Carnage #1

Carnage shall inherit the Earth! Every symbiote needs a host. And for Carnage, there has only ever been one host who has made it feel whole. It’s time for a reunion. Meanwhile, Flash Thompson has become convinced that a series of increasingly horrifying murders are all connected. As Flash puts the pieces together, get ready for Anti-Venom vs. Carnage — an all-out symbiote slugfest! Plus: While a reborn Cletus Kasady exacts his vengeance on an unsuspecting city, the Carnage symbiote remains adrift among the stars. The symbiote only has a few hurdles left before its glorious ascension to the throne of the King in Black — and the first is named Morlun! Collecting WEB OF CARNAGE #1 and CARNAGE (2023) #1-4.
