No. Keep Bardock far away from Super. He's had his time in the limelight.
Aside from the TV special, Dragon Ball Minus, and Episode of Bardock what else is there? I don't count any of the games. I feel like he's a extremely underused character in terms of the overall plot/universe of Dragon Ball.

It's not like we'll get anything though. We just had Goku Black (another Goku lookalike), so if something like that were to happen it wouldn't be for a while or at all.

The material you listed, in itself, is a lot as it is. And that's not even counting all the Heroes stuff and game material. Not to mention, some characters don't even get that. And honestly, I don't think he shouldn't have really gotten any animated material besides the original TV special.

I guess I can understand that, but I'm being picky and don't consider much of the existing content "good". The original TV special will always be a favorite of mine and Minus was decent, but everything else is lackluster. I'd just like to see Toriyama handle the character aside from Minus. Hope that doesn't sound like entitlement on my end. The character deserves better than the generic SSJ, SSJ2, and SSJ3 paint job and some random "what ifs" from the games.
