Disclose Notes: Colors credit confirmed by Anthony Tollin.

Logo design credits confirmed by Todd Klein via his Facebook posting Comics Logos C #67: CLAW THE UNCONQUERED on 1 September 2021. According to Klein, per J David Spurlock, the comic book was originally going to be titled, Talon. As this conflicted with a project Jim Steranko had planned using the same title, he agreed to create a rough design for the logo provided DC agreed to change the name of this comic to Claw. Saladino finished the design, including adding claw shapes to the letters C and L in the logo.
