Deadpool vs. Carnage #1

Two of Marvel's most unpredictable and dangerous characters come face-to-face on this striking cover by Glenn Fabry, which puts Carnage and Deadpool nose-to-nose in an intensely close, teeth-bared confrontation — the symbiote's jagged grin and glowing eyes bearing down on the Merc with a Mouth in a way that makes the tension feel almost uncomfortably personal. Writer Cullen Bunn and artist Salva Espín bring these wildly mismatched adversaries together in what promises to be one of 2014's most frenetic Marvel matchups. The "Parental Advisory: Not for Kids!" banner says everything you need to know about the tone this series is setting from issue one.
