In the early 1990's, Venom's skyrocketing popularity as an antihero derailed co-creator David Michelinie's plan to kill Eddie Brock off and have the symbiote jump from host to host. Feeling Marvel had lost one of its most terrifying villains as a result of Venom's transition into the Lethal Protector, Michelinie decided to create a new symbiotic super villain, one with no redeeming features whatsoever. Erik Larsen came up with Cletus Kasady, inspired by Batman's The Joker, and Mark Bagley designed a red and black symbiote intended to emphasize the new villain's nature as a chaos-obsessed psychopath. Carnage debuted in 1991, when the Venom symbiote's newborn offspring bonded to serial killer Kasady. Carnage's defining storyline was the Maximum Carnage crossover, where he recruited several supervillains and declared war on New York, forcing Spider-Man to form his own alliance of superheroes and anti-heroes to combat him.Since then, Carnage has become one of Spider-Man's most (in)famous villains, appearing infrequently in the comics before seemingly being killed off after Mac Gargan became a more monstrous version of Venom. After Flash Thompson became a heroic Venom, Carnage was brought back in 2011, and has starred in a number of his own miniseries since then. His popularity and role as a humanizing agent for Venom has led to his appearance in several video games and animated series.Carnage has had three self-titled volumes and a number of miniseries and crossovers: Maximum Carnage (1993). A crossover event where Carnage assembles a "family" of twisted super villains and tries to conquer Manhattan, with Spider-Man and his allies — including longtime enemy Venom — rallying to stop them. Carnage: Mind Bomb (1995), written by Warren Ellis with art by Kyle Hotz, was a one-shot where Pentagon psychologist Matthew Kurtz attempts to psychoanalyze the imprisoned Cletus Kasady, only for Carnage to give him a front-row seat to how he sees the world. Carnage: It's a Wonderful Life (1996), written by David Quinn with art by Kyle Hotz, was a one-shot where Carnage drags Dr. Ashley Kafka and John Jameson into his mental world in an attempt to break them, only to unintentionally reveal subconscious secrets he'd rather stay buried. Carnage Vol. 1 (2010–2011), written by Zeb Wells with art by Clayton Crain, was a five-issue miniseries. Spider-Man and Iron Man team up to investigate Hall Industries' new biomechanical prosthetics and powered armor, only to discover that Carnage is not only back on Earth but still alive after having been ripped in half by the Sentry in space. Carnage U.S.A. (2011-2012), written by Zeb Wells with art by Clayton Crain, was a five-issue miniseries wherein Carnage experiments with his upgraded powers by using his symbiote to take over the city of Doverton, Colorado, forcing the New Avengers, Agent Venom, Scorn, and the new Mercury Team to team up and try to stop him. Minimum Carnage (2012), a crossover between Venom and Scarlet Spider wherein Carnage is freed from prison by and taken to the Microverse by the diminutive warlord Marquis Radu, forcing Agent Venom and Kaine to team up to stop him. Superior Carnage (2013), a tie-in to Superior Spider-Man written by Kevin Shinick, has the Wizard attempt to recruit Carnage into the latest iteration of the Frightful Four only to fail due to Cletus having been lobotomized by Kaine, forcing him to transfer the Carnage symbiote to a new more-controllable host, Dr. Karl Malus — resulting in the Superior Carnage. Superior Carnage Annual (2014), written by Cullen Bunn, has Cletus Kasady recovered from his lobotomy but in prison and separated from the Carnage symbiote, which dies when Cletus is almost murdered by a fellow inmate. A surviving piece of the symbiote embarks on a cross-country mission to reunite with him before he succumbs to his injuries. Deadpool vs. Carnage (2014), written by Cullen Bunn with art by Salva Espin, has Cletus decide to go back to basics with a good old-fashioned killing spree, only to find himself being hunted by Deadpool, whose own brand of insanity may be more than a match even for Carnage's. AXIS: Carnage (2014), written by Rick Spears with art by Germán Peralta, is a three-issue miniseries wherein the morally-inverted Carnage struggle to be a superhero with the advice of morally-bankrupt reporter Alice Gleason, who is being hunted by the spectral Sin-Eater. Carnage Vol. 2 (2015–2017), written by Gerry Conway, with art by Mark Perkins, debuted as part of All-New, All-Different Marvel event, plunging the symbiotic serial killer into territory more familiar to the likes of Doctor Strange. Carnage finds himself the subject of a prophecy to unleash the elder god Chthon, forcing the FBI's new Anti-Symbiote Task Force and Victoria Montesi to team up and hunt him down before he can do so. Absolute Carnage (2019), written by Donny Cates with art by Ryan Stegman, has Cletus Kasady — reanimated as an undead demigod by a symbiote-worshiping cult — wage war on New York City while Venom, Spider-Man, and their allies scramble to stop him from unleashing the dark god Knull from his interstellar prison. Carnage: Black, White & Blood (2021) is an anthology of one-shots by various writers and artists, some being untold tales set in Earth-616 and others being set in alternate universe. Extreme Carnage (2021) is an event where the Carnage symbiote — controlled by Cletus Kasady's codex — exploits the post-King In Black anti-symbiote prejudice to throw the world into even greater chaos, brainwashing the Life Foundation symbiotes into joining his mission to usurp Eddie Brock's crown as the new King in Black; while Agent Anti-Venom, Anti Benton, Toxin, and their allies rush to stop him. Carnage Vol. 3 (2022-2023), written by Ram V and Alex Paknadel, with art by Francesco Manna, is an ongoing series following in the wake of Extreme Carnage and Carnage Forever, with the Carnage symbiote parting ways with Cletus Kasady's codex and striking out on its own to pursue godhood, while Cletus Kasady adjusts to the new level of power his new Extrembiote gives him. Carnage Reigns (2023) is a crossover between Carnage, Miles Morales: Spider-Man, and Red Goblin; where the reborn Cletus Kasady takes the Extrembiote out for a gory test-drive. Web of Carnage (2023), written by Ram V with art by Francesco Manna, serves as a finale for Carnage (Vol. 3) leading into the events of Extreme Venomverse and Death of the Venomverse. Carnage Vol. 4 (2023), written by Torunn Grønbekk with art by Pere Pérez, chronicles the Carnage symbiote seeking to reunite with Cletus Kasady in the wake of Death of the Venomverse.

