10 Things Everyone Gets Wrong About Carnage

1. He Is The Most Powerful Symbiote

Carnage may be powerful but he doesn't hold a candle against the deadliest symbiote in the universe, Zzzxx. (If you think that name is hard to say, it was changed to Zzxz later for absolutely no reason.)

In the story, Kingbreaker, Zzzxx is introduced as one of the prisoners of The Sh'iar Empire. Zzzxx has the same powers as any other Klyntar, but to a far higher degree.

As hard as it is to believe, Zzzxx is actually more evil and twisted than Carnage. Although a symbiote feeds off the adrenalin of its host, Zzzxx prefers to eat the brain of the one he is merged to. As he fights, his host begs for death as Zzzxx slowly devours their brain.

The Sh'iar stated that Zzzxx is in the top five most dangerous beings in the galaxy. Considering The Sh'iar have battled Omega-level mutants, interdimensional parasites, and The Phoenix Force, that should give you an idea of this Klyntar's power.

When an evil sentient world was chasing The Sh'iar, Zzzxx single-handedly destroyed the entire planet in a matter of seconds.
