Description Goku sends the stunt double flying off into the distance with a simple kiai.


Fake!Goku is stunned while Vegeta enjoys a cheeky victory.


Oh yes, they will hear from Vegeta if a "sequel" does go through.
Because you know the villain in the sequel would be?


THE END!


I'm very happy with how the colors came out with this comic. :3
It wasn't as high-intensity to work on as Suite, but I still learned stuff.

Also, Chatwin's gi is WAY too fancy to function properly for Goku. The wristbands look like they'd cut off circulation and the belt's just...really oversized.


Hope you enjoyed the comic. :3
Thanks for reading!

Considering how the actual Evolution went, I bet Nappa is the main villian with his side kick zarbon.

Seriously, why was Mia piccolo's side kick?

I was just relieved that Vegeta was spared from the movie.

Actually, Vegeta's dodged the live action bullet three times; in the past there's been live action DB movies made in China and Korea; both also started from DB as opposed to Z, and thus, no Vegeta. :3


Oh I can totally see that happening; Nappa and Zarbon.

They probably picked her because its:
1) Cheaper than creating Piano, Drum, etc on-screen.
2) They didn't care about accuracy at all.
3) Attempted sexual tension issues for the main character.


I read recently that James Marsters revealed the budget was more like 30 million or so, that probably attributed a lot to it.

I feel so bad for Stuntku...>.<

Ouchies, lets hope he lands some where soft, like a mattress factory...

Ku-chan you could have been a bit less over zealous after all the poor guys only human! D:

Who would play Vegeta, Van Desel of course... or Jet Li, those were my votes.

Vejita: Do we get badges?

Lol too cute! Goku seemed to want to have badges too!

The sequel will follow I will be director and it will focus on GOHAN! who will be played by Jackson Rathbone who plays Jasper Hale on Twilight, And Densel Washington or some simularly buff black guy will play Piccolo

and a hot cutie Asian will play Goku as god always intended it!

The Rock will be Buu because that will be funny! And atleast The Rock knows how to fight (Somewhat)

Agreed, do you realize in the movie Grampa G gives Goku the 3 star dragonball for his eighteenth birthday??

I mean MY GOD, could they like, not get full rights cause Funimations got it over here so there just slapping a story togather with veagly VAGUELY the same idea!?

Lets review!

-Goku is an 18 year old UNPOPULAR highschool student HELLO? GOKU? UNPOPULAR?? Is that even possible with his fun loving lets hang out attitude??

-Kuririn's name is Weaver and he makes the breifest of appearances as Goku's only friend

-Oolong, Puar, Chioutzu, Korin... forget it they're not in here.

-Mai is Piccolo's henchmen (No Pilaf or Shuu) and shes a SHAPE SHIFTER??? Who gets hot and heavey with our boy Goku in one scene while posing as his love interest Chichi

-Either Tien or Yamucha or both are Biker bioys

-And that OUTFIT!!! >(

What FOX could you not remember what his damn Gi looks like?? Here's a hint: IT DARK ORANGE TOP AND BOTTOM WITH A BLUE UNDER SHIRT WRIST BANDS AND A SMALL BELT!!!

I think that has to be my biggest peev that they couldn't even get his clothes right.

I dunno, I'm still dragging Lain along with me to go see it but...

I'm gonna freak out once the Live Action volcano erupts into the public eye. TT_TT
It's such an awful inaccurate representation of the entire series that it depresses me.


I'm hoping that because of when the live action movie is scheduled that it'll be buried alive by the Hannah Montana and Wolverine (both of which come out very shortly after the live action movie; Montana's comes out only two days after live action).

If it gets buried and makes the dismal sort of cash Speed Racer did (Speed made 44 mil on a 120 mil budget; live action's got a 100 mil budget) I bet it'll insure no sequel and no Vegeta-destroying will occur.

I'm amused by fake!Goku's expression in the last panel. Yes, you should be afraid, very afraid.

It's kind of strange to think of someone playing Vegeta in a live action adaptation (or bastardization as the case may be). I've never really considered who might be able to play him, and, honestly, I hope I never have to find out so long as these people are in charge of things.

