History: (Who's Who in the Legion of Super-Heroes #5) - Kimball Zendak broke records in the Science Police training program. With the abrupt resignation of Chief Ianos as Chief of Earth Police Commander Hagbard promoted Zagbard as the new chief after stopping  a prison break at Takron-Galtos. Under Zendak's command the Science Police found newfound popularity, and Hagbard offered to retire so Zendak could takre his place, but Kimball hated the idea of being stuck behind a desk.

(Legion of Super-Heroes III #7) - Colossal Boy helped his mother pack up her belongings so she could return home. He said he was just getting used to the idea of her as President, and she responded that she felt the same way, which was part of the reason she resigned. Chief Zendak sent out an alert asking for Legion assistance. The remaining members of the Legion of Super-Villains were approaching Earth, and he wanted them arrested before landing. Colossal Boy was quick to respond.

(Legion of Super-Heroes III #9) - The Legion were reunited with their members lost in Limbo, and threw a huge party. Zendak attended, and when he learned his nephew Symyn was lost in Catskill Park he decided to send Shvaughn Erin to find him with a life detector instead of leaving the party. Lightning Lass yelled at him for being so thoughtless. Shvaughn found the buy, whose leg had been pinned under a tree, and was shocked when Element Lad came to meet her, having skipped the party. After shedding some tears of gratitude she took him back to her apartment, and said she felt they’d been getting really close right before he disappeared. Element Lad said he didn’t want to keep anything from her, and had some secrets to get off his chest, but was embarrassed. Shvaughn said he could tell her all about it after they had some intimate time together. They were interrupted by a holo-call from Kimball Zendak, who told Shvaughn there was trouble in hong Kong and the Legion would have to be sent in. Element Lad apologized for having to leave, and arranged with Dream Girl to have Chameleon Boy, Invisible Kid, Lightning Lass and Shrinking Violet meet him there. The Sklarians were illegally shipping frozen organs to their home planet and the Legion shut them down.
