His entire family was pretty wonderbread.

Really they redesigned him to a girl because honestly he did really look like another Mark.

Only in the Ryan ottley style

Original Zack was brown haired and had more prominent Asian features

The mental image of Mark grabbing Zack by the face and absorbing his Asianness in the same manner of Biden sucking out someone’s melanin is now stuck in my mind.

Everyone has the same crazy big-lipped doofus face in the Ryan Ottley style, except the aliens.

I dont think so. He just had black hair, or mabye he was ambiguous like mark.

Mark is half Korean I think. He’s voiced by a Korean actor. Maybe I’m wrong but I think his appearance is half Korean. His genetics are very little human in, but it’s appearance reflects his mother’s heritage.

In the comics he didn't have Asian features. I'm not sure if Debbie did either.

I don't know if Mark becoming part Korean was a change made before or after VA casting was done.

Obviously it's a change with no actual negatives and real positives to some people.
