Immediately following the mission’s conclusion, Wraith contacts Peter, indicating she needs some personal time to search for “The Flame.” She shares potential aliases for The Flame, naming Archie Abel, Walter Wachtman, and notably, Cletus Cassidy. While the first two names aren’t recognized in Spider-Man’s comic or cinematic lore, fans might have picked up on a clue from a prior mission: a book depicting a red demon reminiscent of Venom, suggesting that The Flame might indeed be Cletus Cassidy, the future Carnage.
This raises the questions: Will Carnage make an appearance in the next Marvel’s Spider-Man sequel? Or could we anticipate a DLC expansion with Carnage as the main antagonist? Time will tell.