Bio-Armor: Halls Industry uses samples of the Carnage symbiote to make biomechanical suits of Powered Armor for their Iron Rangers. Iron Man is not impressed, accusing Hall of ripping off his own suits. Carnage is more than happy to seize control of the suits, kill the people inside them, and then amalgamate them into a gestalt construct called Mass Carnage.

Heel–Face Door-Slam: Dr. Nieves makes significant progress with helping Frances Barrison... that is promptly undone by Hall Industries forcing Frances to use her psychic hate-waves to empower the Carnage symbiote, her callous treatment at the hands of Hall Industries' guards, and watching them cruelly torment the Doppelgänger — which sees Frances as its mother. This causes Frances the snap and fully relapse into her Shriek persona, leading Tanis to dismiss her as a lost cause who should be put down like a rabid dog.

Military Superhero: After Agent Venom went AWOL, the military began hunting for other symbiotes to weaponize and create super soldiers, recruiting Scorn (Tanis Nieves) and seeking to recruit Anti-Venom (Eddie Brock), Toxin (Patrick Mulligan), and Hybrid (Scott Washington). With Eddie being depowered in the wake of Spider-Island, and Scott and Patrick being dead with the Toxin symbiote unaccounted for, the military took the Hybrid symbiote and split it into the Lasher, Phage, Riot, and Agony symbiotes before bonding them to amputee soldiers. Realizing even the New Avengers are outgunned against the new and improved Carnage, Captain America fights Cletus' control through sheer force of will and sends a distress signal to alert AWOL Sym-Soldier — and Secret Avengers member — Agent Venom (Flash Thompson) to their predicament.

Mind Rape: The Carnage symbiote attempts to coerce Tanis into succumbing to its bloodlust and fully bonding to it by forcing Cletus' memories and hatred onto her, but she barely manages to resist so it seeks out Cletus and rebonds to him. When Iron Man attempts to hack into the Iron Ranger suits after Carnage assimilates them, Mass Carnage reverse-hacks his Extremis suit with sheer Ax-Crazy bloodlust, which is connected directly to Tony's brain. This incapacitates Tony long enough for Mass Carnage to engulf and assimilate him into the amalgam.

