The Bloody Claws attacked two police officers, Kyle Brock and his partner Eddie, when they showed up on their turf after responding to a phony "squealer." The Bloody Claws opened fire on them and wounded Eddie badly, and managed to chase Brock to the roof. However, Brock was the super-hero Earth-Lord, and assumed his costumed identity to battle them. Earth-Lord easily defeated the entire gang, and saw to it that his partner survived.
