About
Dio Brando, also known as DIO, is one of the main antagonists of the Japanese manga series JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. He is most notably known for his arrogant, ambitions, over the top personality, and gratuitously cruel behaviour.
Origin
Dio Brando first appeared in chapter 1 of the manga, during the events of Part 1: Phantom Blood. In the chapter, he gets adopted by the Joestar family, after the death of his biological father. Dio spends the following chapters tormenting his adoptive brother Jonathan, by getting him alienated by his father and friends, stealing a kiss from his girlfriend, get getting his dog burned alive.
From chapter 11 onwards, Dio becomes a vampire with the help of an ancient stone mask. His reign of terror however gets ultimately stopped by Jonathan and his allies.
Dio returns later in the manga, during Part 3: Stardust Crusaders, this time gaining a Stand, a spiritual manifestation, with the power to stop time.
