THAT


WAS




AWESOME.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

Michsi, you're seriously awesome! *_*
There's a lot of well-drawn backgrounds with amazing detail in this last batch of pages, and your sense of humor is still rocking. :D
Thank you, and keep up the good work.

This is amazing. X3
I'm so happy there's more.

"Director" Goku along with Piccolo's fear of rice cookers, plus Vegeta standing around there 'looking pretty' along with the worm bit at the end. XD

I don't know if I've posted her or not, but I've been following your pages ever since you first started this. Oh man...this last batch was even more glorious than any before it. :lol: And that's high praise after the Mr. Satan stuff from a while back.

It's still holding strong. The art has improved a lot. I especially like how you put so much detail in the panick-stricken face of that crook!
The jokes are really funny. Especially the whole original part about rice cookers and the flashback where Piccolo accuses them for wanting to imprison him again.
Piccolo and Vegeta's interactions are genius.

I think what makes this so amazing is that it manages to be such silly fun without distorting the character's personalities.

I see that people have commented on the art. This makes me happy. I did try to put more effort this time since it kinda started to bother me how the previous pages looked . I know there is plenty of room left to improve and I won't lie and say I'm good with backgrounds and perspective and so on, but I will try and be more professional from now on, since I also want to use this fancomic to practice..

Anyway, thank you very much for the comments :D.

Actually, I was thinking more of accusing just Chichi. I kinda have this idea of how these two were "getting along" while he stayed with them. It's kind of another story I might do, after I finish this. Not really original though, since I think there I've seen another fancomic with this idea some years ago somewhere on the net....we'll see.....

Really? I think the backgrounds are good! The terrain in this instalment looks very good. I like your style the most of all the fan comics/manga I've seen, and I'm sincere about that.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

Thanks!

Well, the backgrounds here mostly consisted of rocks and boulders, so it was pretty easy. City backgrounds are a whole different level and that's what I'm going to have to draw for the next scenes.

I'm not sure, it's been a while. I think there was something with gifts in it. I think it was on dev.art and it was coloured.

I seriously cannot get enough of this. More more more more! And yeah, the art on the crooks is really fantastic.

I didn't really get the Vegeta/worm joke, though. Can anyone clue me in?

It's a reference to the filler scene of Vegeta and Goku meeting sentient worms in Boo's stomach. Vegeta says he hates slimy things and he thinks he's going to puke.

Oh God, I marathonned this entire series in one go. This is hilarious! Truly genius! And yes, I noticed an upgrade in the art in this chapter. Very neat!

Goku as a director was awesome! Didn't think he'd know the intricacies of a superhero movie. :lol: Not to mention how he put Vegeta in his place with the worm bit. XD

Keep this going, it's amazing! :mrgreen:

Is there any chance we could be getting some color panels?

I'm afraid that would take up too much time and I already don't have much of that to dedicate to this fancomic as it is.
Who knows, I might give it a shot with a one or two panels I really like, but don't count on it.


If anybody else would like to try though , they are welcomed to it :)

Great as always, but the panel where the crook throws the rice cooker and the one that follows are kind of awkward. I mean, I know that it's supposed to be kind of a mystery as to what freaked him out, but it bugs me. The idea of him being afraid of rice cookers is one of the funniest things I've seen related to Dragon Ball in a long time, though (and I love me some Team Four Star).
This will never not be my sig:

I can't believe this is on-topic.

I know I'm late, but I've just stumbled on this, and just all the pages. Funny as hell, and you can definitely see the improvement on the art side the more you went on. Great job Michsi, can't wait to see more.
