- Description
- In 1975 DC Comics introduced “Claw,” a barbarian with a cursed hand who travelled the fantastical land of “Pytharia.” Created by writer Dave Michelin and artist Ernie Chan, Claw takes obvious inspiration from Marvel Comic’s popular depiction of pulp author Robert E. Howard’s “Conan the Barbarian,” which first hit comic stands in 1970.
- “Claw the Unconquered” ended after twelve issues.
