Giant Crab
Height: Not Available
Length: Not Available
Mass: Not Available
Crawling Speed: Moderate
Powers:
- Pincer Claws: Like its smaller brethren, the Giant Crab is armed with two snapping pincer claws that it can use to crush and ensnare its prey.
Weaknesses: None
First Appearance: Island Claws (1980)
Human Kills: Not Available
Fight Record: None
Home World: Earth
Origin: United States (Florida)
Type: Mutant
History: When a nuclear power plant in Florida accidentally leaked a small amount of radiation into the surrounding area, it generated a nightmare of unequaled proportions. Directly affected by the radiation, the local population of crabs became highly aggressive toward man. One such member of the species, however, became freakishly huge. It stalked the nights, attacking anybody that it came across and leaving a trail of carnage in its wake. Homes and vehicles weren’t spared, but with its victims either left dead or in a total state of shock, nobody could uncover the truth until it was too late.
When a large piece of its shed shell was discovered in the brush, the true culprit was revealed. However, it had become far too large and dangerous to be brought down via normal means. It soon went on a complete rampage, leaving burning wreckage behind it as it approached town. Those there fought back, but gunfire and even small explosives failed to penetrate its orange exoskeleton. Threatening the safety of everyone, the crab tore through everything before one man, armed with nothing but a splintered piece of wood, climbed on top of its body. Stabbing the broken edge into its eyestalk, the brave soul managed to kill after repeated strikes.
