: He possesses a notable tic of licking the blades of his claws.

* [[w:c:snk:Jack|Jack]] of World Heroes closely resembles Club. Similar to Club, Jack has the habit of licking the blades of his claws.

* He seems to be the inspiration for a common enemy named "[~~https~~://godhandcapcom~~.fandom.com/wiki/Nail_Mohawk~~ Nail Mohawk]" from the PS2 ~~game~~, God Hand, given that these ~~enemies bear an all around~~ similar appearance to him, ~~wield claws~~, and also have a taunt where they lick their claws.

* He seems to be the inspiration for a common enemy named "[[W:c:godhandcapcom:Nail Mohawk|Nail Mohawk]]" from the CAPCOM title for the PS2, God Hand, given that these enemies possess a similar physical appearance to him, having a lean yet muscular build, hair styled into a mohawk, and wielding a pair of claws. They also notably have a taunt where they lick their claws, just like Club does.
