Zot
Zachary T. Paleozogt, or Zot as he is popularly known, is a fictional character and the main and titular protagonist of the Zot! comic book series created by Scott McCloud and published by Eclipse Comics. He is a blond haired, blue eyed teenage hero from an alternate Earth who flies via rocket boots and fights villains with a ten-shooter laser gun and boundless optimism.
Zach Paleozogt is a native of an alternate Earth where history ran very much like the pulp science-fiction of the 30s and 40s. In his world, it’s the mid-1960s, and high- tech peace and prosperity reign. Earth is part of an inter- stellar alliance of worlds, and war, crime, poverty and other social ills have been marginalized.
Orphaned at a young age, Zach was raised by his Uncle Max, an acclaimed and eccentric inventor, and Peabody, a dour robotic manservant. Zach was a bright kid who did well in school and absorbed his uncle’s bright outlook on life. But what he truly excelled in was the physical: sports, gymnastics, and his world’s popular interactive arcade games. These skills came in handy one day, when he used them to save a park full of people from a crashing aircar.
Basking in the media attention this incident brought him, Zach convinced Max to outfit him with various gadgets and a costume, and took to the skies as the superheroic Zot! As the years went by, Zot gained a great deal of fame and public trust by helping people in trouble, and defeating a bewildering array of bizarre criminals, including the mad cyborg ’artist‘ Dekko, the electric assassin 9-Jack-9, and the alien crime boss called The Blotch.
Recently, Zot became involved in a civil war on his parents’ homeworld of Sirius IV. In the course of things, he was forced to travel through a dimensional gateway invented by Max, and ended up on our own quiet, mundane Earth. Here he met an ordinary girl named Jenny Weaver, who got swept up into his world and adventures. The two have been close friends and inseparable companions since then, regularly shuttling between their two dimensions.
