Description: Klaw appears to be a red humanoid with no nose and a sound
amplifier for a right hand. He has red eyes. He has no hair and is 5'11''
tall.


History: Physicist Ulysses Klaw developed a sound
transducer that converted sound waves into physical mass, but he needed
the rare metal vibranium to power it. Leading a mercenary team to the
vibranium-rich jungle nation of Wakanda to loot the precious metal, Klaw
killed the Wakandan ruler T'Chaka but was driven off when his victim's
young son, T'Challa, used Klaw's own sound blaster to blow off the
scientist's right hand and rout his troops. The wounded Klaw fled, vowing
vengeance, and returned years later wearing a new sonic blaster prosthetic
in place of his lost hand. Defeated again by T'Challa and the superhuman
Fantastic Four, Klaw jumped into his activated sound converter in a
desperate attempt to become superhumanly powerful. His gamble worked, and
he emerged as a being of sentient sound. Since then, he has dedicated his
powers to the pursuit of illicit wealth and revenge against his enemies.

Klaw was among the villains transported to Battleworld by the Beyonder and
later was a member of the Frightful Four under the Wizard who attacked the
Fantastic Four. He was captured and taken to the Vault. He was among the
prisoners who tried to break out of the Vault but were stopped by Freedom
Force and the Avengers (The Vault Graphic Novel).

He did eventually escape the vault along with a number of other criminals
(Avengers Spotlight #26).

Klaw provided the music at the wedding of the Absorbing Man and Titania II.
He was recruited by the Crimson Cowl III to become a member of the Masters
of Evil VI (Thunderbolts #3), and has faced the Thunderbolts a number of
times. He has an ongoing grudge against Songbird for using his sound
technology in her equipment.

Powers: Klaw is a being composed of pure sound, with a
right hand that has been replaced by a sound amplifier. He is able to
generate sound as well as create solid sound constructs of great detail.
These constructs are opaque red and usually take the shape of large
animals that do his bidding. Although Klaw cannot be killed by a perfect
vacuum, his sound body goes dormant without a medium that conducts sound
for it to exist in. He does not need to eat or breath, and no longer ages.
