VENTURE BROS CHARACTERS SERIES
He is an avid reader of the Giant Boy Detective series of books. He is named after fantasy artist Roger Dean, who made the cover art for Rusty and Dean's progressive rock album collection. Dean has been killed over a dozen times, but each time he is replaced with an exact clone who has no memory of the death. Dean is considered the "Smart" son by Rusty. While more timid than Hank, he shows signs of being slightly less emotionally stunted than his brother, as he has a crush on Triana Orpheus. He is a combination of Frank Hardy, Peter Parker (in fact, he wears Spider-Man pajamas in several episodes) and stereotypes of boys from the 1950s (e.g. Dean is timid, selfless, and more "bookish" than Hank.


After briefly joining the former Henchman 21's version of S.P.H.I.N.X. Like his brother, Hank has been killed over a dozen times, but replaced with an exact clone who is supposed to have no memory of his own deaths though he vaguely recollects jumping off the roof of his house in a Batman costume. In season 4, he became more rebellious when Brock had left, even going so far as to lose his virginity (nearly all knowledge of this event has been erased from his memory, however). He is shown as the more outgoing and daring of the pair, and more attracted to adventure. He tends to be more athletic and better at disguises than his brother. Hank's character is based on Joe Hardy of the Hardy Boys, Jonny Quest, and Fred Jones of Scooby-Doo.