Half the Man He Used to Be
 Carnage (Comic Book) / int_91697559
comment
Half the Man He Used to Be: Having been torn in half by the Sentry years prior, Cletus Kasady is still missing the lower half of his body. Unfortunately for everyone, he's able to survive thanks to Hall Industries hooking him up with symbiote-derived prosthetic legs. Doppelgänger is torn in half as a result of its altercation with the Iron Rangers, but survives and eventually regenerates due to being a Humanoid Abomination.

Cyborg: Due to having incubated in and assimilated Tanis Nieves' prosthetic arm, the Scorn symbiote is a cyborg with powerful technopathic abilities. Having been ripped in half from the waist down by the Sentry, Cletus Kasady is outfitted with a biomechanical pelvis and legs by Hall Industries when it's discovered he's still alive.

Purple Is Powerful
 Carnage (Comic Book) / int_a20b2263
comment
Purple Is Powerful: Carnage amalgamates the Iron Rangers into a massive Voltron-esque construct called Mass Carnage, which is purple in coloration and strong enough to take down Iron Man in his Extremis armor. After returning to Tanis Nieves, the Scorn symbiote turns purple with silvery markings — emphasizing its nature as a technopathic cyborg.

The Friend Nobody Likes: When Spider-Man suggests inviting the Thing to join the New Avengers' anti-Carnage squad, Hawkeye immediately tries to veto it — saying he can't stand Ben Grimm's "ever-lovin' blue-eyed" catchphrase and his constant invocation of his Aunt Petunia.

comment
Monster Organ Trafficking: After extracting the Carnage symbiote from Cletus Kasady's mutilated body, Hall Industries began using samples of its biomass to produce biomechanical prosthetics and suits of powered armor. Of course, this backfires horribly.

Captured Super-Entity
 Carnage (Comic Book) / int_bb5e187b
comment
Captured Super-Entity: After Eddie Brock killed Scott Washington in Venom, the military appropriated the Hybrid symbiote and split it into its four constituent parts while also officially naming them Lasher, Phage, Riot, and Agony. It then bonded them to disabled soldiers in emulation of Agent Venom, though because the symbiotes were left effectively braindead from the trauma of Scott's murder they weren't able to fully cover their hosts. Scorn also captures a surviving piece of the Carnage symbiote to be weaponized by the military.

Weaponized Offspring: Thanks to the experiments performed on it by Hall Industries, the Carnage symbiote gains the ability to create and control offshoots of itself — using this to seize control of Tanis' prosthetic arm to free itself, and later to seize control of the Iron Ranger suits to kill their occupants and merge them into Mass Carnage.

Anti-Hero: Wolverine — true to his nature as the New Avengers' Villain Killer — advocates killing Cletus Kasady once he's stripped of the Carnage symbiote, arguing with Hawkeye over whether just stopping him is good enough.

Good Colors, Evil Colors: When the Scorn symbiote is first spawned, it is an orange-y colouration until it returns to Tanis Nieves, turning purple and metallic silver.

An Arm and a Leg: Tanis Nieves loses an arm during an altercation between Doppelgänger and the Iron Rangers, with Hall Industries giving her a biomechanical prosthesis (and an NDA) as an apology.

Darkest Hour: The New Avengers sorely underestimate Carnage despite Spider-Man's warnings, resulting in them being taken over by offshoots of the symbiote — leaving only Spider-Man and a handful of civilians unaffected, outmatched, and outgunned until Agent Venom and the Mercury Team arrive.

Dark and Troubled Past: Dr. Tanis Nieves became a psychiatrist due to her memories of having a dog her parents had taken away and had put down, recalling that it had been sweet and gentle and misunderstood, but it eventually turns out that she repressed the memories of the dog actually being vicious and attacking people. She projects her feelings towards the dog onto her patient Frances Barrison; and when Frances relapses into being Shriek, Tanis decides that — like her dog — she needs to be put down.
