Torment is, at this point, dead. We see his funeral. We don't have any other big reveals I.E. connections to Spider-Man or other Marvel characters. He met Carnage on an encrypted chat room. His motives also seem to be inconsistent with what we've seen before ("the quiet is all I desire") but maybe that's down to Joe Kelly writing the character instead of Soule.

There is a bit of a hook at the end where we see Torment's niece/little sister (it's unclear) also seeing spirals so who knows if that will be followed up on.

I appreciate that in the end, Torment was just completely off his rocker and not something more profound.
I won’t miss him and I hope he doesn’t come back somehow (supernaturally revived and enhanced?)
I hope the girl at the end actually uses her abilities wisely and beneficially if indeed she returns.
