Venom vs. Carnage #2

In "Cops and Monsters," Venom and Carnage clash over the fate of a newborn symbiote, their violent rivalry threatening to tear apart the city. Unbeknownst to them, Carnage’s offspring has already bonded with NYPD officer Patrick Mulligan—just as he’s drawn into a confrontation with the Black Cat, setting off a transformation that will redefine his life. Written by Peter Milligan and brought to life with bold, visceral art by Clayton Crain, this 2004 issue delivers a tense, high-stakes escalation in the symbiote war, with a cover by Crain that captures the chaos in striking detail.
