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.

Black Panther's real name is T'Challa, king and protector of the fictional African nation of Kakanda.  Along with possessing enhanced abilities achieved through ancient Wakandan rituals of drinking the essence of the heart-shaped herb, T'Challa also relies on his proficiency in science, rigorous physical training, hand-to-hand combat skills, and access to wealth and advanced Wakandan technology to combat his enemies.  He is the hero of various Marvel comic book series, starting in 1973, a 2010 animated television series, and a blockbuster 2018 film, and a major character in various films, television series, and comic-book series.

Korak strives to emulate his legendary father but lacks his strength, maturity and experience.  Therefore, he is both more likely to enter into dangerous situations and more vulnerable to being defeated.

The Honorable Jack Clayton now finds himself a prisoner in Wakanda.  However, the Black Panther offers the son of Tarzan a sporting chance.  Korak can win his freedom by defeating T'Challa in a wrestling match. 

T'Challa forces Korak to submit repeatedly.  While his respect for the son of Tarzan's fighting ability is rapidly diminishing, the Black Panther's respect for the youthful hero's beautiful body is quickly growing.

This multi-part series "Korak vs. T'Challa" was commissioned from the artist TheRaytrix through DeviantART in 2020 and 2021.  Five pictures and an alternate 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.
