10 Things Everyone Gets Wrong About Carnage
9. Carnage Has No Family Besides Venom
Carnage is often known as The Spawn of Venom, implying he is the only offspring. Although he was the first child of Venom, he wasn't exactly the last.
A corrupt corporation called The Life Foundation kidnapped Venom, believing they could utilise his symbiote to create super-soldiers. When they learned that the Klyntar give birth asexually, they imprisoned Venom until he spawned five offspring; Phage, Agony, Lasher, Scream, and Riot. Each generation of symbiote is supposed to be stronger than the previous one, which is why Carnage is more powerful than Venom. However, since these five symbiotes didn't bond with hosts for very long, their strength pales compared to Carnage.
But these aren't the only members of Carnage's family. In Venom vs Carnage, Cletus Kasady learned that his symbiote was pregnant. Knowing his offspring had the potential to be stronger than him, Kasady did everything in his power to kill his spawn.
After Carnage's son was born, it merged with a police officer called Pat Mulligan to become Toxin. Thankfully, Toxin does not harbour the same malicious side as his father and grandfather, and has allied against Venom and Carnage several times.
