By contrast, the symbiotic “other” that had merged with Kasady was at one stage joined at a much lower cellular layer-bonding with the very blood cells of its host. The original Venom “parent” symbiote bonded with its host at a clean juncture to the nervous system. Far more lethal than Venom, Carnage escapes jail to embark on a murderous spree, killing a graduate student at Empire State University (ESU) who happens to be friends with Peter, kicking off a long-term enemy in the wall-crawler. Quickly setting about to consume a host, the biomass melds with the murderous Kasady-and the deadly symbiotic duo calling itself Carnage emerges.

The symbiote that had possessed Brock-and, at one time, Peter Parker, AKA Spider-Man-belonged to a less-violent caste of a bloodthirsty race of space-faring parasites. The pair easily smash through the cell wall and vanish into the night, failing to notice the trace of alien biomass they left behind.

The creature finds Brock in his jail cell and bonds with its host once more. Brock had become separated from his symbiotic other half, Venom. Sentenced to eleven consecutive life terms for the slaughter of numerous innocents, psychopathic serial killer Kasady shares time with his new cellmate, Eddie Brock. Then, inexplicably revived, Cletus grows up to become a killer, though in his mind, he sets his victims free. It’s there where Cletus’ devotion to chaos and death forms. When a symbiote offspring of Eddie Brock, AKA Venom, merges with serial killer Cletus Kasady, the result is the nightmarish murdering menace known as Carnage! Reborn from an alien creature, he’s a more psychotic and dangerous being that spawns a family of symbiotes.īorn in Ravencroft Institute to inmate Louise Kasady, Cletus emerges into the world, perishes at birth, and ends up in hell where he’s caged.
