DB After and New Age

Post by ecrockedboston » Thu Feb 09, 2017 1:41 pm

I just purchased these, and I'm wondering what your thoughts are? The art seems pretty good, and they might read as decent side stories while waiting for Super to release. I was considering Zeroverse, but it just looks terrible.

Here's the cover for DB After

And New Age covers

And for Zeroverse

As you can tell, Zeroverse simply looks awful... Here are some panels

New Age

I think it's pretty clear as to why I skipped Zeroverse. After's author seems to have a pretty big following. Also, his original doujinshi prints go for thousands.

By the way, DB New Age has a thread of its own here if you'd like to check it out: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=21620
I'm back!

Lurking around here since 2014. Just an old fan who regained his passion for Dragon Ball since then.

Haha, I wondered where my thread went. I started it in the General Franchise board, but here makes more sense.

I just got my DB After 3-in-1, but there's only one volume to my knowledge :/ Which sucks because it looks promising.

As for New Age, it looks pretty rockin'. I'll check out that thread! The tangible releases are dirt cheap on Amazon, so I picked those up too.

I read a bit of New age and was easily bored as I got further into it. Especially when I couldn't differentiate the Villain from other Saiyans, sometimes he's broly, then Raditz, then Vegeta...
When Super apparently shoves Goku down our throats:

You mean Rigor? Yeah, I enjoyed the fact that he was incredibly pragmatic, but he was incredibly cliche. Also if your bored of Rigor... Then the next villain will absolutely bore you to tears.
