Plot Cletus is unleashed, leaving a trail of brutal, consecutive murders, but always following a path and leaving a trail. On the other hand, Flash Thompson knows that Cletus is back and needs all the emotional support possible to embark on the hunt for him. This comic includes scenes of explicit violence (gore) that will leave you shocked. Torunn offers an accelerated and impressive narrative pace. Art He is very detailed and successfully achieves bloody scenes, very visceral. Although the amount of detail often changes from one panel to another. Summary Carnage is complete and Cletus Kasady's bloodlust is Carnage's vice

A pretty solid issue here, but I do feel like this has the potential to be better. This started out really strong with Cletus's first kill of the issue, but I began to lose a bit of interest as time went on. That said, though, I did think this was an improvement over the first issue as a whole, so I'm glad to see that. Hopefully it continues to get better as time goes on.

The pace is a bit slow, and the dialogue often gets stilted (those damn contractions!). But the art is excellent, and the mystery of Carnage's unholy schemes is engaging. The evolving Biblical symbolism lends rare intellectual heft to a character that's normally just a murder monster.
