Review: Surprisingly amazing, Toriyama is back at it again! - I want to preface this by saying I don't like Dragon Ball Super at all, it fails to capture what the original series did for me. I'm not sure why I decided to pick this up having said that but I'm glad I did. Toriyama knocks it out of the park with this one. The humor is on-point the entire time and I found myself laughing out loud at a few parts. The plot is simple but engaging enough to keep you reading by introducing new characters and uncovering more struggles for them to go through to help Jaco get home. If youre expecting action like you probably would from Dragon Ball you won't find it here, but that's definitely ok. Theres a very minor action scene, if you could even call it that it's that minor, in the middle of it but this story is solely focused on the humor, characters and the interactions between them. And if you still aren't sold because you like DBZ too much, they have included Goku's origin story as a bonus chapter at the end. A nice touch for the fans. Overall I very much enjoyed this spin-off from Toriyama. It's very reminiscent of the light-heartedness I adored in the original Dragon Ball series. And if youre like me where you also do not like Dragon Ball Super or don't like Jaco from that show, maybe give this a shot anyway because it might change your mind.
Review: A great pick for Dragon Ball fans! - Any fan of Dragon Ball and the work of Akira Toriyama will love this quick read. Taking place ten years before the events of the first chapter of Dragon Ball, this story follows Jaco, who is a Galactic Patrolman (Space Police). He's sent to Earth after the Galactic Police receive a warning that a Saiyan Pod is on its way to the planet. Jaco needs to find that pod and destroy the Saiyan within before it can exterminate life on Earth. However, Jaco's ship is damaged as he lands and he finds himself stranded on Earth with a hermit named Omori. Omori is a former scientist and discovers that Jaco's ship is missing its fuel supply, which is an extremely rare and expensive metal on Earth. Joined by Tights Briefs (Bulma's older sister) Jaco needs to find the Saiyan pod, recover his fuel supply and return home. This story contains exactly the kind of comedy and action you expect form Akira Toriyama and acts as a nice extension of the Dragon Ball series which adds some interesting characters. On top of that, the manga also includes a short story featuring Bardock and his wife Gine and takes place just before the destruction of Planet Vegeta. With not one but two stories, this manga has it all for Dragon Ball fans and is a must-read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another great story by Akira Toriyama!
*by P***D on July 30, 2015*

This book is a must read for any Dragon Ball fan! Full of action, adventure, and of course Akira's signature humor this book has so many things to love and not a lot to dislike. It is short, only around 200 pages, but it is a great Story all the same. I recommend this book to any Dragon Ball fan who wants to expand their knowledge of the Dragon Ball universe. It's also wonderful for new fans who want to begin reading Dragon Ball, as it ends off right where Dragon Ball begins!
