Now that ABSOLUTE CARNAGE is in its second month, it's clear that Cletus Kasady AKA Carnage is not just a threat, but gaining strength and allies as he wreaks havoc and targets everyone who has ever hosted a symbiote. The first act is over, casualties are mounting, and our heroes need to find a way to stop Carnage, Knull, and their many, many followers.

Here's every issue you'll need to read to stay caught up with ABSOLUTE CARNAGE in September!

ABSOLUTE CARNAGE: MILES MORALES #2: Written by Saladin Ahmed, Art by Federico Vincentini, Cover by Clayton Crain – on sale September 25

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #30: Written by Nick Spencer, Art/Cover by Ryan Ottley – on sale September 25
