Icon-kamenriderThis article is about a villain in Kamen Rider, the original series.

Colonel Bakarashin Iinodevitch Zol, commonly known as Colonel Zol (ゾル大佐, Zoru Taisa), is the leader of Shocker's Near and Middle East Branch, transferred to Japan to improve their success rate there. His true form is a wolf monster known as Wolf Man (狼男, Ōkami Otoko) (a.k.a. Golden Wolf Man (黄金狼男, Ōgon Ōkami Otoko)).

History[]

Kamen Rider[]

Colonel Zol was a former member of the Nazi Party, born in Leipzig, Germany. He also served as superior officer to Neo Shocker member General Monster, when the latter was still an officer at the concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau. Zol lost his eye after an explosive gas leak and covered it with an eyepatch. After World War II, he was invited to join Shocker by the Shocker Leader. Zol kept his old uniform to show pride in his past despite being called a war criminal, thanks to the Nuremberg Trials, which, presumably thanks to Shocker, he escaped from with his life. He then went through the altering process of becoming a cyborg. His personal mark, worn by the Combatmen of his own Shocker outpost and used in his official correspondence, was the Shocker emblem, but with the bird's head replaced by a wolf's.

Driven by hate, he brought a wave of destruction to the Middle East to build Shocker's utopia there until he was called to Japan. He confronted Kamen Rider Two himself in episode 39 and after a lengthy fight was toppled off a cliff by Kamen Rider Two's Rider Punch, destroying him. Wolf Man briefly appeared in Kamen Rider vs. Shocker among the members of the resurrected monster army.

Along with Dr. Shinigami, Jigoku Taishi, and General Black. He was resurrected by Doctor G to initiate Operation: Japan Annihilation using a new toxic gas called Girard Gamma. His assignment is Hokkaido. When Jigoku Taishi captured by V3, he tried to execute him using his gun until Great Leader interference stating they cannot afford to lose even Jigoku Taishi when carried out their mission and let V3 go as he pleases. He died with the other revived commanders when Destron's base accidentally self-destructed.

Kamen Rider Decade[]

Narutaki Colonel Zol

Narutaki as Colonel Zol

In Kamen Rider Decade: Final Chapter, Narutaki becomes Colonel Zol to once and for all destroy Kamen Rider Decade. Together with Dr. Super Shinigami and what's left of Dai-Shocker, they form Super Shocker. Unlike original Zol, Narutaki as Zol does not transform into Inhumanoid Golden Wolf Man in the movie due to his lack of cybernetic implants. When Tsukasa is revived after his voluntary destruction, he, Yusuke, Kaito, and Natsumi turn into their rider forms to fight against Zol and his army. When Doras goes on a rampage and Zol is knocked out of his way, he reverts back to Narutaki and flees.

World of OOO[]

In S.I.C. Hero Saga OOO Edition, Narutaki finally transformed into the Inhumanoid Golden Wolf Man.
