Eath's greatest hero...is from outerspace!

Dragon Ball introduces a young monkey-tailed boy named Goku (a wry update of the classic Chinese "Monkey King" legend), whose quiet life changes when he meets a girl named Bulma who is on a quest to collect seven "Dragon Balls." If she gathers them all, an incredibly powerful dragon will appear and grant her one wish. But the precious orbs are scattered all over the world, and Bulma could use the help of a certain super-strong boy... (In Japan, Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z were originally a single 42-volume series. VIZ Media's Dragon Ball contains vols. 1-16 of the original Japanese Dragon Ball, from the beginning of the series to the climax of Goku's last fight with Piccolo.)

In the final round of the "Strongest under the Heavens" martial arts competition, it's down to Goku vs. Jackie Chun, the mysterious old man who's as powerful as Kame-Sen'nin himself! Will the audience survive the confrontation? After the smoke clears, Goku jumps on his flying cloud and returns to his quest to find the seven Dragon Balls, but now he's not the only one looking for them. The evil Red Ribbon Army wants the Dragon Balls for themselves, and to stop their plans, Goku must go around the world--and survive the six deadly floors of Colonel White's fortress, Muscle Tower!

Review

"A comic masterpiece . . . Dragon Ball's spirit of fun and adventure is unparalleled."

About the Author

Renowned worldwide for his playful, innovative storytelling and humorous, distinctive art style, Akira Toriyama burst onto the manga scene in 1980 with the wildly popular Dr. Slump. His hit series Dragon Ball (published in the U.S. as Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z) ran from 1984 to 1995 in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine. He is also known for his design work on video games such as Dragon Quest, Chrono Trigger, Tobal No. 1, and Blue Dragon. His recent manga works include COWA!, Kajika, Sand Land, Neko Majin, and a children's book, Toccio the Angel. He lives with his family in Japan.

The fun continues as Goku embarks on a quest to find the Dragon Ball his grandfather left him; the four-star ball that was lost after the previous summoning of Shenlong.

This volume includes the end of the Strongest Under the Heavens tournament (with a fittingly ridiculous final match) and begins Goku's run-in with the Red Ribbon Army. Goku's assault on their stronghold, 'Muscle Tower' is so video game-esque in its execution that I couldn't help but smile. It looks like the conclusion to that arc will be coming in volume 6. Onward!

5.0 out of 5 stars and it's cool to see the origins of such iconic characters

I'm already a fan of Toriyama's art style, and it's cool to see the origins of such iconic characters. It's not deep, but it's an amusing and quick read, and I'd recommend it to anyone interested in the style or just young at heart.

It’s good. But it felt pretty short in comparison to the last volumes. Hope they don’t just get shorter and shorter with the price remaining the same.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dragon Ball-tastic!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 21, 2014

First of all, I love the Dragon Ball Universe with all of my heart. I have played all the games, watched all the movies, watched all the anime, read all the manga, and I still want more! :)

I thought it would be great to re-buy all of the original DB manga; and check out the good old days of the Z fighters' early development - and life. And boy, was I shocked! The comedy, humor and action is out of this world.

Must purchase for die-hard Dragon Ball fans like myself..
