Cletus Kasady is back as a Carnage but this time he is different. He was resurrected by a cult dedicated to the worship of the god Knull and now he is back in New York City to collect codices, traces left inside those who wore a symbiote before at least once.
The story is written by Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman and spread from the pages of Venom to the whole Marvel universe.
Carnage’s devastation is not felt by Spider-man, Venom, or Miles Morales but this time his devastation is felt by Avengers as well. Even, Deadpool went one-to-one fight against him in this event. How Venom and Spider-Man will stop the Carnage who becomes Absolute Carnage?
