Scott Hardy is an original character whom I share with the artist FranjoGutierrez at DeviantART.  Scott is an actor who played the role of Korak, son of Tarzan.  

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.

Batman is the vigilante crime-fighting alias of millionaire playboy Bruce Wayne.  Also known as the Caped Crusader, he starred in his own DC comic book series since 1939, a popular 1966 television series on ABC, and various blockbuster films, starting in 1989.  He was a founding member of the Justice League.

Neither Batman nor Korak have superpowers.  Nevertheless, Batman is clearly a superhero while Korak is only an ordinary hero.  Here, Batman proves to Korak why that is.

The multi-picture series "Korak and Batman" was commissioned from FranjoGutierrez through DeviantART in 2023.  Nine pictures are available here.

These pictures are fan art and intended to raise interest in and appreciation of the Edgar Rice Burroughs character Korak.  These are original scenes and did not appear in any comic book, page, or strip.
