The Amazing Spider-Man Epic Collection #23

Plot

The coming of Carnage! When Venom’s offspring transforms psychopath Cletus Kasady into a symbiotic serial killer, Peter Parker makes the hardest decision of his life — and turns to Venom for help! But will Eddie Brock join the fight…or continue his single-minded mission to squash Spider-Man? Plus: Spider-Man enters the Lizard’s lair — and faces a powerful enemy alongside the New Warriors! And when Spidey is haunted by Kraven the Hunter, can he save the soul of his fiercest foe? Then, when familiar faces make a startling return, Spidey must investigate a painful piece of his past — assuming he can get through Taskmaster and the Red Skull!
