Attitude? That's no attitude, trust me. That's just me giving up trying to actually follow a discussion with you regarding this issue.

Yeah, I agree with you. Looks great and I wouldn't mind at all if it was an official design.

Anyway, I'm surprised to see Ghost Freeza transform before U8 Freeza. Now if U8 Freeza does it it won't be quite as surprising, although this might be used to try and establish Freeza as a threat to Goku. Now, obviously the Freeza we know would be too much for base Goku but one-shot material for Super Saiyan Goku, making the fight fairly boring. So I've been thinking for a while that the extra form is going to give a massive power boost, and that base Cooler in DBM will be portrayed as being fairly weak without the form, only stronger than Freeza while transformed.
If Super Freeza could challenge post-Buu SS Goku while Cooler was Trunks arc SS Goku level at best... why would Raichi even bother summoning him? What would Cooler be worth in a team-up?
Realistically nothing but with Kuririn putting up a resistance against Hirudegarn and SS Bardock doing better when Cold powered up meant I wasn't going to question that.

I also thought of this before this fight happened. And... I just don't see the point of matching up Freeza against Goku if he's not any better than 17. Except maybe to show "Goku still hasn't surpassed 100% Freeza in base".
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!

Plus even if 5th Form Freeza gave SSJ Goku some trouble, Goku can just go SSJ2 or SSJ3 and obliterate Freeza.

Freeza doesn't have to be able to take on fully powered Goku, or fully powered universe 13 Vegeta, or even last very long against them, for it to be fun, cool and interesting. This illusion Freeza has already been much more entertaining in just a few pages than dozens and dozens of previous DBM pages.

Different Hirudegarn from the movie and different Kuririn from the manga. And I disagree that Bardock fared better against powered up Cold than agaisnt non-powered up Cold but I think I already commented on that at the time (for example, Bardock was only able to actually hurt non-powered Cold, he was only able to make powered up Cold flinch and let go of him).

Not disagreeing with you there. I guess I owe it to Asura's art that I still have a interest in this anymore. After Gogeta Jr. left and the artistic quality dropped (unless it was Charlotte drawing) the series seemed to go downhill in a lot of things, including the story. Hopefully Asura becomes the fulltime artist and we can see the story pick itself up.

I like that design. It's sorta different than my own design of the form, but I like it.

I actually think Asura's current art is better than Gogeta Jr.'s later work. Gogeta Jr. was always great but he definitely streamlined and simplified everything over the course of the comic. An ideal scenario would be Gogeta Jr. returns and he and Asura split the work between them so nobody suffers burnout. Beta is also very good and I wouldn't mind seeing more of her. Whatever is necessary to keep the artists happy enough so they don't drop out or are forced to downgrade their efforts to meet deadlines.

And something I'll say to Salagir's credit, there have been significantly fewer grammatical errors lately.

Freeza & Coola are as strong they were in the manga/anime & movie respectively, meaning that Final Form Coola is stronger than Full Power Freeza. However, Raichi's Ghost Warriors are stronger than the real ones, and that Freeza can transform as well, so we can't know.
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.

That whole page was absolutely breathtaking.

Holy crap...I dare say that use of line shading is even better than what Toriyama employed. :shock:

1. It's he.
2. In all probability the former. He's French (or at least French-speaking) and Asura isn't a normal French name.
