Contents

The comic’s standard front and back cover (sans dust jacket) use pink-toned versions of the comic’s main dust jacket artwork and the movie’s official poster, respectively.

The book contains material introducing the characters in the story before covering the entirety of the film itself. Following this, the entire staff and cast of the movie are listed on the last page.

Notes

• Shueisha did not begin releasing film animation comics for the Dragon Ball franchise until 1992, well after many movies had already been produced. This film comic was eventually released in May 1994, just under 4 years after the movie’s theatrical premiere in July 1990.

Franchise Timeline

At the time this film comic was released the Dragon Ball Z TV series was in the midst of the Majin Boo story arc, with Gohan squaring off against Dabra on Stage 3 of Bobbidi’s ship and then Vegeta allowing himself to be “possessed” by Bobbidi’s magic. The series’ theatrical films had also reached the reappearance of Broli.
