After defeating Venom in the third Spider-Man project, Spider-Man manages to separate the alien symbiote from Eddie Brock using high-frequency sonic bursts. Instead of letting it escape, Peter seals the living black mass inside a reinforced glass cylinder in his basement laboratory, lined with sonic emitters and vibration dampeners. The creature writhes silently inside its prison. Freed from the symbiote’s influence, Eddie is shaken. Rather than send him back to prison, Peter offers him a chance to help prevent something worse from happening again. Reluctantly, Eddie agrees. They become uneasy allies, watching the jar carefully. But across the city, something worse is already forming. When serial killer Cletus Kasady escapes Ravencroft, he bonds with a symbiote offspring left behind from Venom’s past. The result is Carnage—stronger, wilder, and driven purely by chaos. Carnage begins attacking New York at random, spreading fear and destruction not for revenge, but for enjoyment. He gathers followers—Shriek, whose sonic scream can shatter buildings; Doppelganger, a monstrous six-armed Spider-Man duplicate; Demogoblin, a fanatic who believes destruction purifies; and Carrion, twisted by dark science. They call themselves a family and wage war on the city.
