Korak: I understand that you are a journalist and that you have relatives who work at Greystoke Ranch.
Panther: Perhaps you should be the journalist Korak. Did you know that my cousin has the cutest little schoolgirl crush on you?

Panther: I will spare you if you swear that you will never reveal my secret identity. Please do. I would truly regret wasting such a handsome young hero.
Korak: I swear!

Panther: Your youthful innocence is charming, but it will probably lead you into trouble in the future. I see that I will need to keep a close eye on you, my hero boy.

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.
Korak strives to emulate the heroics of his legendary father but lacks his strength, maturity and experience. Therefore, he is more likely to enter into dangerous situations and more vulnerable to being defeated.
Panther is a mysterious ninja who appears in "Korak and the Panther (jen-and-kris)" and "Panther at Greystoke Ranch".
This 6-picture series "Korak in the Panther's Den by jen-and-kris" was commissioned from an artist through DeviantART in 2016. In this series, Korak follows Panther's scent to her apartment. However, the handsome, athletic son of Tarzan appears to have underestimated his quarry.
The alt picture was initially omitted from the series because I wanted to portray Panther in the morning on her way to work. However, the picture looked so good that I included it in this blog as an addendum.
These pictures are fan art and intended to raise interest in and appreciation of the Edgar Rice Burroughs character Korak. Panther is a potential ally, competitor, and love interest. These are original scenes and did not appear in any comic book, page, or strip.