Chuquita In reply to TalentlessMuse [2009-01-03 05:55:29 +0000 UTC]

Vegeta's wrath is a powerful one.

Me neither; "who would play who" never really comes to mind; but I'm hoping that this movie ends up like Speed Racer and thus loses so much cash that they never make a sequel.


It's possible too that there won't be one; while the live action movie premieres in the U.S. on April 8th, Hannah Montana comes out with a movie on April 10th.
I can't stand her, but I'm more than obliged to allow her fanbase to bury this movie alive where it'll be forgotten.
And if not her, Wolverine comes out in early May; surely a Marvel adaption would wipe out the live action movie's chances for significant cash flow.


I don't mean to be hard on the live action movie, but it just feels like they took every wrong turn they possibly could with it. @_@

I know what you mean, what's scary is that the whole concept they had about Goku being a High School student wasn't a last minute resort, ben Ramsey cooked that concept up back in 2005. But what would be sad is that there probably won't be another opportunity to make it the epic popcorn mvoie we all want to see. So no reboots after it flops.

What would be interesting about Wolverine beating up the DB movie is that you have a hugh jackman mvoie slicing up what could've been a hugh jackman movie. What I mean by that is years ago Jackman was set to play Goku but kept holding it off, projects like Van Helsing and X-2 kep him busy if not just those two but his career in general, he didn't have the heart for it and kept it on hold for so long that he got fired. Jackman is actually the sole reason why that project never went through.

Really?!

I had no idea he was slated to play Goku. That could've been interesting.

*Wonders what they would've done with the hair....*


But yeah, I agree; if they had been more faithful to the source material, a live action DB could've been epic.


I feel awful about what it came down to, but even if we don't get a reboot with a better cast and better writers (even the Hulk eventually got a reboot) at least we won't get a sequel.

I don't want to see what this group would do to Vegeta. @_@

Cure4 In reply to Chuquita [2009-01-10 03:15:16 +0000 UTC]

Yes, Hugh Jackman was going to play Goku circa 2002-2003. The rsest of the cast included-
-Eliza Dushku( Faith from Buffy, Arnold's duaghter from True Lies) as Chichi.
-Jessica Alba as Bulma.
-Ray Park( Darth Maul, Toad from X-Men) as Vegeta.
-Pro Wrestler Bill Golderberg as Nappa.
-Chris Judge( Stargate SG-1) as Piccolo.
-Jason Bateman as Raditz.
-Orlando Bloom as Tien.
-And though nobody was sure there would be a second sequel, there was a rumor that The Rock was going to play Cell.

According to another Devaint here, who did a Star Wars/DBZ parody pic, Ray Park was in contract for two years and Fox didn't call him back.

The director would've been Roland Emmerich( Independence Day, Stargate, Universal Soldier, The Patriot, The Day After Tomorrow) and the writer of Terminator 3 was to pen it. ILM, George Luas' baby SFX company, was assigned to do the SFX.

What would've been quite juicy is to know that this movie would've been up to 3 to four hours long and would've had as much bigger budget.

There is a rare to find outline of the plot somewhere on the internet, would you like it if I linked it to you?

The reason why the Hulk got a reboot was becuase Marvel wanted one, not technically the studio from scratch, that and it should alot of potential at the box office for them more at the moment. A DB reboot would seem to be a little more a of complicated process jut to get a reboot out of it.

I agree, I fear that they'll make Vegeta some kind of soldier for the u.s. army who is related to Goku and finds out that he was a Sayian prince all along, he was just uncounscious most of his life.

Chuquita In reply to Cure4 [2009-01-10 05:14:01 +0000 UTC]

That could've made for an interesting live action movie.
2002-2003 seems like a more logical time for this movie to have been made; even if we do have more high-tech special effects today.

It looks like they would've jumped right into the saiyajin arc then.
I don't see Kuririn listed there, but good on them for actually casting Tenshinhan. One of the things that bothers me about the current live action movie is that Tenshinhan--who had a major role in the Piccolo arc--was cut from the script.


If you have the link I'd like to read it; but if you can't find it, please don't worry about it. Its ok. :3



Wow, that's a lot more out there for a messing-Vegeta's-backstory than my personal fear of them pulling a gender-bender and making Vegeta a woman for the sake of sexual tension adam/eve sort of thing.

