Neo Dio

Template:CharacterInfoboxNeo Dio is a character in the World Heroes series. His name means "New God", and is spelled in a similar way as Neo Geo.

His visual design is based on Ikuro Hashizawa the protagonist of the manga Baoh: The Visitor, while his lines in his first appearance (in World Heroes Perfect) were references to the villain Dio Brando from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (in Neo Geo Battle Coliseum, they are more like Santana's). Both works were created by the mangaka Hirohiko Araki.

After his defeat in the second game he uses Damned's technology to improve himself, returning later to exact revenge for his defeat. He kills Zeus during his confrontation with the World Heroes and challenges them to a fight, once again ends defeated.
