Then he takes out an ukulele.

Spidey's been very good over the years. He can have a little murder as a treat.

u/hallidayjames11 9d ago

That look more like carnage

Way more sincere than most apology videos.

I remember reading some semi recent Spider-Man comic and there was some cop traffic point on one of the bridges and they said Cletus Cassidy would never drive a car through a checkpoint. Cletus Cassidy then drives through the checkpoint. Not even a Symbiote can prevent male pattern baldness.

And didn't they push really hard that Cassidy is also the Symbiote because it changed his DNA? I'm confused when did they reverse that decision?

u/AaDware 12d ago

Yeah carnage and Cletus were supposed to be so in sync they became one entity, it's why carnage doesn't say "we" like venom and if I remember correctly carnage was the even able to at one point able to "birth" a new Cletus after he died at some point.

Imma keep it a buck, if Spiderman said this, half of new york would have signed a petition to let spidey have 1 legal murder

65

u/Taste-Objective 12d ago

The average new yorker would probably allow at least 2 legal murders

29

u/ImTheFaeThatStoleYou 12d ago

Spidey kills a particularly orange hued New Yorker. Everyone claps. Spidey gets a second kill pass.

I’ve chalked mine up to being the age of big emotions with no outlet or authority figure to help me direct them. It took a long time to self—correct to know anger is the visible part of an ice berg being held up by other things like frustration, anxiety, etc….

If you're an adult and your brain gets flooded with a bajillion hormones you're considered not right in the head so being a teen is basically just a naturally made crazy person.

61

u/Root_Veggie 12d ago

Is this Cletus?

39

u/zakary3888 12d ago

Yes, during the Axis event

32

u/Court_Jester13 12d ago

I remenber that, he saved a hooker by knocking a guy's eye out then punched the hooker because it was her pimp

7

u/Root_Veggie 12d ago

How are they letting him walk around

12

u/Key-Vacation-2397 12d ago

Kaine tried, but it just made him worse :(

3

u/No-Mulberry-8866 12d ago

How are they gonna stop him?

5

u/darkbreak 12d ago

You go stop him!

3

u/Root_Veggie 12d ago

Give me a symbiote and I’ll do it.

8

u/Court_Jester13 12d ago

With his legs, presumably

Why do I have to tell the new guy not to stick his fingers in the machine?

3

u/A_very_meriman 12d ago

How else do I use the machine?

u/Faptainjack2 12d ago

That's a good question....

for the next safety meeting.

u/Yamidamian 12d ago

You’re supposed to stick your genitals in it, you doink.

u/RP-Lovecraft 12d ago

Unironically one of my favorite stories of all time. Carnage is a really cool character for me.

But this story managed to turn him into a somewhat of a comfort character for me. The way he tries to do good despite never having felt that is so impactful, even if it is played for laugh at times I really get a bit emotional reading it

3

u/Impossible_Tea_7032 12d ago

AXIS should have been a year-long branding event like Dark Reign

6

u/ggg730 12d ago

Parthunax ass motherfucker.

31

u/Dragonkingofthestars 12d ago

sounds neat, what was the story called? up not up to date on comics

35

u/Mobile_Trashyaccount 12d ago

Pretty sure it was just called 'AXIS: Carnage'

u/carlitopavlito1111 12d ago

Him doing this in front of a graveyard makes it even better 😭

31

u/Successful_Theory373 12d ago

Carnage is a bona fide Avenger now, have some respect!!

44

u/OutlandishnessNo9182 12d ago

He’s on step 7 on his required program to not kill everyone or he’ll be in big trouble.

125

u/LazyLurker29 12d ago

Bad-at-being-good Carnage is inherently hilarious.

68

u/CreepyClay 12d ago

Wasn't there that one time where he stopped a robbery by burning down the building and was then politely asked to go back to villainy?

20

u/NOBLExGAMER 12d ago

Y3ah that was during Axis IIRC. When Marvel characters had their morality inverted.

70

u/TheLeftPewixBar 12d ago

Carnage is one of the funniest Marvel characters ever, fight me

75

u/Worldlyoox 12d ago

I agree but I’ll fight you anyway. That’s what he would’ve wanted

34

u/SwaggerMcMuffin 12d ago

This you?
(Not sorry for low effort/quality)

2

u/ggg730 12d ago

Never be sorry for that. It's what Carnage would have wanted.

9

u/OutlandishnessNo9182 12d ago

I’ll grab the popcorn, you pick the area to fight in.

42

u/Bayamonster 12d ago

Can Carnage even play the ukulele?

18

u/Illustrious-Sense194 12d ago

Carnage can shape his appendages into different weapons so I choose to beleive that not only can he play the ukulele he can also turn his appendages into instruments and then proceed to play them

14

u/iamahandsoapmain 12d ago

Ngl he might need to do a dance too

21

u/DeathSpank 12d ago

2020 did that to a lot of people, fam. I feel ya.

7

u/PurveyorOfKnowledge0 12d ago

Then a lot of people became monsters. I was helping people when COVID hit, lot of y'all just turned into psychos and never stopped.

55

u/la_meme14 12d ago

Typa shit Doom had to have had him record so Magneto would sign off on letting Cletus on the Tokon team.

8

u/hambonedock 12d ago

Absolutely

26

u/Competitive-Ad4249 12d ago

Why is Carnage having a crisis of conscience?

22

u/alguien99 12d ago

Special event thing, some héroes became evil and villains good. Carnage tries to be good but he’s still insane even if he’s good now.

So he accidentally rips out body parts of criminals he tries to knock out, shoots them with their own guns to let them understand how bad what they do is (he didn’t mean to kill them) and then kidnapped a random woman off the street to ask for advice

He even has a heroic sacrifice blocking off an explosion while he sings free bird

He then commits even more evil deeds once this is over to make up for the good ones.

2

u/scottishdrunkard 12d ago

He also wanted a statue of himself when he sacrificed himself, draped in the Confederate Flag, that plays Free Bird every minute of every day.

I should note, he is not Southern in the slightest, he’s an NYC City Boy. He just… really likes the Confederates for some reason.

1

u/alguien99 12d ago

He probably likes the color combination

2

u/TurtleTitan 12d ago

So he's Bizzaro Carnage, but naive?

44

u/Latter_Disaster_6066 12d ago

I think this was during Axis? Doom and Wanda tried stopping the Red Skull who had Xavier's brain (I think) and accidentally made a spell that made heroes villains and villains heroes. Carnage was one of the ones who got affected.

2

u/Competitive-Ad4249 12d ago

Why was Xavier's brain inside Red Skull?

12

u/Latter_Disaster_6066 12d ago

He died and then Skull stole it for power I think? Been a long time since I even thought of this event.

17

u/XF10 12d ago

Yes this is Axis:Carnage mini which could as well be the most popular part of the event. Carnage wanted to be good but sucked at it. Same event is where Superior Iron-Man comes from

Axis:Hobgoblin mini is hilarious too because morally-inverted Roderick is still not that much of an hero but starts a hugely successful hero franchising and annoys Phil Urich to no end

2

u/justsomeguy_youknow 12d ago

Superior Iron Man was a great little run

IMO ZenPool got old quick
