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.

Wonder Woman is Princess Diana of Themyscira, daughter of Amazon Queen Hippolyta.  She is the hero of her own DC comic books series, debuting in 1941, a 1975 television series, and various blockbuster films.  She was a founding member of the Justice League.

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.

The two-pictures "Wonder Woman and Korak 2 by st00pz" and "Wonder Woman and Korak 3 by st00pz" were commissioned from an artist through DeviantART in 2017.  In "Wonder Woman and Korak by st00pz", Wonder Woman kept the handsome, athletic son of Tarzan on a short leash.  In this series, she continues to play with her boy toy.  Finding myself attracted to more than 1 sketch again, I commissioned another picture.

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