Catrall shows up because he thinks that he can destroy the serum in the firewall that is holding Casady. Catrall accidentally frees Carnage without destroying the serum. Carnage fights with Spider-Man, but escapes before he can be defeated. Spider-Man looks all over New York, finds Catrall, and finds out about the experiments that led to the serum and that Carnage found Catrall first, and took the serum.
