Zorak
Never has a repurposed cartoon brought such joy. Zorak, an evil mantis-like alien, once tried to kill superhero Space Ghost in the original 1966 Hanna-Barbera Space Ghost and Dino Boy cartoon series.
But on Cartoon Network's ever-zany talk show, Space Ghost Coast to Coast (1993-2011), he was forced to serve as the keyboardist and occasional singer. Host Space Ghost and idiot sidekick Brak are also known to step up to the mic. There was also several appearances by The Original Wayouts. Rhino Records released two CDs of their sublime ridiculousness, Space Ghost's Musical Bar-B-Que (1997) and Space Ghost's Surf & Turf (1998).
Zorak once paired with his co-worker and other Space Ghost villain Moltar to cut an album, Zorak and Moltar Sing Your Favorite Lullabies.
Later, in the "Gimme a Brak: War Next Door" episode of Space Ghost: Coast to Coast spinoff The Brak Show Zorak becomes a singing star when his voice changes (first aired 9 Sept. 2001).
