This July, Clay McLeod Chapman and artist Chris Mooneyham joining forces for a one-shot focused on Scream called Extreme Carnage: Scream #1. It’s part of an event spinning out of King in Black told via one-shot stories and will be available in comic book shops on July 14th. Earlier today, Marvel revealed Flash Thompson, recently resurrected, was making his return in the main Extreme Carnage title written by Phillip Kennedy Johnson.
So what’s it about?
Andi Benton has always been a fighter, and that’s never been truer than since she bonded to the Scream symbiote a few months ago. But even after Absolute Carnage and King in Black, Andi has never had to fight like this — and, worse still, if she can’t save her symbiote from whatever unseen force is affecting it, she might have to do it alone… Here’s what Chapman had to say about continuing the thrilling saga of Andi Benton:
“Extreme Carnage is a dream—scream?—come true. Not only am I utterly in awe of the sheer talent involved in mapping out this massive event, but I feel honored to be able to return to the character of Scream and further explore the complex relationship dynamics between them and Andi Benton,” Chapman said via a press release sent to AIPT. “These two characters have such a profound bond with one another, whether fused together or torn apart, that every time I get to tell another chapter in their legacy feels like an immense privilege. Viva la Scream!”
