Author and artist Akira Toriyama burst on to the manga scene in the 1980s and is known for his colorful and playful storytelling. His first hit with fans was the manga Dr. Slump, created four years before he moved on to the Dragon Ball series. Dragon Ball ran in the weekly Japanese publication, Shueisha’s Shonen Jump magazine from 1984-1985. Soon after, Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z were published in the United States to introduce American audiences to the Dragon Ball saga. Some of Toriyama’s other manga works include Sand Land, Cowa!, Kajika and Neko Majin.
