Dorno Rescues Jonny Quest

Dorno Rescues Jonny Quest 2 by Bowen12a 




Dorno is the son of Zandor, leader of the Herculoids, and his wife Tara, a family of three humans and their five very powerful pet creatures defending their jungle planet.  The Herculoids were the subjects of an American animated television series, which debuted in 1967 and was revived in 1981 on CBS and produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions.

Jonathan "Jonny" Quest is the 11-year-old son of Dr. Benton Quest.  His adventures were depicted in an American animated television series, which debuted in 1964 on ABC and was revived in 1986 on syndication and in 1996 on the Cartoon Network.  They were also produced by Hanna-Barbera.

Being a child star can also be an adventure.  They may get fame and fortune, but they also face adult temptations and responsibilities without necessarily being ready for them.  I imagine what Dorno's adventures would be as a child star.

The 2-part picture series "Dorno Rescues Jonny Quest by Bowen12a" was one that I commissioned from an artist through DeviantART in 2015.  


Although Dorno is still resentful of the humiliation he took from Jonny Quest and Hadji in "Clash of the Former Cartoon Child Stars", he sympathizes with the plight of another child star, who is victimized by the same bullies who tied him to a pole in "We're Not in Amzot Anymore".  Jonny shows a new appreciation of the shirtless pretty boy after the rescue. 

These pictures are fan art and primarily intended to raise interest in the Herculoids and Dorno.  I reintroduced Jonny Quest as a potential ally.  These are original scenes and did not appear in either series or in any other derivative media.
