Dorian "Zib" Zibowski is the leader of a band that performs regularly at Lackadaisy. Despite the decline of Lackadaisy since the death of Atlas, the band continues to perform there.

Physical description Zib is a tall-ish, lanky, male tabby cat. He usually appears as scruffy, with his neck and ear fur being messy. He wears an open waistcoat with a shirt (the top three buttons undone) and loose tie. He has dark markings around his eye and muzzle, giving the impression of eye bags, and has a white muzzle and eyelids.

Clothing In the pilot, he is almost always seen with a lighted cigarette in his mouth, and at one point puts a second unlighted one near the corner of his mouth, which he later takes out.

Personality and traits Zib is generally a tired, blunt man, saying what he means and not caring much about propriety. He is seen to have a fondness for cigarettes and alcohol, and a sharp temper, snapping at people who annoy him. However, it is clear that he has a passion for music and performing, still choosing to play at the Lackadaisy despite the lack of customers. Often, he will make snide jokes at the other characters' expense, and seems not to be worried about offending those that are above him. Despite his passions, however, he is shown to be rather tired and, at times, lazy. He's a working-class man currently using crime to make ends meet.

Relationships Atlas May "Vestige" hints that Zib may have had some disdain for Atlas, at least with regards to his relationship with Mitzi; he refers to the necklace that Mitzi received as a gift from Atlas as a leash, and considered Atlas a "villain" in "Blood-money".

Zib hates Atlas for knowing that Zib would not leave Mitzi, and believes that Atlas had a talent for "collecting strays" and serving as "sold ground".[2]

Mitzi May Mitzi and Zib are shown to be close,and with subtle exchanges of flirting/playful banter in the comics. It has been stated by Tracy that Mitzi and Zib already have a fling or a relationship back before Lackadaisy too, and its shown on the comics how Zib still may have some interest on her.

Calvin "Freckle" McMurray Zib and Freckle have never interacted directly. However, in "Doolally" and "Whizbang", Zib becomes very disturbed by Freckle's dark side, so much so that he tries to smoke to stay calm. In "Quicklime", Zib becomes confused by the nickname "Freckle" when Rocky first reveals it to him.

Ivy Pepper Zib appears to show some degree of deference to Ivy, calling her "Miss Pepper".

Sy Had some drunken flings with band trumpet player Sy.
