    The Klaw





    • Head and hand from BlacKrytonite
    • CTVT bodysuit (altered to fit better/painted with fabric paint)
    • CTVT body (restrung to pose better)
    • Fist hand from Customslab



    Ulysses Klaw is a Dutch physicist (born in Vlaardingen, Netherlands) working in the field of applied sonics at the Technical University at Delft, he designs a sound transducer able to convert sound waves into physical mass. The theoretical element necessary to make his device work is vibranium, a substance known to exist only in certain meteoric deposits in the small African nation of Wakanda. Desperate for a sample, Klaw organizes a team of mercenaries to help him seize the element from the African tribe who guarded it, the Wakandas. When T'Chaka, the leader of the Wakandan cult of the Black Panther, refuses to yield any of the metal from the sacred mound, Klaw orders his men to kill him. Witnessing his father's death, T'Chaka's adolescent son T'Challa seizes Klaw's sonic blaster weapon and aimed it at the marauders, shattering Klaw's right hand with one burst and scattering his troops with a second.

    Driven away, Klaw vows to return and wreak vengeance. When he reaches civilization, Klaw has his mangled hand amputated and fitted with a claw-like prosthetic device into which he built a sonic-force blaster. Ten years later, he mounts a second attack on the Wakandas and is opposed by the Fantastic Four and T'Challa, now the Black Panther, who has succeeded his father as ruler. Thwarted again, Klaw leaps into his massive sonic converter device (the vibranium for which he had acquired criminally on the open market), hoping to gain superhuman powers to combat his foes. His gamble was successful and Klaw was transformed into a creature whose body was composed of "living sound." In his new form, Klaw battles the Fantastic Four and is pummeled into unconsciousness by Mister Fantastic wearing vibranium knuckle guards and taken to prison.

    In the Southeast Pacific, lies the sunken city of R'Leyh. There lies C'thulhu waits to return to our world with the other Great Old Ones. A hideous creature of enormous size and alien power, it waits for it's time to return patiently. For it has all the time in the world while it waits for the stars.

            Man, that head and sonic hand are wicked cool. Nice job on the suit too, at first I thought it was a printed Reproheads suit.
