lol the latter was actually a dub line. Most comedic animes have it I think:

Roshi did something similar in the 21st Budokai, I guess:

I wouldn't say that's breaking the 4th wall, considering it was a simile rather than a blatant reference. The only instance outside of dub lines DB had in breaking the 4th wall iirc was in Volume 2 when Pilaf criticises Mai for trying to make it a gag manga like Dr. Slump.

This isn't breaking the fourth wall at all. Breaking the 4th wall is when a character knows that he is a in a show\comic book, while Kami-sennin just said that Nam's gaze was so poweful that it was straight out a comic book.

But there is this actual fourth wall break in the very end of Piccolo Jr. Arc where Kamisennin says to the reader: "No, this is not the end. There is a little bit more"
