  • The complete Illustrations of DB

    This book is good, if a bit watered down, I expected waaay more illustrations. Apparently there are DBZ illustration books, detailing from that (series) more research is required in my case. The real treat is the interview he did back in 95', he talks about his art and technique a bit more in depth than I thought he would which I enjoyed. Also comes with a fold-out poster of goku, signed and has an alternative sketch of the DB crew at the end of the series, before it was colored and inked and all of that. All in all a good find for us English speakers, who have no hopes of translating the more complete and probably more immersive texts about Akira Toriyama Sensei. The actual book itself, while my copy was slightly bent at top pages,(which I knew about before purchase) is very good quality made, scaling of pictures and specific adjoining images are grand and fit well, whoever did the layout did a good job. Honestly I was expecting wwaaaayyy more (Dragonball) volume 1-16 stuff, like all characters colored or not etc etc, but this is a good start to anyones Dragonball collection, moving past the 40 some volumes of the esteemed Dragonball/Dr. Slump creator Akira Toriyama!!
