Hot matchup. The episodes of the Batman Animated Series dedicated to Clayface really made that character for me.
That show had such a way of taking minimal villains and making them top tier. Mr. Freeze, for one.

I always loved Sandman, and he gets tons of points for being one of Spidey's original foes from the old school era. He also gets style points for that sharp sweater.

Clayface is a bit more intimidating, I think. There's something about being beaten to death by clay that seems scarier than sand.

As for them actually having a fight, I think it's enough of an even match to render that aspect irrelevant to me. Pretty much perfectly matched.

I really think I'm more into Clayface. It's definitely because of those animated series episodes. I guess maybe that shouldn't count in the comic book clash, but I can't really seperate it from the character.
