There are a couple of subtle issues here.
First of all, do not bind org-agenda-clockreport-mode or org-agenda-show-log in this way, these are internal variables and meant for a mode that is toggled interactively. Use org-agenda-start-with-clockreport-mode and org-agenda-start-with-log-mode instead. These are the values chosen when a new agenda buffer is created, and at that time its value is copied into internal variables.
Second, because this happens when the agenda buffer is created, these need to be in the global list of variables, not the local ones for the agenda list, when you use a list of commands. So the example below will work in both cases:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
(append
org-agenda-custom-commands '(
("H" "Good: Clock Review"
((agenda ""))
((org-agenda-start-with-log-mode 'clockcheck)
(org-agenda-start-with-clockreport-mode t)))
("C" "Bad: Clock Review"
agenda ""
((org-agenda-start-with-log-mode 'clockcheck)
(org-agenda-start-with-clockreport-mode t))))))
Hope this helps.
