These are graphic novels, the others [the originals] were comic book issues.

Since Dragon Fall is a parody, (legal mumbo-jumobo goes here), check out "Onemanga" for some translated chapters.
I checked and they didn't have it...
My bad. It's on Mangavolume.

Yup... They have it! Although this does support that the scanlators dropped the project... :/

So it means a difference to size or what?

These graphic novels are collected editions. It's like a tankobon, made up of reprinted material.

Holy shit... A-all of them?! O_o; I mean, was there an explosion, or.... I mean, Jesus... :shock:

Did the authors just not want their work translated? Did they have them assassinated?

Such a cruel and unfair world is ours. :cry:

No idea. I remember reading a scanlation of the first chapter, but I don't remember reading any more of it. Would asking for scanlations of Dragon Fall be against the rules, since it's not licensed in the USA? Note that I'm not asking for scanlations, just if it would be against the rules to do so.
I second this ( if possible).
I third that. Is there somewhere online that these can be ordered?

@helldog - I know WHERE they are from but Why make those chapters like that if all the other ones kind of go along with the sagas

It looks like, as the series went on, it followed the Dragonball storyline less and less. Issue 4 has tons of Star Wars references.

It's like this series isn't sure if it wants to be "Drawn Together" or "Dr.Slump".

The original issues were the size of standard comic books. These are the size of the Japanese tankoubon. These have five issues to each book.

Try casadellibro.com although I'm not sure if their shipping rates will be much better. Let me know how much they charge if you go through them.
