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.

Robin is the eager, youthful sidekick of Batman, the vigilante crime-fighting alias of millionaire playboy Bruce Wayne.  Introduced in 1940 as orphaned acrobat Dick Grayson in the DC comic book series Batman, Robin was played by Burt Ward in the 1966 television series on ABC.


Batgirl is best known as the crime-fighting alias of Barbara Gordon, a librarian and daughter of Police Commissioner Gordon.  After initially appearing as Betty Kane from 1961 to 1964 in the DC comic book series, she was reintroduced in 1967 in both the comic book series and the 1966 television series, with Yvonne Craig as Ms. Gordon.

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.

In "Korak Faces the Bats", Batman defeated Korak and took the son of Tarzan to the Bat Cave for the weekend for some long, painful lessons on the need to come prepared for a fight .  In "Korak Faces the Bats 2", Batgirl agreed to serve as the jungle boy's teacher with respect to the potential consequences of defeat for a young hero.  In "Korak Faces the Bats 3", Robin agreed to watch and feed Korak in between his lessons, but he finds that he has developed an attraction to the handsome, athletic son of Tarzan

The four-picture series "Korak and the Bats 4 by st00pz" was commissioned from an artist through DeviantART in 2019.  In this blog, Batgirl discovers that Robin has been seduced by the jungle boy.  In her attempt to subdue the son of Tarzan, she finds herself subdued by the Boy Wonder.

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