to the protagonist. It's a good comic--but one that's haunted by the ghost of the even better comic it could be with some tweaks.

This issue reminds me of those weird one-shots that a lot of Vertigo titles would do. Not much in the way of plot progression, but really cool and interesting on their own. Except... this isn't really all that interesting on its own.
