Thor and Korak

Thor and Korak by jen-and-kris

Korak is the Honorable Jack Clayton, son of English Lord John Clayton, Viscount Greystoke, also known as Tarzan, lord of the jungle.  He is the hero of a 1915/6 magazine serial and 1917 novel by American writer Edgar Rice Burroughs and a 1920 silent movie serial, as well as a character in several other Tarzan stories from 1914 to 1924.  He experienced a revival in 1964 as the star of his own comic book series and as a major character in various Tarzan comic books, pages, and strips from 1966 to 1978.

Thor is the Norse god of thunder and son of Odin.  He is the hero of his own Marvel comic books series, debuting in 1962, and various films.  He was a founding member of the Avengers.

The picture "Thor and Korak by jen-and-kris" was commissioned from an artist through DeviantART in 2016.  Korak noticed that Thor left his hammer behind and sought to return it to him.  It appears that the handsome, athletic son of Tarzan is worthy.

This picture is fan art and intended to raise interest in and appreciation of the Edgar Rice Burroughs character Korak.  I introduced Thor as a potential friend and rival.  This is an original scene and did not appear in any comic book, page, or strip.
