Who is Claw?

Born in the pages of DC's legendary Cancelled Comic Cavalcade #1 in 1978 — that wonderfully strange Bronze Age artifact of comics history — Claw emerged from the creative pairing of Gerry Conway and Dick Ayers, two names with serious pedigree in the industry. Published through K. G. Murray, this character's footprint spans a compact but collector-worthy run, with two of their six catalogued appearances earning key-issue recognition, which is a remarkable ratio that serious collectors will want to note. The company Claw keeps is genuinely striking — sharing pages with mythic and sword-and-sorcery heavyweights like Hercules, Beowulf, and Valcan across Savage Tales and its companion volumes. It's a small but punchy Bronze Age presence that rewards the dedicated hunter.
