New Foil Cover Celebrates Dazzling Danger of Carnage

New Foil Cover Celebrates Dazzling Danger of Carnage

Many of Marvel’s hottest issues are shining on comic stands with FOIL VARIANT COVERS. This archetype imbricate treatment is all the rage and this November, Carnage will get one of its own by well-known versifier Gabriele Dell’Otto. The piece captures the underdone fury the Carnage symbiote will unleash when it reunites with its favorite host—Cletus Kasady! Spinning out the current Death of the Venomverse limited series, Carnage is written by Torunn Grønbekk and drawn by versifier Pere Pérez. The series will reveal new levels of depravity and savagery from Marvel’s most terrifying villain as he continues his visionless takeoff to power! 

Describing the new series, Grønbekk said, “What are powers without purpose? Having hunted lanugo and triumphed over his greatest weaknesses, Carnage’s powers are unrivaled. However, a piece is still missing – the symbiote needs a host with the yearning to match its own. And for Carnage, there was only overly one. (And you know who!) I knew writing Carnage would be an opportunity to explore some pretty visionless themes, but I am surprised and delighted to find that the darkness is coming from some unexpected places. It is my kind of horror – overwhelmingly gruesome but still rooted firmly in humanity. Expect big symbiote action, mysteries, myth, and murder. This is gospel, equal to Cletus Kasady, and he is the end of the world as we know it.”

See it unelevated and witness Carnage’s latest slaughter when CARNAGE #1 hits stand in November! For increasing information,
