What would he be like if a big-name Marvel/DC writer took them on in western comics?
Would you want to read Morrison's Goku or Geoff Johns Vegeta, ect ect?
A western DBZ run
A Goku in the DCU probably wouldnt be as utterly retarded as what Toriyama has done to the character, so yes.
UNSOLICITED OPINIONS ON NAMEK?
>Western DBZ
>expecting not to get the Bendis treatment
SURE CANNOT WAIT FOR GOKU BLACK TO BE A LITERAL YOUNGER LATINO CLONE OF GOKU NAMED EL GOKUDA
Just read Action comics
DBZ is pretty popular in Latin America so I don’t see an issue
Americans seem to misunderstand Dragon Ball in general. Aside from typically not being versed in the literature and folklore the series partially riffing on, they also seem to take it way more seriously than intended.
It starts off being about a monkey boy who thinks girls are neutered men and ends with him fighting a pink blob who turns people into candy. It's mainly meant to be funny and cool, what little is meant to be taken seriously is just there to keep the tension but it's not the focus.
And also... Do you really think an American publisher would be fine with constant panty and motorboating jokes?
DBZ run in Marvel would be more like Iron Man Power Fist.
Gohan and the Great Saiyman would be written more like Amadeus Cho.
In DC, I can honestly see Silver Age stuff or written by Timm.
It'd be shit and have tons of virtue signalling like every other goddamn western creative endeavor these days
Would Vic Mignogna voice Broly?
Broly wouldn't be in Burger Ball Z. Too much testosterone. Kale would take his place and be explicitly in-lesbians with Caulifla.
>panty and motorboating jokes
When was the last time something like that happened in DB? 30 years ago?
And they never seem to understand Goku's character and seem to think he should be some moral Hero rather than an agent of chaos
Can't wait for Frieza to be turned into a ZORNALD GROMPH expy.
>It's just evolution in comic form
if marvel wrote him he would be a "problematic male" villain who defeats galactus in one hit to show how serious of a threat he is and ultimately gets defeated by yas queen slay power
if DC wrote him he would come out as generic OC #57363646684 for the justice league to fight only to be revealed he was actually working for an even more generic really stronk cosmic being who was gonna destroy the universe for the 36369358191592 time. also something something but is you fictional and the drawings real??!
>Kale would take his place and be explicitly in-lesbians with Caulifla
So just like right now then?
They'd ruin him cause they think he'd need to have an arc where he gets better as a character, not understanding "flat character arc"
Uub already exists, they just have to make him gay and start calling himself Goku like its a title
Bruce Timm is honestly the only capeshit writer I'd actually read a DBZ adaption from
Enjoy reading how Goku and Vegeta job and get cucked by a Batman-like OC.
>Ally to good, nightmare to you!
It would be shit.
Here is your dragon ball by DC.
I don't get why people still bring this up when it's not even in the English version of Kai and Toriyama made Goku's origin into a generic ripoff of Superman
Isn't that just Invincible?
Why the fuck do americans have this shit fetish for ruining other people's creations?
No I don't want to read your shit, stop ruining things.
This, desu.
Why aren't Morrison and Geoff Johns writing about their own original characters? Why do they want to steal someone else's character and deface him into something he's not? Why are they such hacks and leeches?
it would be equally as shit as the original
Toriyama already ruined DB. A comic adaptation wouldn't hurt anyone.
No he didn't, go write your own original comic if you want shit that's catered to your shit taste you literal parasite.
Could be fun, maybe Gohan wouldn't have been cucked out of life so hard by his dad
>it's the shitposter that's always whining about Gohan
OBSESSED
Isn't DBM technically western?
Absolutely not. It'd be nothing but comic after comic of characters sitting in diners talking about their feelings.
>Goku would get character arcs despite remaining flat ever since his growth spurt
>Vegeta would be treated as disposable arch enemy 49849 instead of being the character who actually gets the most character development through Z and Super
Gohan will still be treated like shit though since he's a successor character.
Seriously why do americans steal other people's creations and don't make their own?
Because we can and you can't stop us.
I'd rather die poor honestly than let amerikikes ruin my stuff, what a disgusting system no wonder your comic industry is in the shitter
It would be awful. Americans shouldn't touch Japanese franchises and vice-versa.
