History: Cletus Kasady was serving 11 consecutive life terms in prison,
in which he was Eddie Brock's (AKA
Venom) cellmate. When the alien symbiote came to break Eddie out of jail,
it left behind "child" that
bonded with Kasady creating Carnage. Kasady then broke out of jail in attempt
to spread his message of
chaos. His thought being, if you have the guts, you can do anything. Up
to, and including murder.
Spider-Man eventually encountered him, but was unable to stop him. He then
enlisted the help of Venom
and the Fantastic Four and was able to capture him and imprison him in Ravencroft
asylum. Carnage has
escaped at least two more times in attempt to spread his message. He has,
on both occations been thwarted
by Spider-Man and returned to the asylum.
