Synopsis for "Carnage Reigns, Part 6 of 7"

Meeting in Jamaica, Queens @gooeyguy430, @carnijftw, and @symbiGOAT212 express excitement at having been chosen by Cletus - who sent three Extrembiote-infused suits of Iron Man Armor to their doorsteps... only for the three suits to suddenly engulf them, Cletus speaking through them to say that it's time for his new acolytes to have some fun.

Transformed into an armored symbiote-dragon, Extreme Carnage gloats that he's finally starting to feel like himself again and that the more they try to stop him the more powerful he becomes. In the streets below, Miles carries the unconscious Normie Osborn -- whose symbiote, Rascal -- had an adverse reaction to connecting to Cletus' -- and frets to the Scorpion that without the Red Goblin they can't stop Cletus. Ordering the other Cape Killers to earn their keep, Taskmaster fires a volley of explosive arrows at Extreme Carnage, who laughs them off. Caught by Electro, Taskmaster tells her to fly faster only for her to unceremoniously drop him. Flying over to Miles, Electro says that Agent Julia Gao mentioned he has bioelectric powers too. Miles expresses reluctance since the last time he zapped Extreme Carnage it resulted in a huge explosion, but Electro snaps at him to just give her his hand. Complying, Miles sends all the energy he has left into her, Electro unleashing a massive bolt of lightning that strikes Extreme Carnage. A huge explosion fills the sky... only for Extreme Carnage to emerge completely unharmed and quip that all Electro did was get his attention. Extreme Carnage unleashes a flurry of tendrils towards her and Miles, impaling her through the chest. As she plunges towards the ground, Hightail catches her with her super-speed. Taskmaster scoffs that Electro deserved to get stabbed for dropping him, Frye sneering that she'd do it again in a heartbeat. Quipping that Frye is a lot funner than the other Electro, Taskmaster tells her not to die and pulls out a high-tech RPG launcher he stole from Stark Unlimited HQ. Extreme Carnage casually bats the projectile away, sending it into the side of a nearby building, and Spider-Man and Hightail work together to save the civilians inside as it collapses.

Firing energy beams at Extreme Carnage, the Scorpion mocks Cletus -- saying that the serial killer must be losing his edge for being unable to kill him even after turning into a kaiju. Annoyed, Extreme Carnage lacerates him with several tendrils, knocking him out of the air and sending him crashing to the ground near Miles and Hightail. With the Scorpion unconscious, Hightail radios Agent Gao asking for orders, and is told to hold the line since she and Spider-Man are the last remaining operatives. Sergeant Ahmed interrupts, saying her team has picked up three incoming Stark-tech energy signatures, Agent Gao wondering what Tony Stark is doing. Interrupting as he carries the Scorpion to safety, Miles wonders why Iron Man would be headed away from the battle. Agent Gao sneers that she doesn't care to understand how or why superpowered people do what they do, only that they keep out of police business; Miles asking if she seriously thinks that Iron Man wouldn't be able to help turn the tide. Snapping at Miles to shut up and hold the line, Agent Gao boards a helicopter and tells her soldiers she wants the Red Goblin and Kenneth Neely loaded up and Cletus Kasady six feet under where he belongs.

Agent Gao's helicopter strafes Extreme Carnage with autocannon fire, but he ignores them -- saying he's looking forward to eating Miles after having gotten a taste of his flesh earlier. The helicopter pilot tells Agent Gao they have an incoming Stark-tech signature, Agent Gao wondering if it's the three signals from earlier. As Extreme Carnage strikes Miles and Hightail with his tail, preparing to devour them before they can recover, Iron Man -- clad in a knight-themed suit of armor -- arrives and blasts Extreme Carnage back. Greeting Miles, Iron Man bombards Extreme Carnage with repulsor beams; saying that he knew it would only be a matter of time before Cletus decided to take the stolen Extrembiote for a test drive and that he built the suit he's wearing specifically for that occasion. Calling himself a dragonslayer, Iron Man forms a spear and shield out of energy and attacks Extreme Carnage, Agent Gao marvelling that he seems to be winning. Iron Man blasts Extreme Carnage with a volley of energy beams, engulfing him in a huge explosion that leaves the cyborg symbiote-dragon crumpled on the ground, seemingly dead. Crash-landing behind Miles and Hightail, Iron Man asks Miles to use his Venom Touch to recharge his armor's drained power cells. As Miles uses what little power he's managed to regain to jumpstart Iron Man's armor and helps him to his feet, Iron Man says he didn't do bad for a rookie hero and says that if Miles keeps up the good work he'll be one of his top five favorite Spider-People. As Miles wonders if there's really that many of them, he's cut off as Extreme Carnage impales him from behind with a tendril, sneering that Miles should've learned never to turn his back on him. The Extrembiote's armor shattering, Extreme Carnage snarls that he's done playing around and is going to take his madness to the rest of the world. As Miles crumples, Iron Man's armor scans his body and detects multiple fatal injuries. As Hightail asks if Iron Man can heal Miles, Tony Stark replies that the bad news is that he never went to medical school, but the good news is that he built AI that can do the work for him. Telling B.O.S.S. to begin the nanite transfer, Iron Man explains that he's putting Miles into a high-tech full-body cast that will heal his wounds. As Miles asks what kind of cast he's talking about, Iron Man says that perhaps "suit" would've been a better word as Miles finds himself clad in a black and yellow Iron Spider armor.
