that was just so they could get rid of one of them. it's about carnage, and in the end, he's gotta die, you can't end his story line with venom or spidey dying and then leave.
but venom is better, he looks the part, and acts the part.
In the arc Venom vs Carnage, which is the last arc to feature them both, venom and carnage fight twice. The first fight carnage comes out victorious by throwing venom hundreds of yards into the river. The second fight venom wins by pushing carnage's face into the electrical rail. This is after all of the upgrades that venom has got over the pat few years. So the two symbiotes sound to be about the same strength.
When Carnage threw Venom into the reaver Venom was not even fighting, he was only trying to reason with Carnage and telling crap about father-son relationship, so i hardly can call that victory.
And one more thing, in Venom vs Carnage books Venom was not upgrated. This book had some strange changes. Authors forgot about Black Cat's fights with Venom and Carnage before, it seemd she meets him for the first time. And they also forgot some other things, including Venom being upgrated.
Where are all these stats coming from? They all sound like crap to me. I will agree that Carnage is stronger than Venom, but the two of them are so close in strength that it almost doesn't matter how much stronger either one is from the other. Too many stories depict both Venom and Carnage whopping each other's asses. It is ridiculous to state that either Venom or Carnage is above or even close to 25 tons.
Maximum Carnage for me would probobly rate around 7 out 10 for me, don't get me wrong I loved the story, it had some issues kind of dragged on and i think that it could have been told in less issues.
