The Go! Go! Ackman 3 cel comic is a four-chapter manga series by Satoru Iriyoshi, with editorial supervision from Akira Toriyama. Each chapter is four pages long and produced in full color.

The series serves as a sequel to and continuation from the original Go! Go! Ackman manga series and the preceding first and second Go! Go! Ackman cel comics, and originally ran from the November 1995 (released 21 September 1995) to February 1996 (released 21 December 1995) issues of Shueisha's V-Jump magazine. The manga was serialized in conjunction with and to promote the Go! Go! Ackman 3 video game released on the Nintendo Super Famicom in December 1995.

At the end of its fourth chapter in the February 1996 issue, a small splash states that the respective game was due out on December 15th, while sidebar text says that the true identity of "Jibril" (the archangel Gabriel) would be revealed on the next pages — a three-page spread on the game follows in the issue.[1]

Characters

  • Ackman (アックマン Akkuman): The "hero" of our story, a young demon looking to get out there and collect souls!
  • Angel (天使 Tenshi): Ackman's primary opponent, though he doesn't pose much of a threat.
  • TBD

Production

The various "Cel Comic" series (セルコミック Seru Komikku) published in V-Jump — as opposed to standard comics (まんが manga) — were notable for their production using cel drawings, and in cases like The Brief Return of Dr. Slump, the Go! Go! Ackman cel comic, and the 1997 Savings Soldier Cashman reboot, continuing the story beyond the original manga series as first written by Akira Toriyama.

As listed on each Go! Go! Ackman 2 cel comic chapter title page:

  • Satoru Iriyoshi received the "Drawing" or "Painting" (繪 e) credit.
  • Akira Toriyama received the "Original Author" or "Original Work" (原作 gensaku) credit, indicating his role as the creator of the original Go! Go! Ackman manga series. He additionally received the "Supervisor" or "Editorial Supervisor" (監修 kanshū) credit; as a point of comparison, Toriyama received the same credit many years later for Dragon Ball: Episode of Bardock, which was written and illustrated by Naho Ooishi.

Unlike the first cel comic which listed Takao Koyama was the writer, and the second cel comic which listed Sumio Uetake as the writer, no-one receives the "Script" (脚本 kyakuhon) credit for the Go! Go! Ackman 3 cel comic.
