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 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 January, I received a gift from the wonderful 09tuf, featuring Korak, son of Tarzan, lord of the jungle.  In it, Korak was at the mercy of a champion of a hostile tribe.

I was so impressed that I commissioned a series of back scenes.

This multi-part series "Korak and the Warrior Prequel" was commissioned from 09tuf through DeviantART in 2021.  One picture and four scenes in two pages 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.
