Not exactly a rip-off, but more of copied qualities.

They are both extrodinary in thier own way. However which was around first? Besides Supes Would own Goku, provided he was fighting a namek leveled Goku, other wise Goku would kill him in a second. The question is which one is more of a boy scout? Supes or Goku?

No to a rip off.

The alien from a doomed planet part is a homage. But thats an added thing, not what the core character is all about.

If every small part of what a character is starts to be considered a rip off, then SM ripped off ALOT of parts here and there.

Goku is ABSOLUTELY a rip off of superman. The creator of DB/DBZ has said EXACTLY that in an interview.

An alien from a far away planet gets sent to earth as a child an barely escapes said planets destruction that then grows up on earth an orphan an becomes super strong and a savior. Then 3 super villains(raditz, vegeta, and napa) from said planet that happend to survive their planets destruction travel to earth to confront him? THAT WAS SUPERMAN 2 the movie's plot, HFS!

Link to that quote then, please.

Thats not what the core character is all about. Thats an added thing. Like Superman later flying, being able to time travel and having a bald mad scientist trying to kill him. They are all originals to Captain Marvel. Does that make SM a rip off too?

I dont belive for a second that the creator said his character is a rip off when it was taken from a old chinese legend that everyone in China grows up with. Thats what the character IS. A moderm Monkey King Goku and his companions.

If an adition to an already estabelized character, is to be consider a ripoff then SM ripped off blatantly CM. -Blantantly-
