I don't recall seeing a full color variation of this fight. Is it fan-made or what?

Most likely a fan color it. Viz hasn't release any full color chapter for Super.

Yeah, definitely looks like a manga, so the manga probably. I thought maybe it could have been one of those animangas, but then they are straight screen-shots and aren't usually coloured this way.

Yeah, I found it.

I might try my hand at coloring some Mangu myself. :donovan

I think Toyable is probably the best at doing Toriyama's style.

YoungJiji and Dragon Garow Lee do better at capturing AT's style imo

I am not familiar. Can you point me in the direction of their work(s)?

Garow Lee is superb when it comes to Part 1, but his Z stuff looks just a little off. I think Toyable and the Multiverse guys do it better.

I'll search around for that other guy.

Nah, Lee's style is still good for Part 2, plus the Saiyan arc was a time when the art style was very close to the one in the Piccolo Jr. saga in Dragon Ball anyway.

These look a lot closer to AT's original manga from a camera angle and detail standpoint than most of Toyotaro's art until chapter 25 or so, too.

I don't know. I seem to notice Lee's impurities more than Toyable, but perhaps that's because Lee is directly recreating material from the manga, whereas Toyable is drawing his own stuff.

Both are great artists no doubt, but they make you appreciate Toriyama. He can't 100% be copied.

Dragon Garrow Lee is the guy that did the Yamcha spin off manga and you should be able to find YoungJiji's work on twitter.

Raditz and Gohan do look great, Vegeta doesn't.

I'm still not used to seeing Toyo's fighting artwork which Toriyama told him to work more harder.

I always felt that the Dragon Ball AF Manga that Toyable did before Super looked like it was traced (and edited where appropriate) to be honest. I felt like I've seen every single pose and panel before. Obviously the hairstyles and clothing were changed, but I always felt like it all looked very familiar. Could have just been me.

I think a fan did color it because there was no color version of the Super manga that was released. I questioned it before, seeing as how they made a big deal about doing Dragon Ball (all 42 volumes) in color, so to me, it's like well why not do Super with color from the jump? Apparently, the manga is just supplemental glorified promotional material for the anime (it's been explained to me that that's how the manga is viewed in Japan). I find it bizarre, but whatever. Maybe in 20 years, we'll get a colored Super manga.

Although since we got onto the topic, does anyone know why Yamcha doesn't have scars in his special? He got those in Dragon Ball, so the events of Z would not affect them.

Yamcha lacks his scar because he was controlled by the spirit of a reader who knows the entire DB manga, so he ended up making Yamcha train with Roshi earlier, climb up the Karinto and drink the god water, and other such things Goku did to make himself stronger. Presumably whoever would've injured him in DB wouldn't have been able to in this timeline.

Who told you that? Said person probably has never even been to Japan and just making shit up to hate on the far superior manga.
