Carnage for my Nephew

[DavidTheDavid]

So my Nephew is a Carnage fan and says he has Carnage's first appearance, but he thinks it's in an Ultimate Spider-Man comic. I don't know anything about anything about the Ultimate series of Marvel title, but I do know that Carnage was first seen in ASM 360 and 361 (not counting the Cletus Kasasy from earlier).

 

So if I wanted to get my nephew a cool Carnage comic, what should it be? 361 is a cool cover. Any others that are great covers? Or a cool story arc? Or important in some way?

 

Thanks, folks!

ASM 361 for sure, would also be cool if you got him 362 and 363 with it. All of those are iconic Carnage covers.

Get him the Maximum Carnage graphic novel if you're not looking to break the bank.

361 for sures. You could prob even find Bagley at a con to sign it.

When I first read the title of this thread I thought that your nephew was going through a rough time with something. Now after reading, I'm glad to hear I was wrong.

 

 

Oh, and definitely a 361. That's THE Carnage book to have, IMO, and a nice VF/NM copy is decently affordable. 9.8's aren't that crazy, either, just yet, fwiw.

Thanks, all. Much appreciated.

361 is definitely the first appearance of Carnage. shouldn't run you too much for an ungraded copy. graded at 9.8 your looking in the $200 to a tad more for one.

 

also the new Carnage Axis series has been kick !!! i've been really enjoying it. i however don't like the way they make his feet look in the this new series... the whole toes things just looks odd to me.

I think I may have an extra copy of Spider-Man Unlimited #1 (Maximum Carnage Part One) if you're interested.

361 is no question the one to get.

 

There is also a TPB that collects 360-363 and some Venom issues.

 

I love the cover to 361.
