Lee Leugenaar (to himself): Soon.

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.
Lee Leugenaar was introduced in "Korak and the Leugenaars". He is a wealthy businessman and a neighbor of Greystoke Ranch in Africa. Leugenaar is also insanely jealous and suspects Korak of having an affair with his wife Annie. He is eagerly anticipating the prospect of hunting and killing the handsome, athletic son of Tarzan.
This 40-picture series "Korak and the Hunt" was commissioned from four artists through DeviantART in 2017 and 2018. Four 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.
