Dorno in a Cage

Dorno and his mother Tara are members of the Herculoids, 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.

Due to his youth, her femininity, and their lack of special powers, Dorno and Tara are certainly the most vulnerable members of the Herculoids and are frequently weak links which their opponents seek to target.  They are often in trouble and in need of rescue.

Although Dorno is the son of Zandor, he has little in common with his father, aside from their pageboy haircuts and their blue, shirtless outfits.  He lacks his father's red hair, stern countenance, and powerful, muscular build.

Dorno tends to resemble his mother Tara.  Like her, the boy has blond hair, a pretty face, and a slender, athletic build.

This four-picture series "Dorno in a Cage by roemesquita" was one that I commissioned from an artist through DeviantART in 2017.

Zandorna is a cousin of Dorno from Zandor's side of the family.  Zandorna shares Zandor's red hair and powerful, muscular build.  She still has a crush on the shirtless pretty boy Dorno.  However, Zandorna doubts that a son of Tara would be able to continue the strong leadership which his father has provided.

Zandorna's family considers Tara to be a spoiled princess and her son Dorno to be his  mother's boy.  Unfortunately, the helplessness of the cute, blond, athletic son of Zandor in the cage and his mother's pathetic rescue attempt do not help dispel that impression.


These pictures are fan art and primarily intended to raise interest in the Herculoids and Dorno.  Zandorna is a potential antagonist and love interest.  These are original scenes and did not appear in any movies, television series or any other derivative media.
