VS. ANTI-VENOM!
Flash Thompson hunts Cletus down, but has Cletus been hunting him all along? It's an all-out Symbiote slugfest sure to splatter these pages with slaughter.
Rated T+
In Carnage #4, Cletus Kasady is an unstoppable force of chaos operating at the top of his game. His showdown with Anti-Venom is an excellent display of the creative team's artistic talent. Read Full Review
The book slow crawl and lack of clear purpose make it ill-positioned for a crossover with another title, but all Carnage stories seem to inevitable lead back to Venom, and here we are. Read Full Review
This first arc of Carnage sets up some really interesting ideas with how culture tends to celebrate and immortalize violent murderers, through stuff like True Crime. They aren't new ideas, but spinning them into a book about a newly-godlike Carnage works really well. The arc doesn't really end though. It just stops. I'm hoping Gronbekk can stick the landing, and the crossover with Venom doesn't muck things up too much.
Plot
Flash Thompson gets Cletus and witnesses his evil, but in reality it is all a plan by Carnage, who reveals that he poisoned Rose, Flash's mother, so Antivenom runs to save her using his antigen.
Just outside the fgeritrioc Antivenom and Carnage fight and Flash inadvertently reveals to Cletus that Dylan is Venom. Flash became confident and began to use his antigen against Carnage but Carnage reveals that he now has cosmic powers due to Knull's knowledge and traps Flash in a place outside our world.
Carnage now goes after Dylan, here begins the Venom and Carnage micro event called SYMBIOSIS NECROSIS.
Torunn offers a dizzying and impressive narrative pace, it is possibly the most accelerated and viole more
A solid issue, but nothing spectacular. I don't really have all that much to say about this one. Everything inside was good and I thought the fight between Carnage and Anti-Venom was neat, but I wish I was a little more invested in this.
