Who wants to be a superhero (Michsi) by far. It's the only fancomic that I enjoy 100% without any problems.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Hopefully I can get DBSW up there with the AF doujin. Got a lot of work ahead.

I can't believe I forgot about that comic! I feel like a jerk for not including it on my list.

Very true. I don't put down anyone, but I feel like its kinda lazy for fans to jump on Toyble's coattails and use his design instead of creating their own. Sure, mine might be a little wonky to some, but at least I designed it myself.

Also, to add to my first post, I like Multiverse, but like all fancomics, it has issues. The main one being that the "strongest" fighter has switched between around 6 or so different people. Vegetto and Broly fought and almost everyone said "they're stronger than all of us!" Then Ultimate Boo comes up super powerful, enough to the point where he feels equal or superior to Vegetto. Then Bra's SSJ2 is shown to be super destructive. Then Gast Carcohl effortlessly stops Ultimate Boo. Cell, despite stating how overmatched he is, feels compelled to stay for some reason, so he must be hiding something. Then XXI just teleports Vegetto away like nothing. I don't know, maybe its a personal nitpick, but I feel like Salagir feels like he knows what direction he wants to take the comic in, but then changes it up when he gets another idea.

Still, love the comic. Honored that I got to do a Minicomic for them, and possibly be able to do more in the future.

I really hope that someday someone will properly scanlate Jijii's fancomic. I'd love to read it, but nobody seems to care translating it.

I was tempted several months ago to make a fanlation of Jijii's stuff, even though I don't know how to read Japanese fluently. I was basically going to look at the story, and come up with dialogue in proper English that would fit the scenario as it appeared in the comic. Maybe I still will, IDK

Very funny Goken, though nice to know I'm in the tap half. I'm gonna post a rough draft of our new character Mani on my topic. Ill edit in a profile later when we make one.

Tobyle's AF comic feels like something Toei would have done back in the late 90's if they keep the series longer. It's a shame that he hardly give us out new chapters and the story has been going on for way too long. DBM started out good then it jump the shark around the Broli vs. Vegito fight. I still check up on the new pages, but the series has awful placing issues.

Yeah all the specials get annoying. I'm liking the current Vegito VS Kid Buu special but the stuff such as Bra becoming Vegito's heir or Trunks finding 16 in his own time were annoying.

Wasn't that one of the earliest chapters? And yes the pacing is TERRIBLE.

Definitely have to add to the love for Little Saiyalings. It was one of the first webcomics I ever read, and it's still one of my favorites. After that, I'd also have to say Who Wants To Be A Superhero?, since it really feels like it belongs in the DB series proper. Besides, most DB fancomics focus on action, but this one throws itself entirely into comedy and does it so, so well.

And I'm conflicted on where to put Dragon Ball Multiverse...I really enjoy it and save the pages to my computer as they come out for eventual re-reading, but eh...it has it's ups, it has it's downs. Overall I still really enjoy it though, enough so that I'm continuing to follow it.

Oh! I think it's been abandoned or at least on hiatus or something, but since Kaboom's GTR doesn't count, how about his Dragon Bites? :P The few that were put out where really good.

I really haven't read many others beyond that yet sadly. I've read part of one of the AF ones but I can't remember who's, haven't gotten to DBNA yet, and I haven't read any of Scarz's Chi Chi's Peril yet either.
