Why: David Michelinie How: Mark Bagley

Having forged a twisted bond with Shriek and the razor-fanged Doppelganger; Carnage is set on painting the town red with Spider-man's blood -- and the innards of anyone else unfortunate enough to come across his killer family's path!
When Spider-Man was kicked from a high-rise rooftop during a skirmish with Shriek and Doppelganger, he inadvertently found his first allies in Cloak and Dagger. Alas, their intervention quickly came at the ultimate price when Dagger was seemingly destroyed in battle with the villains!
Nursing broken ribs and a crushing sense of responsibility, Spider-Man must return to the New York City skyline alone in order to hunt his out-of-control lethal foes. He'll stop at nothing to defeat them, but he didn't count on running in to another of his most dangerous enemies: Demogoblin!

Infinite Wars: Swamp Thing vs Scarecrow
SWAMP THING versus SCARECROW
Urban Jungle (DC)
Where: Swamp Thing #19 When: June 2013
Why: Charles Soule How: Kano
The Story So Far...
A mysterious figure known as The Seeder has been leading Swamp Thing on a grim quest across the globe. As champion of The Green, it has been Swamp Thing's solemn duty to restore balance by destroying the lush crops created in unnatural environments.
Weary of his mission after destroying a war torn tropical rainforest in the Sahara; Swamp Thing seeks the solace of the man-made cities he left behind in his former life. Thus, he travels the network of The Green to arrive in Metropolis, where night has fallen, and the Botanical Garden sits quietly nestled within the concrete jungle.
The solitary, after hours walk reconnects him with fond memories of past visits when Alec Holland was a mere grad student. He hears rustling excitement shimmering through the trees as their defender walks near, but the rats gnawing at banyan roots aren't the only threat. An interloper has broken in to prune samples of a rare poisonous flower -- The Scarecrow!

Why: Alan Moore How: Brian Bolland
The Story So Far...
So this guy walks into a bar... He had a plum job working as a Lab Assistant for Ace Chemicals, but all he wants to be is a comedian. So what did he do? Up and quit his job to line up an audition! Only catch is: His girl Jeannie is waiting at home -- six months pregnant in a cruddy one-room apartment with the rent overdue!
So this guy goes to his audition with everything on the line. He's real nervous. He blows a punch line. He's dead! Nobody's laughing! The dream is over before it even began! He goes back home and all Jeannie can say is "oh". Guy feels like a total loser! She makes some joke about him being good in bed, but now all this guy can think about is needing cash. So where's he gonna come up with the loot? That's the joke!
After running around town humiliating himself the guy winds up right back where he started: Ace Chemicals! Only this time it's after hours, and a couple of mobsters convinced him to put on a tuxedo and red dome to guide them to the card store next door. It was bound to go bad, but at least it'll make a great story!

Where: Web of Spider-Man #101 When: June 1993 Why: Terry Kavanagh How: Alex Saviuk
The Story So Far...
Incarceration in the Ravencroft Institute's maximum security facility proved a temporary stay when serial killer Cletus Kasady was reunited with his alien symbiote.
Carnage's escape from Ravencroft was a total bloodbath, but not everyone who crossed his path that day was part of the massacre. He found a kindred spirit in the villainess Shriek, forging a homicidal relationship that soon became a family with the adoption of the six-armed, razor-fanged Doppelganger!
News of the escape prompts Spider-Man to take to the New York City skyline, but a chance encounter with Shriek & Doppelganger leaves the web-slinger worse for wear at the bottom of a building! Rescued by Cloak & Dagger, the web-slinger has much needed back-up as the villains close-in for Round 2!
