Dr. Zin was a power-hungry scientist who was the sworn arch-enemy of Dr. Benton Quest, and, by extension, his son, Jonny. Descended from the Mongol Khans, Zin believed he was destined to create a "Zin Dynasty" and would stop at nothing less than world domination. Although a brilliant scientist in his own right, Zin often attempted to steal his rival Dr. Quest's inventions and ideas for his own use. He had two daughters, Anaya and Melana, who became known as the "Zin Twins." Dr. Zin is the main antagonist of the original Jonny Quest animated series.
He appeared again in The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest in the episode, Nemesis, then again as he was presumed dead during The Night of the Zinja (as well as making a robot of himself), and finally assassinated in The Robot Spies. In Cairo, Egypt, he trapped himself and Dr. Quest in a tomb and buried themselves alive, till one of his spider robots was programmed by Quest and burned his way out. He was able to devastate the Quest Compound, though.
