HistoryIn 1989, while settling his parent's meager estate, Zachary discovered his father's special crime-fighting equipment and secret journals, and thus learned of his secret alter ego as Jack-in-the-Box. He was torn by the revelation, unable to help feeling that his father, by risking his life as a superhero, had chosen helping strangers over being there for his family. Despite this ambivalence, Zach adopted the Jack-in-the-Box identity, and used it as a revenge tactic to bring down the Underlord, the Weirdies' employer. By 1995, Zach was the owner and CEO of his own toy company, the small-but-growing Z.J. Toys, and married to Tamra Dixon, a news anchor. He was a successful superhero in his own right. He had befriended the Trouble Boys, who would sometimes help him in his adventures. One night, unbeknownst to Zach, a small-time criminal, "Eyes" Eisenstein; secretly witnessed him changing into his civilian clothing, thus reveling his secret identity. Eyes considered profiting from this knowledge but over time became too paranoid to tell anyone. ("A Little Knowledge") In 1997, Zach encountered three time travelers from the future, each a possible future version of his own son, as yet unborn in the present. They revealed that his death was in the near future. Two versions,(Box and The Jackson, were twisted, monstrous mirror images of Jack-in-the-Box. The third was a sane and seemingly normal individual. All three were young men who had been deeply scarred and haunted by the absence of their father throughout their childhood. Not wanting to leave his future child fatherless, as his own father inadvertently did to him, Zach passed on the Jack-in-the-Box identity to Roscoe James. Equipment
