So I heard (didn't watch all episodes) that in The Brak Show Zorak is said in an episode to be 40. Yet he is said to be a teenager, acts like a teenager, is in highschool, is given homework, is grounded by his family, Brak's parents call him a boy and see him as a little friend of Brak (who is 15 in that show) and Brak's mom even kind of sees him as her other son and calls him sweet petnames brushing away his creepy crush on her as if it were just a teen crush ; and in other shows where he and Brak are considered as adults they are considered as YOUNG adults since they are like college roommates in the 2012 Cartoon Planet reboot and with how sometimes Space Ghost dads him in SGC2C whenhesnotbeingadicktohim
Having not watched that episode yet : 4 solutions
It was a nod joke to C. Martin Croker who was probably 40 back then when he voiced him
The show is extremely EXTREMELY absurd and weird and illogical and self contradicting even in context so it could have been one of these absurd shocking jokes that are deleted the very next episode like how deaths and injuries magically disappear the next episode and the character is well again
He IS 40 but Dokarians age very slowly so 40 years old Dokarians are indeed teenagers
He's like 14 but he fakes being 40 so that he can live alone like he seems to, can buy booze, can drive and can buy weapons, knowing him trafficking his ID and changing his age on it would be the tamest crime he'd have ever done to be fair
