What excuse will the fighters have for not using Super Saiyan God?
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. 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.

What you said. SSJG has a massive boost and it seems pointless to ditch it.

Well, right now, there's not enough Saiyans to do it. Vegeta is possessed, Goku is hurt, and Goten is dead. That leaves, Trunks, Gohan, Pan, and Bra. That's only 4 and they need 6 to do it.

Second, Goku stated himself in BoG that he didn't like how he had to rely on everyone else for the power. He likes to gain power on his own.

Another reason comes up later

Being possessed by Aladdjin made Vegeta somewhat corrupt again?
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

May I suggest a slight adjustment in your art? Evidently your art in your manga is pretty good. Everything is pretty original so far without trace in any form. May I suggest you sharpen Gohan's hair a little bit? Also you might want to smooth out your lines as well. :)

I agree with the smooth line part. Makes it look a lot more..."official"? :eh:
Anyway, cool Xbox cover.
Here's a few more questions:
1. How many sagas do you plan to have in your series?
2. Do you plan to keep this up and not give up on it like a lot of others that have attempted their own fan-mangas?
3. (Forgot the schedule, need a reminder...) What is your current page release schedule?
4. Do you plan on making a short animated series on YouTube with your story? If so, when do you plan to release the first minisode/episode?
5. Do you believe that a fused character can still fuse with another person, and so on? (For example: Gotenks fuses with Gohan, then that fused character fuses with Goku.)
6. Which DBZ movies happened in your story's timeline?
7. Do you plan to give Pikkon a role, even though he is "technically" filler?
8. Do you plan to give SSj5 to more than just Goku (and Vegeta...)?
9. How far in SSj level can the other members of Rigor's family reach at the moment? (Even if you can only tell a few or one instead of all to cover spoilers, I'd like to know still)
10. Besides SSj1 and SSj4, do you plan to reveal "Ascended" forms for any of the other SSj stages?

More to come.

I can only do so much with my lineart. I am trying though. The digital inking just takes far too long.

1) 6 in total
2) Well, its been 8 years. No point in quitting now lol
3) I don't have a real schedule, I just try to update every other day, typically Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
4) Yes. I'm working on Minisode 1. I wouldn't have even considered had MasakoX not volunteered to be Goku.
5) No. That just seems silly.
6) The first Cooler movie and Battle of Gods.
7) No. He doesn't exist.
8 ) IDK. Its possible.
9) Too many spoilers.
10) I have some plans, you'll just have to wait and see.

I can't wait for that. Masako really needs to do a proper Goku more often. He did great in the Death Battle and his SSJ4 voice really evolved from the old MSDBZBABE video.

You may be hearing me as Rigor provided I can get that damn microphone I've been saving up for and get the role.

Redraw of Chapter 8 pg 3. I'm trying to get the first 14 chapters up to snuff before Glass City Con next year. If I can't, I'll not have full volumes for everyone :(

Next Page. Starting from Chapter 30 (this chapter) the series will be in traditional doujinshi A6 format. Slightly thinner pages, but perfect for print.

I really started to like the look on Trunks. Slightly long, but not ridiculously long hair, and an all-black outfit. It fits him and looks really well. New outfit for Gohan coming as well

Don't worry about it bro. Goten is actually going to be useful after he comes back to life.

Stop teasing him, you know as well as I that Goten is dead forever and is going to be the Saiyan equivalent of Yamcha.
