Arriving on the unsuspecting planet, he tries to blend in by disguising himself and his malfunctioning robot sidekick GIR as a human boy and his dog. Zim is constantly hounded by his nemesis Dib, who recognizes his alien nature, and Dib's younger sister Gaz.In 2001 animation fans were introduced to Zim, his oft-foiled plots to enslave the Earth and Jhonen Vasquez's dark, funny universe on Nickelodeon.

Fans have been waiting for the return of Zim and GIR; now they'll get it in the first all-Zim comic book, part of Nickelodeon's commitment to bring its beloved classic characters to new audiences.
