Eddie Brock: Carnage Vol. 1 - Killing Me - Paperback

by Charles Soule (Author), Jesus Saiz (Illustrator), Iban Coello

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!
