Hybrid　Zn-Air　and　Zn-MX　(MX　refers　to　metal　species　with　cation　redox　properties)　batteries　that　combine　the　merits　of　both　types　are　attracting　increasing　interest.　However,　the　low　areal　capacity　of　the　Zn-MX　segment　hinders　their　applications　toward　power　resilience.　Increasing　the　electrochemically　active　material　loading　is　critical　to　achieving　sufficient　capacity　but　poses　a　challenge　for　conventional　electrodes　to　maintain　fast　gas　diffusion,　which　is　necessary　for　the　Zn-air　function.　Herein,　we　report　an　advanced,　monolithic,　carbon-based　current　collector　by　growing　carbon　nanotubes　(CNT)　onto　a　3D　graphene　network　(3DGF).　The　porous　and　highly　conductive　current　collector　readily　accommodates　more　electrochemically　active　material,　NiCo2O4　(NCO),　thereby　improving　the　Zn-NCO　segment＇s　capacity　without　sacrificing　the　Zn-air　segment＇s　performance.　The　3DGF/CNT/NCO　electrode　was　fabricated　into　a　hybrid　Zn　battery　which　achieved　a　superior　areal　specific　capacity　of　2.87　mAh　cm-2　at　5　mA　cm-2,　almost　threefold　of　previously　reported　values,　and　an　impressive　rate　capability　and　cycling　stability　with　98%　of　original　capacity　retained　after　1000　cycles　at　20　mA　cm-2　charging/discharging　current　density.　This　work　showcases　3DGF/CNT　as　an　advanced　current　collector　architecture　for　new　and　novel　batteries.
