Carnage Modern Era Epic Collection: Prophecy Of The Darkhold

Comic Script by Cullen Bunn
Carnage is back — more terrifying than ever!

Cletus Kasady is behind bars! The Carnage symbiote is in quarantine! But we all know that’s never going to last, right? It’s time to get the band back together — just in time for Carnage to take on Deadpool in ultimate battle of good crazy vs. bad crazy! Then, as the events of AXIS invert Marvel’s heroes and villains, will Carnage emerge as a force for good? If so, why has he kidnapped one of New York City’s most beloved news anchors? The Sin-Eater returns! Carnage discovers Nova’s secret identity and sets out to ruin Sam Alexander’s life! And Cletus Kasady resumes his killing spree, leaving a trail of bodies to follow for the FBI’s Anti-Carnage Task Force — including military hero/astronaut John Jameson and a reformed Eddie Brock! But what does the Darkhold Cult have planned for everybody’s favorite psychopath?

Writer Cullen Bunn first worked in comics with artist Brian Hurtt on Oni Press’s The Damned and its follow-up, The Damned: Prodigal Sons, as well as The Sixth Gun. Now one of Marvel’s leading talents, he has co-written Captain America with Ed Brubaker and Venom with Rick Remender, whom he later succeeded as writer, and assembled the fan-favorite, all-female Fearless Defenders. Bunn launched Magneto into his own series for All-New Marvel NOW!, then made him the star of a darker-than-ever Uncanny X-Men roster. Bunn has joined the ranks of iconic Deadpool writers with a diverse range of limited series featuring the Merc with a Mouth and the ongoing Deadpool & the Mercs for Money.

Rick Spears is a writer of comics and graphic novels including Teenagers From Mars, Dead West, Filler, The Pirates of Coney Island, Repo, Black Metal, various projects for Marvel and DC, and the ongoing series The Auteur from Oni Press.

Since graduating from the Joe Kubert School of Art, Michael Henderson has racked up credits at almost every major comic company in America. He broke in to the comics mainstream in 2011 when he penciled the digital one-shot Spider-Man: A Meal to Die For at Marvel. He has contributed to DC’s Masters of the Universe and IDW’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Henderson and Joshua Williamson created the digital-only noir series Masks & Mobsters for Monkeybrain Comics. 

Kim Jacinto honed his skills as a conceptual artist. Since breaking into comics, the Filipino artist has illustrated Venom, Indestructible Hulk, Carnage Annual and Thunderbolts for Marvel. Angela, Queen of Hel is his longest Marvel run so far.
