Eddie Brock: Carnage Vol. 1

After separating from the Venom symbiote, Eddie Brock heads in a new direction with a new surprising symbiote partner - Carnage!

He’s been Venom, he’s been Anti-Venom, he’s been the King in Black! Now Eddie Brock has made his darkest bond yet -- with the one and only Carnage! But can he control his new other’s endless bloodlust? Or will Eddie end up giving himself over to madness and murder? When he walks into a police station and asks to be arrested, you know there’s going to be some trouble. But when he does so while bonded to Carnage, it’s going to be a bloody nightmare. Embarking on a hunt for other serial killers, they are led straight to the brutal cyborg Bushwacker -- and then the homicidal artist known as Muse. It’s time for Eddie to prove he’s the biggest, baddest host a murderous symbiote could ask for -- because Carnage is out for blood, and he doesn’t care whose it is! But while he’s searching for murderers, Misty Knight is closing in on him!

Based in Brooklyn, New York, Charles Soule has written novels, comics, screenplays and stories of all types. Also a musician and an attorney, Soule somehow finds time to be one of the busiest writers in comics. Among his Marvel credits are Thunderbolts, She-Hulk and the landmark Death of Wolverine, as well as its immediate follow-up (Wolverines) and its eventual sequel (Return of Wolverine). Soule brought his legal expertise to the pages of Daredevil and assembled a blockbuster squad in Astonishing X-Men. Following solo series starring Darth Vader, Lando Calrissian and Poe Dameron, Soule turned his attention to the iconic rebel crew in a new volume of the flagship Star Wars title, and he was one of the select group of authors chosen to chart the unseen era of the High Republic.
