~ Carnage |
Summary
Cletus Kasady was a convicted and trialed serial killer sentenced to death by the state. On his final visit, he called upon Eddie Brock to speak with him, antagonizing him and invoking Venom to attack him, biting Eddie's hand as he reaches Cletus' cell, infecting himself with a portion of Venom.
This small portion of Venom bonded with Cletus, and upon his sentence being brought through, the Symbiote stopped the poison from reaching Cletus' body, forming into a hulking creature Cletus named Carnage. The Symbiote had an unrelenting hatred for the Symbiote that spawned it, and worked with Cletus to find and avenge his love, and kill Venom.

Unlike Eddie, Cletus did not have a true bond with Carnage, thus leading to conflict between the two during battle.
