Cebulski last week, but it’s all but confirmed today as Flash Thompson is the “classified” character to appear in Phillip Kennedy Johnson’s Extreme Carnage: Alpha series.

“After King in Black, everything we thought we knew about the symbiotes will have changed. Every man, woman, and child in the Marvel Universe will finally understand the massive threat the symbiotes represent, and the symbiotes that are still among us are now in the crosshairs of some extremely angry, scared, and powerful forces,” Johnson explained via press release sent to AIPT. “In the pages of EXTREME CARNAGE, we’ll not only explain what Carnage is in this new, post-King in Black era, but also see a return-to-form for the deadliest symbiotes that have ever lived while putting them on a lethal new path for the future.”
Along with this news comes the main cover by Dave Rapoza.
