Product Description: What's worse than one mayhem-producing symbiote? Two. What's worse than that? Three. That's right: Venom's offspring, Carnage, is about to have a baby itself - a creature of indescribable power and appetites. Question is, who's gonna bring up baby? Quick - someone call Spider-Man! Guest-starring Black Cat!
Venom vs. Carnage Great series featuring, Black cat, Spidey, Venom, Carnage and Toxin. Worth a look for any spider-man or venom fan.
Enter Toxin Clayton Crain's artwork and color is just beautiful, even in this setting. Although in some panels incredibly surrealistic I wish all comic books looked this good. Aside from the great (and sometimes weird) artwork I enjoyed the story. Who doesn't want more symbiotes? And the new guy Toxin is a beast. My only criticism (and always a compliment coming from me) I wish there was more. But you can't go wrong with this little book, great artwork and I really liked the story. Would make a great sick animated short.
Carnage Venom This comic introduces Toxin into the comic world as how he came around and who the father is of the symbiote. Very good reading! If you are a fan of the villans in Spider-Man you will love this book.
Ignores previous continuity. This book is all right, but not spectacular. There were just too many goofy continuity errors for me to really be able to enjoy it. The biggest error would be Black Cat not knowing who Carnage was; she was one of the major players in the maximum carnage saga. I don't know how an author could reasonably write a carnage/venom story and not have at least looked at Carnage's biggest story arc.
Also, the whole Carnage having a spawn, and Venom's reaction to it seem kind of off. I mean, Kassady's Carnage manifestation isn't really a symbiote; it's just a part of him, so there's no "we" when he talks. His actual symboiote was destroyed in the first carnage storyline, so I am surprised he would be even be able to spawn, let alone against his wishes.
Overall, bad-story, but nice art.
Awesome I have read this Graphic Novel and it was the most amazing graphic novel i have ever read. The story was amazing, the artwork was amazing the whole thing is amazing. so if you are even considering to get this book GET it now. Also if you want to know more about the relationship of carnage and venom buy it. if you know nothing at all about the symbiotes you may get confused but even if that is the case it is still amazing.
