Arnim Zola, in his original human form, was a brilliant but morally bankrupt biochemist working for Nazi Germany during World War II. He was obsessed with genetic manipulation and cloning, pushing the boundaries of science without regard for ethical constraints.

Zola's groundbreaking research allowed him to transfer his consciousness into a cloned body, effectively achieving immortality. His early experiments often involved horrific human experimentation.

During the war, Zola created various monstrous biogenetic creations to serve the Nazi cause, making him a dangerous threat to Allied forces. He frequently clashed with Captain America and other heroes.

Even after the fall of Nazi Germany, Zola continued his experiments, resurfacing as a recurring villain. He became affiliated with organizations like Hydra and maintained his commitment to advancing science through unethical means.

While not possessing inherent superpowers, Zola's genius-level intellect and mastery of genetic engineering made him a formidable foe. He remains a significant figure in Marvel Comics, representing the dangers of unchecked scientific ambition and moral corruption.
