A new piece of fanart merges Dragon Ball’s Gokuand DC Comics’ Superman, but unfortunately, it depicts Goku wearing Superman’s worst costume. There are many similarities between Goku and Superman, both being from another planet who travel to Earth as an infant while their homeworld faces utter annihilation. This piece of fanart shows Goku returning home from a fight against a villain who rocked him to his core and pushed the limits of what he believed was possible inside of himself, just like Superman when he originally wore the featured, infamous costume.
During Goku’s battle with Frieza in Dragon Ball Z“Frieza Saga” by Akira Toriyama, Goku unlocks the power of Super Saiyan for the first time. This fight was redefining for Goku as he unlocked a deeper power within himself while fighting a villain who was more powerful than anything he had previously faced. Goku’s fight with Frieza is similar to Superman’s fight against the unstoppable monster, Doomsday. Doomsday was able to do the impossible when fighting Superman, he was able to kill the Kryptonian hero. However, Superman didn’t stay dead as he realized that he was so powerful he could survive on the lowest of heart rates while his body healed itself. Just as Goku unlocked the power of Super Saiyan, Superman found out he was much stronger than he realized and became an even stronger hero once he was fully recovered.
