Extreme Carnage: Agony #1

Part 7 of the eight-chapter Extreme Carnage crossover event, this issue puts the symbiote Agony front and center in a striking cover by Skan — a crimson, cracked-symbiote figure with wild flowing red hair strides through a smoldering, rubble-strewn landscape, holding aloft a green mask with quiet menace. The imagery is genuinely unsettling and atmospheric, perfectly suited to a solo spotlight on one of the more intriguing symbiotes in Marvel's roster. Writer Alyssa Wong and artists Fran Galán and Danilo S. Beyruth bring their talents to bear on a chapter that promises some dark and compelling symbiote storytelling.
