And carnage has at least always looked cool, and he looks awesome with this art.
I think Carnage is interesting when portrayed as a huge threat. The premise of a straight up serial killer gaining super powers and being thrown into the mix with all of these comic characters was a good concept.

I thought Maximum Carnage was great (though I was much younger when I read it. I'd like to again), but I have heard others say the same as you about his character going nowhere. Apparently it just became really one dimensional and boring?
Anyways, I still always liked his presence and I think he could be written well, like you say.
