ComicBook has the exclusive first look at Eddie Brock: Carnage #2 by Charles Soule and Jesus Saiz, as well as the cover of Eddie Brock: Carnage #4. The pages from Eddie Brock: Carnage #2 teases a fight between Eddie and Bushwacker as we flashback to Eddie’s past. We see him as Venom sitting on his King in Black throne with giant symbiote wings spread wide from his back. Eddie’s conversation with Bushwacker appears to be taking place inside an interrogation cell. Next, we see Eddie and Carnage near death at the end of Venom War, where they decided to work together to survive.

There’s a splash page of Bushwacker turning his right arm into a huge gun to fire a blast of energy at Eddie Brock, who is consumed by Carnage and dodges at the last minute. Iban Coello’s cover of Eddie Brock: Carnage #4 features the next villain Eddie and Carnage go after: Muse, who fans will soon get to see in live-action in Daredevil: Born Again.

The final moments of Eddie Brock: Carnage #4 take readers inside Eddie’s mind, where he’s having a conversation with Carnage about who exactly they’re going to kill next. We see a wall lined withย photos featuring the likes of Galactus, Silver Surfer, Hela, Phoenix, Bullseye, and Elektra.

Galactus, Silver Surfer, Phoenix, and Hela can be considered omega-level characters. Theyโ€™re adventures typically take them to the cosmos or other realms like Asgard, whereas until recently Carnage and Venom have been Earth-based characters. However, Eddie Brock was formerly the King in Black and ruler over all the symbiotes, while Carnage has been traveling across the Marvel Universe amassing power, turning the symbiote into something not unlike a god. Carnage must have liked his taste at new power, and is looking to get more of it by slaying these powerful heroes and villains.

The exclusive first look at Eddie Brock: Carnage #2 is below. The issue goes on sale March 19th, with Eddie Brock: Carnage #4 on sale May 28th.
