Absolute Carnage: Miles Morales #1

Miles Morales has his hands full in this 2019 tie-in to Marvel's Absolute Carnage event, with Clayton Crain's cover depicting Spider-Man locked in a mid-air struggle against a green, serpentine-tailed villain — all while a massive, gaping Carnage symbiote looms hungrily overhead against a grey city skyline. The threat feels genuinely enormous, with the symbiote's maw dominating the upper half of the image and promising that Miles is caught between two very different kinds of danger. Writer Saladin Ahmed and artist Federico Vicentini, with colors by Erick Arciniega, make this a compelling entry point for fans of Miles who want to see how the wall-crawler fares when Carnage sets its sights on Brooklyn.
