Scream: Curse of Carnage #2

Two symbiote powerhouses collide on this striking cover, as Scream — her flowing amber-and-red hair whipping wildly — locks in a fierce grapple with the massive, dreadlock-tendriled figure of Carnage, both baring rows of savage, jagged teeth. Mark Bagley's pencils and Andy Owens's inks give the confrontation a visceral, kinetic energy, with the two figures coiled around each other in a struggle that feels genuinely dangerous for both. If issue one left you curious about where Scream's solo series was headed, this 2020 Marvel chapter makes the stakes unmistakably clear.
