Axis: Carnage #3

The concluding chapter of this 2015 tie-in to Marvel's AXIS event delivers a genuinely unsettling cover by Alexander Lozano: Carnage's red-and-black symbiote form crouches small and almost vulnerable against a swirling green void, while a massive, looming pair of glowing eyes dominates the background — something far larger and more threatening pressing down on him. That visual tension between predator and prey is striking, and it sets a haunting tone for Rick Spears and Germán Peralta's finale. With Rain Beredo's eerie green palette washing over everything, this issue promises a dark, atmospheric close to one of 2015's more unexpected Marvel miniseries.
