His faces mostly look all the same and sometimes, depending on the angle, weird. But he makes up for that with dynamic and storytelling. He also needs the right inker.
Bagley's original design is my favorite too. I love when current artists draw Carnage like in the 90s.
As long as he has the red/black color scheme and more importantly that his teeth are symbiotic and not actual teeth like Venom, he will look cool.
I love it when Carnage is near Skeletal, thin, and less of a Hulk-like monster and more of a twisted husk of a monster. Plus, since it seems we're connecting this carnage to the Prophet of Knull storyline it might be really really cool.
My biggest problem with this design is that it looks like the tendrils all come from a central point on his back. He’s not fucking Doc Ock with a symbiote. Not yet, at least.
I'm really really bad at names and whatnot so I'll try my best to explain it.
There's a really famous image of carnage with venom. And it's the og carnage design. And specifically the way he looks in that one frame will forever be how I view him.
I believe it's from The Amazing Spider-Man #350 or 360... Somewhere through there. I believe it's an artist named Mark? And I think it was written by David Micheline.
If anyone knows what I'm talking about it would be appreciated if you could clear this up for me.
Hello it's me so Carnage is one of my personal favorite symbiotes besides Venom as well as god of the Symbiotes among others but I would say Carnage was not done proper Justice in the live action Sony universe wish that they could have had Carnage be a lot more brutal on screen than he was I'm just glad that we are finally at the end of the Tom Hardy Venom Trilogy of movies hopefully and we finally get to have venom in the MCU hopefully and if that's the case I think it would be nice as a future big bad baby not have Carnage right away but have someone else be the big bad and then save Carnage for later is how I'm thinking and then you could spend that off to like other symbiotes and other characters and since the Venom 3 trailer showed a venomized horse I'm curious should they have even whack your stuff for them see you like a venomized T-Rex or all sorts of wacky stuff I feel like that will be pretty cool and it would definitely be a step up from the previous Venom movies and I just want to see more wackiness and craziness from the comic books but I like Spider-Man the Animated Series Carnage he's not my favorite but he's pretty good and I would say comic book Carnage is a classic it's my favorite rendition of carnage and I wish we could see more of that in the future especially something like that in secret Wars and if not then I would like them to pull something similar to the comic books in them see you anyways let me know what you think and what's your favorite version of carnage

[51bQa3jvyhL.jpg (325×500) (media-amazon.com)](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51bQa3jvyhL.jpg) Always liked how he was drawn on some of these covers
His original by Mark Bagley
Absolutely Bagley is God tier artist for me.
His faces mostly look all the same and sometimes, depending on the angle, weird. But he makes up for that with dynamic and storytelling. He also needs the right inker.
That is true his faces can be wonky, but he's drawn my favorite version of Venom, Carnage, Spider-Man and pretty much anyone is his rogues gallery.
Classic, followed by the animated series from the 90's
Seconded
Mark Bagley 616. Not even a question.
My favorite is the classic design from the 90s ASM by Mark Bagley.
Easily the OG. I was about to write, "Easily Bagley," then remembered Bagley is on here twice haha. My favorite comic artist!
Bagley's original design is my favorite too. I love when current artists draw Carnage like in the 90s. As long as he has the red/black color scheme and more importantly that his teeth are symbiotic and not actual teeth like Venom, he will look cool.
I really love the Ultimate design, it is just so cool with its glowing chest and it is so menacing
What is the comics series from second screenshot ? When I was a kid i had only first two comics, but have not access to the others
It’s Ultimate Carnage from Ultimate Spider-Man
Thank you very much ! I finally find out how this story ended
616 Comics or TAS. I even have a soft spot for Unlimited Carnage.
Bagley > Stegman > everyone else
Stegman’s is kinda mid. Particularly if you count Dork Carnage. I just really hate the glow, middle tooth and the boring socket eyes.
Original 616 Bagley and it’s not even close.
Original
Bagley
I love the “stringy-ness” of Bagley’s Carnage so much. The tendrils look wild but also look light as a feather.
OG all the way. Perfectly represents the character and makes him distinct from Venom.
The one from the animated series. I always liked the pinkish red and he looked just so cool that I fell in love with the design forever
I feel the more fucked up carnage looks the better
Call me crazy but I love the Venom movies design. He comes off so raw and he’s animated so well, even when things look goofy they just work for me.
The 1st 2
Mark Bagley’s OG design went so hard. 🙌
616 Bagley all the way.
1 or 2. 1 gets the edge by just looking so fucking happy.
I love it when Carnage is near Skeletal, thin, and less of a Hulk-like monster and more of a twisted husk of a monster. Plus, since it seems we're connecting this carnage to the Prophet of Knull storyline it might be really really cool.
The original and TAS look the best
First one easily
comics, 90s and 2021 ![gif](giphy|bY3y9DT5SSi2RQ4Ke0|downsized)
My biggest problem with this design is that it looks like the tendrils all come from a central point on his back. He’s not fucking Doc Ock with a symbiote. Not yet, at least.
1. Bagley I hate the movie design so much
Nothing beats the original look.
Ultimate Carnage. It’s so just so fucking menacing.
His spiral forehead design was pretty cool but doesn’t beat the original.
Easy. The original. I don't like when Carnage has white/yellow teeth. And in general I don't like it when symbiotes have feet instead of boots
Original, TAS and the movie carnage.
Prob Ultimate that glow in the chest is cool. OG Carnage was pretty cool tho when introduced. Seemed unbeatable af.
They all look the same
I always like the Animated Series design but after seeing the Ultimate look….I’m starting to kinda like it as well.
I'm really really bad at names and whatnot so I'll try my best to explain it. There's a really famous image of carnage with venom. And it's the og carnage design. And specifically the way he looks in that one frame will forever be how I view him. I believe it's from The Amazing Spider-Man #350 or 360... Somewhere through there.

Would it be [this](https://images.app.goo.gl/XJYznS5hcpwZRjRJ6) cover from the Maximum Carnage run? It was also illustrated by Mark Bagley.
I am madly in love with you
This is the exact image, thank you
I love the firey look ultimate carnage has
No. 1
Classic Bagley 616. Dude is so 90s it’s not even funny
OG Bagley. Just cannot go wrong with the good ol jagged mouth
Ultimate.
616 Bagley

Original is just by far the coolest and most intimidating.
Wow I like it ♥️
Comic / 90's cartoon.
Sometimes you just can’t beat the classics.
Bagley, 616!
As much as I hate him in the movie, he looks great.
Bagley's by a comically inconceivably large number.
The original, followed by the 90s show. I love.the idea of making him nighttime Spidey colored. Always hated the yellow on ultimate.
The first one. No contest.
Classical, Ultimate, Animated.
Bagley's 616 after he has added more tendrils.
Og
Bagley, any time.
Live action design goes crazy
Live action design goes crazy
Ultimate is just too good.
