In one universe, Zoot Jensen was the husband of Loxie Smith. Together, the two owned and operated the Koala Bay Bares Naturist Resort; practicing as he preached, Zoot was rarely seen wearing anything more than flip-flops.

Loxie and Zoot's business was often threatened by their bigoted neighbour Tex Tyler. Jenny Everywhere once shifted into the middle of the Resort, and, although Zoot and his wife originally assumed her to be either mad or simply concussed from the shock of her rough parachute-landing, she ended up helping them foil Tyler's latest scheme.

Since this scheme was a classic supernatural hoax, with Tyler dressing up as a vengeful ghost, Jenny suggested that the Koala Bay Bares use body paint and sound effects to disguise themselves as a cohort of nudist spooks intent on taking their “wayward sibling” Tyler back to the Underworld. Zoot participated in the prank, which had the desired effect of scaring Tyler off, and after which Jenny left that universe. (COMIC: Ghost Story)

Some time later, after she was revealed as a Fairy, stranded interdimensional traveller Abúi was brought to meet Loxie and Zoot, who told her about their encounter with another, more competent multiversal traveller in the form of Jenny. They agreed to ask Jenny to help Abúi get back home if and when they found a way to contact Jenny, and told her to stick around in Koala Bay until then. (COMIC: Incognito)

Much later, Jenny showed up at Loxie and Zoot's house without warning, shifting in through their bathroom mirror. Delighted by the surprise visit, the two gave her a tour of the Resort, updating her on what had happened since she was gone. After Jenny ran into Sven Allestädes and did her best to avoid a conversation with him, Zoot tried to ask Jenny about her history with Sven while they were swimming in the pool, but Jenny's answer was evasive. The conversation was interrupted by the arrival of another interdimensional traveller, a returning Abúi, who had brought friends. (COMIC: The Nicest Place in the Universe)

Behind the scenes

Zoot was one of the main characters of the webcomics Loxie & Zoot and The Bare Pit. His full name was not mentioned in COMIC: Ghost Story. His profile on the official Bare Pit cast list read:

Zoot, along with his wife Loxie, is a co-owner of the Koala Bay Bares Naturist Resort. This has helped him realise the dream of a lifetime... to go to work nude! Raised in a naturist family, Zoot has grown up a lifelong nudist. Whilst clothes aren't anathema to him, he has been known to forget to get dressed when venturing into the textile world. Zoot also has an interest in writing for TV and has a few ideas in the pipeline (none of them very original).
