History[]
Early Life[]
Zak Saturday is the son of the Secret Scientists Drew and Solomon "Doc" Saturday. Before he was born, he was cursed with the spirit of the ancient Cryptid named Kur, as his parents were excavating the Kur Stone relic. With the powers of Kur, Zak is able to telepathically control Cryptids. His family travel around the world in an airship, investigating sightings of Cryptids as part of the Secret Scientists organization. The Saturday family came into conflict with a Cryptid named V.V. Argost, who wanted to use the power of Kur to rule the world. Zak also traveled to a parallel universe, where he met an alternate version of himself named Zak Monday. V.V. Argost attempted to combine the power of the two Zaks, which ended up destroying him in the process. For a time after that, Zak was a normal kid, before his powers eventually returned. A few years later, Zak teamed up with the hero Ben Tennyson, (and his partner Rook Blonko), when the mad scientist named Dr. Animo brought Argost back to the living world. The Saturdays worked together to capture Argost and Animo, and they kept in contact with each other afterwords.
5 Years Later[]

- A future version of Zak cameod in Chapter 9: Time Out, as part of the future force that Future Fenton mentions.
