Venom returns, and a new symbiote, Carnage appears.

9.0

By pharaoh2, Jan 07, 2006

The show starts with the police trying to catch Cledus Kassidy, a madman criminal. Spider-Man destroys the bomb that Kassidy had and the police arrest him. He's thrown into the prison that Eddie Brock, AKA Venom, is in.

Connors has a new invention that can transport things from one place to another. While in prison, Brock becomes Venom again with help from Baron Mordo and Dormammu. Venom begins to attack the city. A new person, War Machine, comes to aid Spider-Man in his fight. He almost succeeds in defeating Venom when Kassidy, now a symbiote called Carnage, stops him. He came to be Carnage by the help of Mordo and Dormammu. The episode ends with Carnage holding Spider-Man up with one hand while his other hand has taken the form of an axe. (That information probably isnt accurate, but I tried the best I could.)

This was a great episode. I've been waiting to see Carnage for a while. He's insane. It is revealed that Mordo and Dormammu helped to send the rocket that the symboite Venom was on back to Earth and that the symbiote reproduced into Carnage. This episode had a lot of action and a suspensful ending. The character development in this episode was great, as Kassidy has become Carnage. Venom and Carnage might fight in the next episode. The plot was very good, too. Overall, great action, good character development, and good plot.

9/10.

NOTES (3)
ADD NOTES
- Official debut of Carnage in a Spider-Man cartoon.
  EDIT SHARE
- Robert Hays and James Avery reprise their roles as Tony Stark/Iron Man and James Rhodes/War Machine from the Iron Man series. Avery was replaced on the show by Dorian Harewood partway through season one, but returns to the role because Harewood already plays Tombstone in the Spider-Man series.
  EDIT SHARE
- This is Iron Man's third appearance on a Marvel cartoon (other than his own). The first was an episode of "Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends", the second was a non-speaking role on a "Fantastic Four" episode and the third was an episode of the "Incredible Hulk." However, this is Tony Stark's fourth appearance, since he didn't show up as Iron Man in the previous episode, "The Spot."

ALLUSIONS (1)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Madame Web: A warrior keeps his friends close... and his enemies closer.
  
  Madame Web's advice to Spider-Man is a reference to the dialogue from The Godfather: Part II when Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) tells Frank Pentangeli (Michael V. Gazzo) that his father taught him to "keep your friends close... and your enemies closer."
