So I got this $75 gift certifrycate for Amazon and I didn't know what to do with it. I almost bought some legos but I realized I'd just lose them over time. I decided to get something that my future offspring could enjoy...so I got the entire box set for Dragonball. I really would have rather gotten the complete Calvin and Hobbes or Farside collections, but they were more like $150. I didn't have that kind of money. Man, when I was 8-15, I didn't know who the hell any of the X-men were besides Wolverine (cuz he was basically the main character), Storm (cuz she was black, kinda), and Beast (because he was nekkid). I knew Superman existed, but I still don't know who the author/artists are. The fact that I think Akira Toriyama and Ruroni Kenshin first when someone asks me about a classic comic book makes me wonder if I'm a terrorist. I hope I'm not a terrorist. I just wanted to share with my demon spawn what I enjoyed as a kid. Anyway, thats all. I'm happily reading my 3 pounds of comic books at work today. Just wanted to let y'all know.

I don't much know comic books of any culture but I certainly won't look down on someone who likes Ruroni Kenshin. The cartoon they made of that is, by far, one of my favorites of all time. Dragonball is also a guilty pleasure. What version did you buy? The original when he's a kid? I love the sound he makes when he runs on the Japanese track.

Yeah, I got the original Dragonball set. And as far as cartoons go, its probably the best English dubbed anime out there. I love the Turtle Hermit voice actor, he's hilarious. There's a lot more nudity than I remember...although I do remember in the english version they have this really poorly drawn swimsuit for Goku when he's actually naked...heh. Even as a kid, I was like "Whaaa, come on that was lame." If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe. - Carl Sagan My Backpack

And yeah, I loved Calvin and Hobbes. Also, I buy lots of games and play almost all of them - but not in $150 chunks. If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe. - Carl Sagan My Backpack

The Calvin and Hobbes Search Engine (Every Calvin and Hobbes comic ever printed via a tasty keyword/date searchable engine) My favorite of all time is this one. (though any of the snowmen related comics come in close second) Cheers, -G?!

I found a video of the voice actors for Dragon Ball Z recording their lines awhile ago. It consisted almost purely of screaming. Definitely the best part of Dragon Ball Z is the ridiculous voices, it is so over the top lol.  Quote:Razor: As hard as one might try no one will ever be able to pull one over on Super Penguin.

It's just painful trying to watch through all of it. I lose interest mid-way through the Buu series, so can't quite finish it. DBZ Evolution would help that if it's abridgedness went through all the sagas.
