This drawing is generally attributed to Akira Toriyama or someone at Toei Animation, though it was drawn by neither. Its actual provenance is unknown, though it is believed by many to have come from a Japanese (or possibly Italian) dōjinshi comic. No known web site has reliable information on the image's origin (as it is a work by an unknown fan who has not come forward to claim it), thus the copyright information below is the best that can be managed.

- the periodical comic book series of which this issue is a part; or

[edit] A Note from the Illustrator:
I believe it is time for me to come foreward, in a sense. I won't be giving out my name, as I'm not entirely sure my translator is typing this the way I want him to. I'm currently only twenty years old. I am from Russia. I am not of the Russian heritage, though. I am Italian in heritage, and my family speaks Italian. My translator, Robert Szanyl, is bilingual and has agreed to have his name here, for he is soon moving from Russia to America.
I drew this picture. I did not intend for it to cause such a stir. I apologize.
The AF is my initials. I thought it looked nice.
