"As far as event books go, this is the coolest, darkest, most heavy metal, Cthulhu dark horror thing I’ve ever been able to do. I still can’t believe that Marvel is letting us go as dark and scary as we’re going." -- Donny Cates

"And as far as inspiration goes, I've said it before and will say it again; Carnage: Mind Bomb. It's a one-shot by Warren Ellis and Kyle Hotz, and it's the first time that, as a child of the '90s, I read a Carnage story and was genuinely terrified by it. Before that he was like this EXTREME version of Venom. You had the Maximum Carnage video game and all the tie-ins. So it was easy to write him off as this dime-a-dozen psychopath character, but then Ellis got a hold of him in Mind Bomb, and it is the most disturbing look into the mind of a person -- people forget about this -- who was Marvel's greatest serial killer even before he got a symbiote. There's a line in Absolute Carnage #1 that describes his body count as one that only dictators and plagues can hope to achieve." -- Donny Cates

“Cletus Kasady is back, and he is deadlier than he’s ever been. Absolute Carnage encompasses every single character who has ever worn a symbiote and every symbiote that has ever been, going all the way back to when Peter found the black suit. Going from there to Maximum Carnage to Venomized to everything…everyone is a target.” -- Donny Cates
