1st Place & Alternate Illustration
1st Place: Volume 19
Alternate Illustration of the 1st-Place Cover
Volume 19's cover took first place in the poll and features three generations of Goku's family: Bardock, Goku, and Gohan!
To celebrate this cover claiming first place, an alternate version was created depicting Vegeta's family!
Trunks is depicted in his SUPER HERO arc outfit, while Bulma is depicted in her Galactic Patrol Prisoner arc outfit. Note that both of these outfits were designed by Toyotarou himself.
You can even see the level of detail that went into depicting King Vegeta and his family reflected on the water's surface. This marks the first time Toyotarou has ever drawn Vegeta's younger brother, Tarble, as well as the mysterious figure obscured by the King's cape. In contrast to Vegeta who's carrying Bulla on his shoulder with a fatherly smile, King Vegeta's grabbing Tarble by the scruff of his neck!
