Carnage #14

Carnage #14 is another great view from the villain's side of the story. Even with more heroes and other costumed characters wading in, the focus of this issue is the man pulling all the strings. Read Full Review

Carnage #14 piles more and more complexity onto the raging street battle between Cletus Kasady and Brooklyn's own Spider-Man, but with the comic's other, more intriguing plotline put on hold, it can't help but feel like Carnage Reigns is a detour that has gone on a little too long.

This chapter is full of action, but also neatly catches us up on everything that happened so far in "Carnage Reigns" -- and contains some chilling hints at what's in store. Read Full Review

I liked Carnage more before the "Carnage Reigns" storyline kicked off. Because this has now become a major event series across the Marvel universe, some of the tighter, character-focused storytelling that was previously seen in Carnage has completely fallen by the wayside. Read Full Review

This continues to be a fun crossover with this issue here as we get into the second half. While I was feeling a bit confused as to why Red Goblin was included in this when reading this crossover's previous issue (Red Goblin #5), I must say that I liked how he was written here alongside Miles. I do feel a little underwhelmed when thinking of this as the final issue of this run, but I also understand that the story being told here doesn't actually end until the Carnage Reigns: Omega one-shot.

This isn't really the end of this story but it is the end of this volume of Carnage. I'll just briefly say that I feel like Ram V was overall a misfit on this title. Some cool stuff happened, but overall, the direction of Carnage post-Cates' Venom run feels like a lot of effort for small returns. I do think Alex Paknadel made what Ram was doing more digestible, for what it's worth.

This is a better Red Goblin #5 than Red Goblin #5 was. And a pretty good comic all around. It's got a thrilling pace, sharp dialogue, exciting surprises, and good art. The visuals are very dynamic and organic--though they could be a little clearer when it comes to showing off character changes.
