Carnage (voiced by Scott Cleverdon, and performed by Woody Harrelson) is one of Spider-Man's many enemies. He was once a madman named Cletus Kassidy, who went insane. After he was arrested, Kassidy became cell mates with Eddie Brock. One day, the symbiote reunited with Eddie Brock and became Venom, but a small piece that reproduced bonded with Kassidy, and became Carnage. He has all the same skill as Spider-Man, and Venom, including the ability to morph his hands and body into weapons, and grow new ones every time.
Powers and Abilities[]
Carnage takes on the powers and abilities of his host organism. The symbiote grants the following powers:
- Superhuman Strength: Carnage is vastly stronger than the team and S.H..I.E.L.D. combined.
- Superhuman Durability: Carnage is able to take multiple hits from his enemies.
- Superhuman Agility: Carnage is able to jump 30 feet and is more agile than Venom.
- Superhuman Reflexes: Carnage is very flexible maybe due to his host Peter.
- Webbing Generation: Carnage can shoot strands of its substance in the form of "webbing"
- Wall-Crawling: Carnage is able to climb most surfaces like Venom and Spider-Man
- ESP (Spider-Sense): Carnage possesses an extrasensory ability similar to Spider-Man’s spider-sense.
- Shapeshifting: Carnage can change his size and shape. He can also do this without a host.
- Constituent-Matter Manipulation (Multiple Tendrils): This ability was the primary method of attack by Carnage; this formed his symbiotic costume into long whip-like tendrils that acted as limbs so as to be more effective against opponents, ensnaring and lashing them.
- Spike Generation: Carnage can generate a couple of spikes from his body.
- Stretchable Tongue: Carnage can stretch out his tongue.
- Host Take-Over: Carnage has the ability to latch onto anyone and use their powers while taking control of their bodies.
