Synopsis:

Venom’s son Carnage is about to give birth to a new symbiote, asexually. This new kid is the 1000th symbiote in the line with its grandfather and father, with an agenda of their own — One disgusted by the birth process, while the other is angry at the way the child will grow. Spider-Man with the guest, Black Cat gets drawn into this origin story of Toxin.

AWEsomeness:

Milligan’s plot is okayish as it plays out, the art was sort of rubbery syncing with the wet climates making it a wet-rubbery moment.

My Review:

The story is a good one, as it reflects how an ordinary man’s life is ruptured when dragged into a supervillain fight. The stakes are high and uneasy alliances are formed. This is a splendid story to know the origin of the 3rd major symbiote in the Marvel Universe and Crain’s art of the fight in the graveyard is just splendid with Spider-Man, Black Cat, Toxin, Venom, and Carnage. The rain just makes it mind-blowingly squishy.

Rating: 4/5
