About the series
In 1953, Toby Press unleashed a brief but memorable three-issue run of The Purple Claw, a crime-fighting saga centered on Dr. Jonathan Weir and his mysterious alter ego. Artist Ben Brown brought the series to life with his distinctive visuals, defining the look of this short-lived pulp-inspired hero. Though its original run was cut short, the title has endured as a cult curiosity, representing Toby's foray into the masked vigilante genre during the early days of the Comics Code era.
