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.

Due to his youth and his lack of special powers, Dorno is certainly one of the most vulnerable members of the Herculoids and is frequently a weak link which their opponents seek to target.  He is 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.  When the time comes, Dorno may be unable to succeed in continuing the strong leadership that his father has provided.

The 7-part picture series "Dorno and Butch by roemesquita" was one that I commissioned from an artist through DeviantART in 2018.  Four are available here.
  
Butch is part of a plot to remove Dorno from the line of succession.  However, after quickly defeating Dorno with the help of a cheap shot, Butch decides to forego a quick end to his assignment.  Instead he is planning a slow, painful dismantling of the cute, blond, athletic son of Zandor, using his bare hands to force the shirtless pretty boy to beg for mercy again and again.

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