Razorbacks, also referred to as an Old World swine, Eurasian wild boar, or Russian wild boar, are feral pigs that were brought to North America by the explorer Hernando de Soto during the mid-1550s. The animal evolved due to a system of farming known as free roam or free range farming, where domesticated animals were allowed to roam freely and are identified by a brand, or burned marking, on their hides. Though pigs were successfully farmed this way, many were lost.

Razorback is an Australian film released in 1984, involving a giant boar terrorizing the Australian outback, killing and devouring people. The film was directed by Russel Mulcahy, who would later make the first two Highlander films. The movie is based on Peter Brennan´s novel.

Buford Hollis, a musclebound trucker from Texarkana, Arkansas known as Razorback, was first introduced in the pages of Spectacular Spider-Man in 1977. He was looking for his younger sister who had joined a religious cult which was in fact led by the villainous Man-Beast (disguised as the Hate-Monger). It took the combined efforts of Razorback and Spider-Man to defeat him.
