Cletus Kasady is a fictional supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character is usually depicted as an enemy of Spider-Man and Venom. Created by writer David Michelinie and artist Erik Larsen, the character first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #344 as the first and most infamous host of the Carnage symbiote. A sociopathic and sadistic serial killer, Kasady shared a cell with Eddie Brock during his imprisonment, and merged with the offspring of the Venom symbiote after it came to be bonded with Brock again. Kasady and Carnage were a perfect match, and the symbiote did nothing more than to increase Kasady's already sociopathic characteristics. Combined with the fact that the Carnage symbiote is more powerful than Venom due to the symbiotes' nature, this makes Carnage one of the most deadly and dangerous individuals that Spider-Man or Venom ever faced, with the pair often being forced to work together to stand a chance against him.
