Marvel Comics has a new project launching this summer with the July 2021 debut of Extreme Carnage Alpha #1. The new project brings together the five Life Symbiotes as they face their greatest challenge yet thanks to Carnage. While the artist hasn’t been named yet, the book is written by Eisner-nominated writer Phillip Kennedy Johnson(Alien). Check out teaser artwork by Leinil Francis Yu below!
“After King in Black, everything we thought we knew about the symbiotes will have changed. Every man, woman, and child in the Marvel Universe will finally understand the massive threat the symbiotes represent, and the symbiotes that are still among us are now in the crosshairs of some extremely angry, scared, and powerful forces,” Johnson explained. “In the pages of EXTREME CARNAGE, we’ll not only explain what Carnage is in this new, post-King in Black era, but also see a return-to-form for the deadliest symbiotes that have ever lived while putting them on a lethal new path for the future.”
Plot Concept: The Life Foundation symbiotes have always tried to reconcile the sometimes-noble intentions of their hosts with the often-bloodthirsty impulses of the symbiotes. But the Life Foundation symbiotes aren’t the only symbiotes who find themselves reinvented after KING IN BLACK and Carnage has plans for his younger siblings.
