INVADER ZIM:
SYNOPSIS
The Irken armada is poisede to conquer the universe, but it would be a lot easier without Invader Zim! Thick-headed, brash, and overzealous, Zim has been banished into food service for wrecking the Irken home planet. He begs the Almighty Tallest for a second chance to reclaim his lost honor. Zim is sent on a "secret" mission to a planet far away on the edge of the universe-Earth. Now Earth's only hope rests with a young UFO-hunting paranormal enthusiast named Dib. Seeing through Zim's human disguise, Dib makes it his sole mission to defend our planet from this fiendish alien menace.


INVADER ZIM: SYNOPSIS#2
After botching the first invasion, invader Zim is eager to redeem himself to the leaders of his home planet Irk. They assign Zim an obscure, unimportant planet called "Earth" along with his sidekick Gir. Together they infiltrate human society disguised as a schoolboy and pet dog. Strangely, no one at "Skool" seems to notice him except for classmate Dib, who's an obsessed paranormal investigator. Dib tries to warn the world, but no one believes him except his sister Gaz, who doesn't care. Clueless but relentless, Zim roams Earth looking for weaknesses in our defenses and the big break that will win him praise and recognition from his leaders.
 
 

INVADER ZIM CHARACTERS

Zim


An alien from planet Irk, Zim's sole focus is gaining respect from his leaders - and he goes in disguise as a student on planet Earth. His dogged tenacity and misguided paranoia, coupled with a naive vulnerability, make him a target for ridicule by his classmates and the bane of Dib's existence. Zim is often prone to passionate outbursts proclaiming his alien superiority, and he is extremely determined to vanquish the Earth and reclaim his honor.

Gir


He is Zim's standard-issue intelligence-gathering and information-retrieval robot. Instead of a top-of-the-line model, Gir was cobbled together from spare parts but is nevertheless exceptionally loyal. He has a short attention span, is extremely energetic, and often behaves in a bizarre and uncontrollable manner. Often seen wearing his little zippered dog suit.

Dib


One of Zim's classmates at "Skool," Dib is a relentless pursuer of the paranormal and "gifted child." His two main goals in life are impressing his famous TV scientist father and exposing his arch-rival Zim as the alien he knows him to be.

Gaz


Dib's pessimistic kid sister and pint-sized mistress of manipulation. Happiest when pitting Dib and Zim against one another, she often falls into the role of hapless guinea pig to her brother's bizarre scientific tinkerings.
