Regarding Das
For those of you who have decided to read the IZ fan fiction comic series by the author Johnnyfan07 or M. Kunitz on , and still do not quite understand the character Das, this should put things in perspective for you.
Das is a fan made character for the show Invader Zim, created by the fan fiction writer known as Johnnyfan07, on DeviantART or M. Kuntiz. Das never appeared in the actual Invader Zim television series and was never meant to.
Das is introduced as a new child in Zim and Dib's class. He is able to see through Zim's human disguise, just like Dib. However, instead of trying to stop Zim, like Dib, Das offers to help Zim by giving hm valuable information to the weaknesses of humanity and earth, in exchange for governance over the planet while it is under Irken rule.
Zim agrees to Das' offer after testing his knowledge of the planet and observing his (dare I say it) combat skills. For the first three episodes of the series Das, helps Zim with certain plans and attempting to take Dib's life. In the fourth episode, Zim decides that he no longer needs Das and reveals that he never intended to keep to their agreement and kills Das. Das, precisely 30 seconds after that, reveals that he knew that Zim would betray him. Knowing this, Das refused to tell Zim that he does not treat death as a permanent state, and that after he is killed, he comes back to the realm of the living after 30 seconds in either heaven, hell, or purgatory. Das also reveals that he wont kill Zim for betraying him if Zim keeps to their original agreement. This comes as much of a surprise to Zim and he is forced to give in to Das' original offer.
Das wears either a purple and gray strait jacket with various black leather straps, or a black jacket, each with spring loaded knives under the sleeves. Each of these choices in wardrobe he wears with black pants and black combat boots. He also wears black eyeliner similar to that of Johnny C from Jhonen Vasquez's Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. According to the author of this fan fiction series, Das is basically based off of Nny.
Das' views and personality are very dark and depressing. He makes frequent references to death, the after life, and the sad hopeless truths of some of life's aspects. Das however does not consider himself a depressed individual. He instead see's himself as an extremist idealist and visionary, with a dark sense of humor.
Das is meant to represent the fans of Invader Zim that write fan fiction, the kind of people that disappoint Vasquez, in the sense that they can not leave and are very creative in figuring things about the series, that are hidden, out.
The fan fiction that contains Das is only 4 episodes in, with the 5th episode currently in production, as of May 4th 2008 so certain things about Das are yet to be revealed to its readers.
P.S. Das usually refers to himself as "the Judas of the Human Race."
