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.

Phantom is the alter ego of Kit Walker, the last in a dynasty of costumed crimefighters in the fictional African country of Bangalla.  Starring in a long-running comic strip, he has starred in a 1943 movie serial, a 1990s animated television series, a 1996 film, and a brief 2009 television series.

Like Korak, the Phantom has no superpowers and is based in Africa.

The series "Korak and the Phantom by st00pz" was commissioned from an artist through DeviantART in 2022.  Three 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.
