This issue went on sale on 13 June 1989 and featured the original printing of Dragon Ball Chapter 228. This cover gets a small reprint in the 30th Anniversary Super History Book.[1] The illustration itself gets a half-page reprint in Dragon Ball Daizenshuu 1 ("The Complete Illustrations")[2] and a quarter-page reprint in the Dragon Ball Chōgashū ("A Visual History").[3]
