History
Toyotarō's Dragon Ball Heroes: Victory Mission manga series went on an announced hiatus[1] following its 28th chapter in the February 2015 issue of Shueisha's V-Jump magazine (released in December 2014). A three-part manga adaptation of the then-forthcoming Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F' theatrical film was announced in the very next issue (the March 2015 issue released in January 2015), set for serialization across the April, May, and June 2015 issues (released in February, March, and April 2015).[2]

Major Characters
Supporting Characters
- Sorbet (キャビラ Kyabira): One of Chilled's henchmen. Likely gets his name from non-fertilized sturgeon roe, better known to most as "caviar." In Japanese, the phonetics of the French word "caviar" are approximated using katakana as キャビア (kyabia). Although the trailing "r" of "caviar" is phonetically present with the hard "a" sound in Japanese, it is not visually seen when the word is romanized. To create this name pun, the "r" was playfully reintroduced into the characters name as キャビラ (kyabira), although still not as a trailing consonant. Cavira's single horn is most likely a homage to the large tail fin of the Sturgeon fish he is named after.
- Tagoma (トビ Tobi): Like Cavira, Chilled's other henchman Tobi also likely has a fish roe name pun. His name is appears to be based on the Japanese word とびこ (tobiko), which is used to describe Flying Fish roe. This type of roe is most widely known for its use in creating certain types of sushi. It is most likely because of his Flying Fish name pun that Tobi features two fin-like horns on his head resembling the Flying Fish's larger pectoral fins.
- Beerus (イパナ Ipana): TBD. Likely gets his name from the pineapple plant (パイナップル painappuru). As with Chilled's henchmen, Ipana's head reflects the likely name pun, with his own shaped like a pineapple.
- Whis (ベリー Beri): TBD
