But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Re: Fanmanga - another DBAF
Just a minor correction, it seems that Sonogono isn't the name of the author, but rather the title Sonogo no Dragon Ball (その後のドラゴンボール) translating to something along the lines of "After Dragon Ball" also the image doesn't seem to be showing.DBZGTKOSDH wrote: Sonogono's Dragon Ball:

The fact that we were just going back and forth on which is better, then for him to post an image of homage.SuppaSaiyanNerd wrote:What "twist of irony"?

Re: Fanmanga - another DBAF
Hmm, I've skipped a lot of pages, so I'm not sure if it's been said already, but isn't making money off AT's work illegal? They are selling it and making money right? Seems pretty cheap and un-authentic to me, these people should go and draw their own work instead of writing terrible stories of SSJ5's and whatnot.
Re: Fanmanga - another DBAF
In Japan licensors tend to look the other way unless the project becomes a big success. Selling a few magazines at a con or even online isn't bound to make the creator a whole lot of dough.

Ah, I guess I should explain why I haven't scanned any more pages yet?
Well, I have a chronic pain disorder, and I've been having flare ups recently, so even seemingly simple things like scanning is quite painful.
I've very, very, very sorry for the dely.
I will try and get the scans done tomorrow.

If I may pull a desire, could I suggest using DropBox, StarRot? It's free and easy to use and you can store quite a bit for free. This way we don't have to play musical chairs with hosting sites.
