    Claude was contacted by lee Switzler into helping him and his griend Howard the Duck. Claude, honering this request, invented Howard the Duck's "Iron Duck" armor. It bore a striking resemblance to Tony "Iron Man" Stark. While the Iron Duck armor of his own invention was effective enough to get the job done, it almost killed its wearer, Howard. Claude later worked as a mechanic for Lee Switzler's "To Hack and Back" Cab company.
