Zak

Zak Knudson used to like N’Sync in high school. He still likes Coldplay but has come a long way since then, thank God. Unlike most people, he still considers Pluto to be a planet…probably the coolest planet of all. Zak provided the voice for Wheeler, the fire wielding Planeteer on the awesome environmentally conscious cartoon Captain Planet.
Zak’s myspace profile is here. As you can see, Zak is NOT the drummer for Oasis. That’s another Zak, people.

Zak’s future plans included working way too much for a search engine marketing company in Chicago, evangelizing for My Morning Jacket and riding off into the sunset. However, he was recently surprised by an intruder in his home and tragically shot. He helped the police apprehend the criminal, but died hours later of his wounds. All of Zak’s writing for Superstarcastic is from beyond the grave.

His last wish was for everyone to abide by the principles of Team Planet which are amazingly written by the one and only Phil Collins - no joke!

Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water!
Heart!

GO PLANET!

With your powers combined I am Captain Planet!

Captain Planet, he’s our hero,
Gonna take pollution down to zero,
He’s our powers magnified,
And he’s fighting on the planet side

Captain Planet, he’s our hero,
Gonna take pollution down to zero,
Gonna help him put us under,
Bad guys who like to loot and plunder

We’re the planeteers,
You can be one too!
‘Cause saving our planet is the thing to do,
Looting and polluting is not the way,
Hear what Captain Planet has to say:

“THE POWER IS YOURS!!”
