Carnage
"I am the ultimate insanity! I am CARNAGE!"
Carnage is the spawn of Venom and one of Spiderman's most dangerous enemies. First introduced in issue 344 of The Amazing Spider, Cletus Kasady becomes the host of the symbiote calling itself Carnage after sharing a cell with Eddie Brock and, with it, has spread havoc and chaos giving Peter Parker, as well as a number of other heroes, a great challenge. If you want a look at Kasady's history then there's always his Wikipedia page but I'm going to skip to his feats now.
Amazing Spider-Man 361
Carnage is able to create an axe and throw it with fair accuracy.
Amazing Spider-Man 362
Carnage is able to overpower both Spiderman and Venom at the same time.
Spider-Man Unlimited 1
Easily restrains the twisted version of Spiderman, Doppelganger.
Web of Spider-Man 101
1: Traps a weakened Spiderman using his tendrils
The Spectacular Spider-Man 201
Strangles a helpless Demogoblin
Venom vs. Carnage 1
1-3: Carnage has discovered he is "pregnant" and Venom wants to talk about it. Carnage has other ideas and uses his tendrils to drag Venom along by the neck before flinging him into the horizon.
Venom vs. Carnage 3
1-3: Carnage takes blows from his son, Toxin, who is able to lift between 75-100 tonnes according to his Marvel power grid.
Venom vs. Carnage 4
1-2: Again, able to take blows from Toxin who is seen in a more bulky form this time as he is enraged.
New Avengers 2
Is ripped apart and left in space by Sentry yet the symbiote is able to sustain Kasady and, although Cletus has to have his legs replaced, returns in the miniseries Carnage.
Carnage USA 1
Able to bond with other people, in this instance the Avengers. This is not, however, an ability he uses often.
Carnage USA 2
1-3: After bonding with them, Carnage is able to make the Avengers his puppets.
Venom 26
1: Traps someone using his symbiote.
2-3: Easily defeats two of the Microns, a group who inhabit the Microverse.
Scarlet Spider 11
1: Displays masochistic behaviour while being stabbed by an enraged Scarlet Spider, shouting "COME ON" which shows he enjoys being given pain as well as dishing it out.
2: Shows his healing factor when he is able to stand just a few panels after being shanked by Scarlet Spider.
Venom 27
1: Carnage is able to slice up Agent Venom.
2: Able to overpower Scarlet Spider with ease, another point that suggest he was allowing Kaine to stab him in Scarlet Spider 11 for pure pleasure.
Deadpool vs. Carnage 3
Able to slice Deadpool's body into pieces (to be fair to Deadpool, he did put up some good fights when he had prep).
Deadpool vs. Carnage 4
1-2: Injures Deadpool who is wearing the Phage, Riot and Agony symbiotes which enhance his durability.
Axis Carnage 1
1-2: Displays his striking power against "villains", one-shotting both of them to varying levels of damage.
3: Carnage creates a tendril and causes Sin-Eater to shoot his face off.
Axis Carnage 2
1: Can "(break) every bone in a (man's) body" with one hit. This is hyperbole seeing as it was the man who gave this quote so his jaw must still be functional but is still impressive.
2: Carnage shows off his agility by performing a backflip over a speeding car.
Axis Carnage 3
1-2: Fully recovers from two direct, unexpected missile strikes within a page or so.
3-4: Tanks an attack from a supersized Sin-Eater who clobbers him with a tower.
5: Is able to continue talking while being shot at by multiple police officers.
