Dragon Blog Z #18: What If Gohan Became Great Saiyaman Early?

Hello, Ticketholders and Redditors!
Before we begin, please remember to like and comment down below, Become A Ticketholder, and follow me on Tumblr, Reddit, and Facebook for the latest news on my content.

And it is actually my content this time; not a response to someone else's Dragon Ball What If? on the MasakoX subreddit. Though I was inspired to come up with the concept for today's showcase while listening to MasakoX's "What If the Ginyu Force Turned Good?" story on YouTube.
There isn't a ton of detail to what I came up with, but I'd like to see Masako do something with it, and maybe flesh out my own concept in the future. Also, shoutout to Devonsterling123456 for being my only commenter on the topic, who agreed that it would be a fun idea to explore.

As I do with these Reddit showcase posts, here is the content of my original submission:
I'm watching the Ginyu Force What If, and thought about there not being a Great Saiyaman in the future timeline. So if Gohan had been more into fighting after Namek, he'd start his double life early, getting a costume from Bulma so he could study and sneak out of the house to fight crime, with Trunks becoming his sidekick later on. The future happens much the same as in the History of Trunks special, but Trunks dies, leaving a dark, broody Saiyaman to travel back in time and warn everyone. The costume adds a layer of identity protection and comedy, and plenty of opportunities for comic book references. Plus something impactful for Piccolo to do.

 I imagine Piccolo would have also died in the Future timeline, inspiring Gohan to model his Great Saiyaman costume as I recolored it for the banner above, and he'd adopt a deeper, Batman-esque voice, as opposed to the cheesy, Golden Age hero voice he used in the original.

That's all I have for you this time, so we aren't too far from the top where I remind you to do all those social media actions that I haven't seen you do yet.

Seriously, Become A Ticketholder already! If you have to copy your comments from social media onto Blogger, please do so! The last five weeks of this column have been me doing exactly that; it's not that hard. In fact, it's

It's not like it's one of those Touch Of A Button situations....

Illustrious,
Owl.

Stay Tuned #55: Goosebumps (Disney+ Season One)

Image
Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. the Ticketmaster I'm confused, Ticketholders. And disappointed in the lack of originality in visual media over the past few years. On top of the Fear Street trilogy and the TV series I'm reviewing today, I've also been watching the first season of Yellowjackets on Netflix because Paramount+ (like a broken floor scrubber) has a lot of buffering issues. All three are either set in or flash back to the 90s, and include a lot of the same songs and relationship dynamics (troubled same-sex couple, love triangle, toxic relationship, etc.). So the plot points and characters start to bleed together (heh; horror puns...) after awhile. But that doesn't make them bad products on their own merits. By my own actions, my merits (viewer analytics) have diminished significantly this month, so please remember to  Become A Ticketholder  if you haven't already, comment your thoughts on the Goosebumps reboot at the bottom of this post, help out my

One Piece Multi-Piece #7: Impel Down

Article by Sean Wilkinson, a.k.a. Master Of Tickets Before we set sail for this short issue of the One Piece  Multi-Piece , please chart a course by remembering to  Become A Ticketholder  if you haven't already, commenting at the bottom of this post, helping out my ad revenue as you read, and joining my Crew on  Tumblr ,  Reddit ,  Facebook , and  LinkedIn  to like what you see and receive the latest snail transmissions of news on my content. I rarely post anything on YouTube, but I'm a frequent commenter and content supporter, and I recently commented on one of Doug Walker's videos as follows: It's not just you, Doug; Buggy the Clown didn't land for me in the anime at first. But he is AMAZING in the Impel Down arc (not going to spoil it, but the basic idea is the "Lock Up" episode of BTAS in Dante’s Inferno with One Piece characters, done as a full season). And that's pretty accurate. With no crew to help him fight, find his way, feed him, or fix
