The character of Tarzan was never Disney's property. He is a public domain character just like Alice, Peter Pan, Hercules and a ton of others. While those characters do have original creators, they don't have owners and anybody can make stories with them and they won't get sewed.

Characters like Buzz Lightyear, Darth Vader and Iron Man are owned by Disney but not created by Disney.

Characters like Elsa, Ariel and Tiana are created owned and trademarked by Disney, but are also loosely based on older fictional characters that are not owned by anybody (public domain).

Characters like Wall-E and Bolt are created by Disney (the corporation), but not Walt Disney himself.

Characters like Mickey and Donald and Goofy were actually created by Walt Disney.
