All we know about All-New, All-Different’s Carnage so far
By Daniel Wood
Carnage is back. That’s all the introduction this article needs. Carnage! Venom’s angrier, deadlier and bloodier offspring is back with its own title. Oh what a time to be alive!
The first thing to notice is that it’s being written by Spider-Man legend Gerry Conway, the man who infamously killed off Gwen Stacy and the man who is currently killing it with character driven Amazing Spider-Man spin-off ‘Spiral’. This means that we can expect some excellent character driven storytelling involving Carnage and perhaps one or two game-changing moments.
Now, Carnage was temporarily turned good during the Axis event, but subsequently reverted to being flat-out evil, so it stands to reason that the monstrous red symbiote will be a fully fledged villain in this comic, or at least the darkest an anti-hero can get.
The image doesn’t give away who will be Carnage either, currently the symbiote is with its original owner Cletus Kasady and all we see is a picture of the symbiote forming around what appears to be an entrance to a mine shaft. I don’t know enough about Cletus to know whether or not mine shafts have any symbolic significance to his life. Nevertheless I’d imagine it will be Cletus behind the mask.
