About the author

Akira Toriyama (鳥山明) was a Japanese manga artist and character designer. He first achieved mainstream recognition for creating the popular manga series Dr. Slump, before going on to create Dragon Ball (his most famous work) and acting as a character designer for several popular video games such as the Dragon Quest series, Chrono Trigger, and Blue Dragon. Toriyama came to be regarded as one of the most important authors in the history of manga with his works highly influential and popular, particularly Dragon Ball, which many manga artists cite as a source of inspiration.
He earned the 1981 Shogakukan Manga Award for best shōnen/shōjo manga with Dr. Slump, and it went on to sell over 35 million copies in Japan. It was adapted into a successful anime series, with a second anime created in 1997, 13 years after the manga ended.
His next series, Dragon Ball, would become one of the most popular and successful manga in the world. Having sold 260 million copies worldwide, it is one of the best-selling manga series of all time and is considered a key work in increasing manga circulation to its peak in the mid-1980s and mid-1990s. Overseas, Dragon Ball's anime adaptations have been more successful than the manga and are credited with boosting anime's popularity in the Western world. In 2019, Toriyama was decorated a Chevalier of the French Ordre des Arts et des Lettres for his contributions to the arts.
In October 2024, Toriyama was inducted into the Harvey Awards Hall of Fame.

Reviews

Aquest volum està ple de caques! 🤣🤣

[Toni Ramírez]

Excel·lent, trapella, escatològic, i s'hi estrena el Dr. Mashirito!

[Caesare Borgia]

Dr Slump si riconferma un (quasi) capolavoro del manga e senza dubbio il vero gioiellino di Toriyama.
Senza alcuna pretesa, Dr Slump costruisce personaggi divertenti e tridimensionali.
In questo numero compare per la prima volta il diavoletto Chivil che rinfresca un po' il mitico duo Gacchan e Arale.

[Marc Barqué]

Brillante recopilación de Dr Slump con algunas de las mejores historietas del clásico de Toriyama: la presentación del dr Mashirito, la visita de Arale y sus amigos a la gran ciudad, el segundo capìtulo de Suprunamán, etc.

Divertidísimas historietas que nos meten de lleno en el mágico humor y el buen hacer del maestro Akira.

[Javier Iglesias]

Partida de caja absoluta.

[Sara]

Il più divertente!

[Noelia]

Un tomo bastante escatológico, lleno del juguete favorito de Arale y Gatxan: las cacas pinchadas en un palo. También es el debut del malvado Dr. Mashirito y de Chivil, un pequeño y simpático demonio que tiene bastante presencia.

[Dimitar Iliev]

Nunca decepcionan los mangas de esta saga. Tiene un humor absurdo y divertido, muy práctico para matar el tiempo y relajarse un rato.
