Clark Savage, Sr., was the father of legendary adventurer Doc Savage. He was an aloof and distant father, who allowed his son to be raised by teams of scientists in order to create a superhuman out of him. He was created by Henry Ralston and John Nanovic, and he played a posthumous supporting role in numerous pulp adventure novels beginning in March of 1933 written primarily by American author Lester Dent under the pseudonym Kenneth Robeson. Known for his Herculean physique, tanned skin, and mysterious violet eyes, he has been acknowledged by many as the precursor to the modern superhero. In 2013, for the 6th entry in The All-New Wild Adventures of Doc Savage, Skull Island, he searched for his own father, Stormalong Savage, alongside his son as they hunted for the fabled Skull Island.
History
Doc Savage: Skull Island
Clark Savage was a scientist with a cold and unwavering nature, who was practically a stranger to his son, whom he had brought up in the care of teams of scientists, and with a strict and grueling physical regimen to make him into a near superhuman being. Clark allowed his son despite his misgivings to enlist in the Great War while he was in his first year of medical school, but over the course of the war, he lost his vast fortune. Around this time, the ship belonging to his father Stormalong Savage was discovered adrift, and remembering his notion that the sea is full of treasure for those who go looking for it, he sent for his son and gathered a crew of Mayans, whom Clark believed were capable of keeping secrets, and they set sail for Sumatra.
