History: (Fleer-Ultra Spider-Man, card#145) - Created from the spliced DNA of the Rhino and the Puma by the Jackal, Claw-Hide is a deadly threat to Spider-Man.

Comments: Created by Jean-Pierre Targete.

To the best of my knowledge, these guys never appeared anywhere else, and were created solely for the 1995 Fleer Ultra Spider-Man trading cards.  However, given that the Jackal surely had all sorts of crazy schemes on the go, there's nothing to say these guys can't exist on Earth-616.

This subset of the card series was titled "Arachnophobias".  Bizarrely, a couple years later, Toy Biz released a line of hybrid Spider-villain action figures under the name "Arachniphobia" [sic].  Freaky.

Big thanks to Mark Pellegrini for bringing these to my attention and providing scans.