Cure4 In reply to Chuquita [2009-01-10 06:46:29 +0000 UTC]

Not only that but during the period of 2002-2003 DBZ was more popular through it's television audience, so the chances of it being a hit would've been larger than they are now.

Here's the link, hope it works for you, since this is the only site that I know of which contaisn actual details about the originally conceived film-
[link]
( Ignore the casting of Mini me and jackie chan, those were just for comedic reasons, I beleive)

Keep in mind this could've been fan written, if it was legit then that sounds like a pretty good concept, though the Dragonball side of it but hey at least Goku's not some high schooler.

As far as the 2003 movie could've went, I'm sorry for Ray Park, this sort of movie would've proven to hollywood that he is more than just a stunt man, but no.

As for Tien not being in the movie, well although he played a major role in that saga, we alreayd have too many characters already and it is somewhat above 100 minutes no less, there is a thing called less is more, and sadly it can apply to characters, unfortunatley.

Yeah it is, hope they don't consider that idea becuase then it would be too last minute with the character.

TalentlessMuse In reply to Chuquita [2009-01-03 22:40:07 +0000 UTC]

Vegeta is also much less forgiving.

I can't believe I'm almost cheering for the Hannah Montana movie...this is indeed a sad, sad day for Dragonball fandom. Still, those are two fanbases that don't seem to have a lot of overlap, and Dragonball is aimed more at a male audience while HM is marketted to tween (god, that's a stupid word) girls. Of course, it's interesting that the Dragonball fanbase in North America seems to be predominantly female. Maybe that's why they're trying to play up the romance a bit...Still sucks.

I don't think it'll matter much by the time Wolverine comes out. Most movies make the biggest profits within the first few weeks of opening. The live action movie have been out for almost a month at that point.

I don't think you're being unfairly harsh on this movie. The fact that the majority of the fanbase seems to have made a similar judgment about this movie says that you're no harsher than most of the rest of us. You're just a fan wanting to preserve the thing you enjoy.

Chuquita In reply to dracostarhome [2009-01-02 06:16:40 +0000 UTC]

I can come up a few nightmarish scenarios about what they could potentially do to Vegeta (both in personality and in looks) after having seen Chatwin and his ".....................cool." Goku who clearly "isn't ready for this".



I have no idea who I'd pick to play him; I've never really done the whole "who would you cast in a movie" thing much before.


It has to be someone who'd actually look the part (and obviously be a good actor as well). I'm already sick of cropped-top light-brown-hairred blue-eyed Chatku; Live Action Vegeta's got to have black hair (or really really dark brown hair) and black eyes.


Also, they can't mess with Vegeta's hair; I could understand if they crop his flame down to "realistic" size; but it still has to look like Vegeta's hair (widow's peak included).

LOL I'm really scrutinizing when it comes to potential live action Vegeta after what I've seen happen to Goku.

*Imagines Vegeta with Raditsu-length hair*.



I do have a horrible fear that they'd gender-swap Veggie based on their penchant for mostly-shoujo casts. (Looks at the group poster which has Fake!Goku, Fake!Chi-Chi, Fake!Bulma, and Fake!Mai on it). *Head-desks because this is Dragon Ball, not Tenchi*. >_O

Also, they seem to be pulling from U.S. comics; I can totally them turning Veggie into some kind of Catwoman-esque character who tries to seduce Fake!Goku over to the dark side.

or ~insert Kill Bill sequence~ ... although I do like that fist-a-hand-lenght-away power- packed-punch idea... ^_^

thats not hard to imagine with Vegeta and Raditz though, they both have the same widows peek and I've often wondered if the idea for Vegeta wasn't Toriyamas way of making up for the rejected version of Raditz.

I've often though that since Raditz was rejected by toriyamas fans as a good character if Toriyama himself still wanted a widow peeked warrior of the Saiyan race and just cut off Raditz's hair and dropped him a foot or two and if that wern't his inspriation for Raditz.

They do look alike heck and Picture out there if Vegeta could EASILY be made into a Raditz just by adding long hair..
