Absolute Carnage Collected Editions

A resurrected Cletus Kasady, empowered beyond all prior limits, hunts every former symbiote host to harvest the Knull-linked codexes from their spines, forcing Spider-Man and Venom into an uneasy alliance to stop the slaughter.

The complete Absolute Carnage event in a single hardcover — from Carnage's brutal return and symbiote host massacre to every tie-in featuring Spider-Man, Venom, Deadpool, Miles Morales, the Avengers, Scream, and more in the battle against Knull's herald.

The definitive collection of Donny Cates and Ryan Stegman's complete Venom saga, from the revelation of Knull and his ancient war on life through the Absolute Carnage crisis and the world-ending King in Black event.

An ancient evil awakens beneath Manhattan as Eddie Brock discovers the Venom symbiote has been hiding a terrifying secret — the existence of Knull, a primordial god of darkness who created all symbiotes and now sends his Dragon herald to reclaim them.

Shocking truths about Eddie Brock's son Dylan surface as a creature from the void of space descends on New York, forcing Venom into a desperate battle that tests the limits of the symbiote bond and what it means to be a family.

Four standalone tales explore the darkest corners of Venom's history — from an ancient symbiote creature encountered during the Vietnam War and Carnage's resurrection, to Eddie Brock's uneasy San Francisco life and an early clash between Venom and the original Ghost Rider.

Deadpool checks himself into Ravencroft Institute during Carnage's rampage — a decision that goes immediately and catastrophically wrong — while Captain Marvel faces a symbiote-infected threat she can't simply punch her way through.

Three standalone tie-ins probe the event's wider fallout — the Immortal Hulk faces a symbiote-empowered threat, classic-era Spider-Man revisits his alien costume's darkest impulses, and a demonic symbiote bond turns Vengeance into a weapon for Carnage.

Former symbiote hosts including Morbius and Maniac band together with street-level heroes to survive Carnage's deadly purge, while Earth's Mightiest Heroes mount their own desperate defence against the symbiote cult's growing reach.

A reluctantly resurrected Scream must confront her own dark symbiote legacy as Carnage's rampage targets former hosts, paired with a horror tale rooted in the chaos of the original symbiote's earliest separations.

A reborn and empowered Carnage hunts every former symbiote host to harvest their codexes for Knull, forcing Eddie Brock and the Venom symbiote into their most brutal confrontation yet to prevent a catastrophe of cosmic scale.

With Earth's heroes stretched thin by Malekith's global invasion, Venom stands as New York City's last line of defence — only to face an even deadlier threat when a resurrected Carnage enters the fray.

Spider-Man is caught in the crossfire of Carnage's deadly hunt as his symbiote history puts everyone around him at risk, while Norman Osborn's violent Red Goblin past resurfaces with devastating consequences for Peter Parker.
