---

• The Ace: As Weapon H, Clay has the powers of both Hulk and Wolverine in addition to having extensive military training, potentially making him more powerful and deadly than either of them.
• Alien Blood: Clay's blood turns green whenever he uses his powers even without transforming.
• All Your Powers Combined: The explicit goal of the Weapon H program. Clay has the combined powers of Wolverine, the Hulk, Warpath, and Domino, with some Nanomachines from Lady Deathstrike making it possible for his bones to be coated in Adamantium and still grow with him. This trope is downplayed, he's only manifested Wolverine and the Hulk (Amadeus Cho version) powers plus a bit of Lady Deathstrike's bionic weirdness. He hasn't shown that he can fly like Warpath nor does he manipulate luck like Domino and even his creator is wondering if he has those abilities.
• Composite Character: Weapon H is one of Hulk and Wolverine. Aside from the obvious, his back story and personal issues are a combination of Hulk and Wolverine’s. Like Hulk he had an abusive father, he has to deal with his own view of himself, and desires to be left alone. Like Wolverine he has a dark history with military ,feels like he doesn’t deserve to be called a hero, and doesn’t want to be used as a weapon.
• Early-Bird Cameo: A grey skinned Hulk with a buzzcut and Wolverine Claws showed up in the Civil War tie-in of 2015's Secret Wars, though there it was referred to by Captain America as Logan.
• Heroic Neutral: Clay just wants to be left alone, but at the same time is compelled by his conscience to help people.
• Red Eyes, Take Warning: Weapon H has blank, red eyes.
• Rags to Riches: Clay is an ex-marine turned mercenary while Sonia is just a Roxxon secretary. Even though Clay, prior to being Weapon H, has been able to get lucrative contracts with an elite black ops PMC - money is still tight which is one of the beefs Sonia's mother has with him. This all changes when Clay takes the Weird World rescue mission from Roxxon, one condition of his is that he and Sonia gets $10 million dollars each. Clay succeeds and they're now multimillionaires.
• Wolverine Wannabe: Weapon-H has the abilities of not only various characters associated with Weapon X — most prominently Wolverine — but also gamma-radiated characters like the Hulk, thus making him an example of a HULK MASH!-Up as well.
