Korak in Bondage 2

 

Korak in Bondage 3 by bondageincomics

Tarzan is the English Lord John Clayton, Viscount Greystoke.  He is the hero of a series of novels, beginning in 1914, written by American writer Edgar Rice Burroughs, and a series of movies, beginning in 1918.  He is most memorably portrayed on film by former Olympic swimmer Johnny Weissmuller, beginning in 1932, and on television by Ron Ely, beginning in 1966.  However, my favorite depiction was in the Filmation animated television series beginning in 1976.

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.

As depicted in the comic books, pages, and strips, Korak has a lean, athletic physique, broad shoulders and thin waist, almost no clothing, a cute, boyish face, and full, thick hair.  He is also an intelligent, enthusiastic teen-aged boy with excellent natural instincts and a good heart.

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.

In this series, Korak is in trouble, serving as bait for his famous father.  Tarzan takes the bait.  

The sequel to the two-picture series "Korak in Bondage" was commissioned from bondageincomics through DeviantART in 2021.

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.
