Carnage #1 (2022) (NM)
Carnage #1 (2022) introduces the aftermath of Extreme Carnage, where the Carnage symbiote has been left alone and adrift after its host, Cletus Kasady, became a codex in someone else. The story follows Detective Jon Shayde investigating a bizarre crime scene linked to a serial killer known as "The Artist," who unexpectedly encounters the newly liberated Carnage symbiote and appears to be in control of it.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
The Symbiote's Freedom:After the events of Extreme Carnage, Cletus Kasady's codex is separated from the Carnage symbiote, leaving the symbiote "adrift, alone...and deadlier and more bloodthirsty than ever before".
Detective Shayde's Investigation:Detective Jon Shayde is called to investigate a gruesome murder scene at a fur coat factory, which is disturbingly artistic and appears to be the work of a new serial killer dubbed "The Artist".
The Encounter:As The Artist prepares for his next victim, the Carnage symbiote appears, but it is not hunting the killer. Instead, it seems to have responded to The Artist's request for a "muse," suggesting The Artist has somehow summoned and gained some control over the independent symbiote.
A New Threat:This issue sets the stage for a twisted and violent new direction for Carnage, as the symbiote is no longer bound to Cletus and has found a terrifying new form of control through the bloodthirsty Artist.
