History

Cletus Kasady was a mentally ill serial killer serving a prison sentence in Ryker's Island. The Venom Symbiote broke out Cletus' cellmate, Eddie Brock, out of Ryker's, but left its offspring behind. The new symbiote bonded to Cletus and the two became the super-villain known as Carnage.[1]

Scream's Army[]

Scream had a psychotic episode and decided to conquer New York City with the Symbiote Hive. Manipulating Cletus' Symbiote Codex, the Carnage Symbiote possessed Cletus.[1]

Carange and other symbiote hosts

Scream was ultimately defeated when Superior Spider-Man created an anti-symbiote ray that briefly gave Cletus and the other hosts control of his body. He joined the Spider-Men; however, Carnage actually remained with the symbiotes despite his free will and worked as their undercover agent.[1]

Symbiote Spawns[]

When Carnage found out that Spider-Man, still infected with the Venom Symbiote, could be manipulated into releasing symbiote duplicates, he took the opportunity to create his own symbiote army. To aid his cause, he broke out Spider-Venom, a variant of Parker in a similar situation, out of S.H.I.E.L.D. custody. Eventually, Spider-Venom was confronted with Eddie Brock. This was Peter Parker's first encounter with the Anti-Venom Symbiote. His cells responded by creating their own Anti-Venom Symbiote and Peter not only stopped producing spawns but also absorbed existing ones.[1]

Planet of the Symbiotes[]

Carnage was recruited back into the Symbiote Hive by Mayhem, hoping for his aid in preventing the extinction of the symbiotes. While on Klyntar, Carnage tried to destroy Eddie Brock and the original Anti-Venom. He underestimated them and Cletus was briefly separated from Carnage.[1]

Carnage was among the symbiotes imprisoned in the Symbiote Prison. He rejoined the symbiotes to organize a prison break and exact revenge on Spider-Man. After the symbiotes were disbanded, he created a new group called the Nation of Carnage.[1]

Carnage battles Spider-Man on Klyntar

He brought back as a high ranking member of the Symbiote army. He led a battalion during Thanos' raid on Klyntar, who used the Mind Stone to brainwash Carnage and his troops. Luckily, they were freed from his influence by Venom.[1]
