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.

The Terminator is a cybernetic organism consisting of living tissue over a robotic endoskeleton.  Developed as an assassin but able to be reprogrammed as a bodyguard, the Terminator appeared as a villain in the 1984 film and as a hero in the 1991 film Judgment Day and the 2003 film Rise of the Machines.

After downing Korak with a rock in "Korak Meets the Terminator", the android proceeds to subject the handsome, athletic, shirtless jungle hero to a painful bear hug.  Although he is a peak human teen-aged jungle boy, the son of Tarzan is no match for the Terminator.

Let's hope that there was a benign reason for the Terminator to be squeezing the senses from Korak.  Otherwise, the son of Tarzan will need someone to rescue him.

The two-picture series "Terminator vs. Korak by st00pz" was commissioned from an artist through DeviantART in 2015.  Finding myself attracted to more than 1 sketch, I commissioned another picture.

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