by Akira Toriyama

Book Overview

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.

Goku is dead--but his journey is just beginning. Now he must travel through the afterlife along the million-kilometer Serpent Road to find Kai -sama, the Lord of Worlds, who will teach him martial arts techniques so powerful they're reserved for the gods And he'd better hurry, too, because Earth has only nine months until the evil Saiyans, Vegeta and Nappa, will arive to wipe the planet clean of life. While the archdemon Piccolo trains Goku's son Gohan to reach his full power potential, the alien spaceships rocket ever closer...bearing a power so awesome that even Earth's six strongest heroes may not be a match for it

Great Deal!

Not much to say other than it's a great buy. If you buy in a bookstore you're probably stuck paying retail. As far as content my son loves anything to do with Dragon Ball Z.

Awsome!

This Book Is Awsome. Its so Easy to read AndI think u should buy it Its just like the show! If u read #1 its the Series. And theres Some parts Are NOt for kids... I Say not to let anybody under 10 read it.

this is a masterpeice

The Dragon Ball Z manga is a piece of art and should be in every collector's hands. This DBZ #2 is actually Dragon Ball #18 of 42, but this part of the story is fine to begin with; backstory is not a problem if you have read DBZ Vol. 1, and since DBZ is a different stage of the lives of the characters. It is 190 pages of fun and wonder. Besides, for only (...) why would anyone pass up this opportunity? I guarantee this story will have you hooked. (...)

Dragon Ball Z Vol.2

This is the best DBZ yet (although, DB is better than DBZ)!!!! The Saiyans are coming to Earth and everyone is training! You get to see some fighting too. I reccomend buying it!!!!!!!!!

Let's take a break...

A much more placid chapter in the DB Saga, this mostly involves Earth's Special Forces training for the impending battle with two Sayajins coming to Earth in one year, tipped off by Raditz right before he died...Translation, art, everything's pretty muuch the same. Not as enjoyable as the first, but still fun and interesting. However, there IS a battle at the end of the book, which ends in a nice cliff-hanger, and the death of one of our heros...And, yes, just to remind you, as everyone says, the manga is way better than the show, at least in America.
