Absolute Carnage is name of the event, maximum chaos is the goal and not even an entire Spider-verse of heroes may be capable of stopping Carnage as he embarks on his latest rampage that’ll probably feature enough oozing tentacle action to count as a hentai festival. While the core series will be written by Donny Cates and visualised by Ryan Stegman’s metal artwork, the first issue alone is going to have a ton of amazing comic book covers attached to it.

This year’s big marvel event sees none other than Cletus Kasady on a rampage, as the most lethal symbiote to ever exist is on a mission in Absolute Carnage. A story years in the making, Absolute Carnage will fold out across four issues written by Donny Cates and drawn by Ryan Stegman. This being comic books, there’s so much more to the tale than just a mere quartet of comic books. So where does one even begin? Right here with this handy dandy primer!

Later this year, the real Carnage is back and he won’t be satisfied with just a mere Maximum extension of his brand of anarchy. This time, Carnage is going for an absolute victory.
