Sci-Fi martial arts action!

After years of training and adventure, Goku has become Earth's ultimate warrior. And his son, Gohan, shows even greater promise. But the stakes are increasing as even deadlier enemies threaten the planet. DRAGON BALL Z is the ultimate science fiction-martial arts manga.

The mighty djinn Boo has awakened from his aeons-old slumber! As Boo's reign of terror begins, even the mad wizard Bobbidi and his allies question whether such an uncontrollable being should have been set free. With all the universe's greatest champions dead, petrified, or beaten into unconsciousness, only one hero remains to put up a fight...Vegeta. Will he win...or will Boo be free to turn the entire population of the world into sweets and gobble them up?

    4.0 out of 5 stars The series is back on form!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 October 2014

    Now this is more like it!

    Boo has arrived: a blobby, sleeping-cat-faced monster who behaves like a child and whose head turns into a whistling kettle if you call him fat! He’s also mega-powerful. Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, EVERYONE falls to this dude – so it’s down to Son Goten and Trunks to somehow defeat him.

    There’s a lot of death in this book though it doesn’t have the same meaning as it would in other titles because of the Dragon Balls. Here, Shenlong makes an appearance and brings back some of the “dead” characters; other characters die afterwards but they’ve died before and come back… It’s hard to feel anything of import happens when someone “dies” in this series because readers have been conditioned to think of death as an inconvenience rather than a definitive end.

    There is one character though who I think we’ve seen the last of, purely because Akira Toriyama makes a point of saying that the character has gone somewhere unreachable. Their death though felt rushed and unimaginative – I was hoping for something more interesting and intense and what we got instead was… BOOM! They sploded. Ah, well. I had grown to like the character by the end, despite their earlier behaviour.

    Boo and the warlock Bobbidi begin a mass murder spree while most of the Dragon Ball cast gathers in heaven to strategize. So how do you handle atomic bomb-type city-wide devastation for an all-ages comic? You turn everyone into chocolate for Boo to munch! I know Boo’s the bad guy but he’s so silly and cute in this book, it’s hard to hate him. And the whole kettle-head thing when he gets annoyed is so adorable!

    Gohan goes into special training, Goku, in his remaining hours on Earth, begins his plan, and things feel like they’re gearing up for some righteous action. DBZ Volume 23 is a great introduction to Boo and a lot of fun to read. I was hoping the series would go out with a bang and it looks like Toriyama’s preparing to do just that.

    this is a great volume however you can definitely see how Akira went from drawing curvy lines (Dragon ball) to more straighter lines (Dragon ball z) Its not bad but you can see some rushing on drawing I guess :/ ?

    This volume is by far the best one in my opinion. It finishes the fight between Majin Vegeta and Goku. I'm not going to give anything away even though most DBZ fans knows what happens but this has Vegeta's best best moment in it.

    Clean, right colors and no bumps or bend corners!! And the story is precious. It feels a bit cheap compared to the other printing but still sturdy enough.
