"I love you, you love me..." Dino was one of the bizarre characters made famous in
Jim Fernandez and
Ben Maniclang's long-running
Aliwan Komiks serial,
Anak ni Zuma (1976-1984). The dinosaur-headed son of the Aztec demigod
Zuma has also been portrayed on film, appearing in
the 1987 sequel based on the serial.
During the mid-1990's,
Grahic Arts Service, Inc. published
Zuma And Other Amazing Stories (or
Zuma Komiks, for short). The anthology featured the further adventures of the sinister snake-man (
Zuma The Series), while another strip,
Mga Anak ni Zuma ("The Children of Zuma") was devoted to his offspring
Galema and, of course, Dino.
In this short tale from
Zuma Komiks #112 (December 29, 1995), we find that Dino has been playing Lizard King of the Jungle, living in peace and harmony with his animal friends. But then, an injured and blinded young woman enters his life...
Is his name pronounced as Dye-No or Dee-No?
