See, I'm not going to argue anymore with you. I feel what I said so far pretty much sums up what Dragonball is. Some wacky cartoon that isn't in the same league as the Superman series. I could sketch up some cheapo Dragonball episode today, introducing even more wacky over the top powers for these Dragonball characters. Superman has had his powers shaped and crafted (and explained in explicit detail) over many years.
How DARE you try and cheapen the Superman legacy with sleezy comparisons to a stupid cheap-áss cartoon? How DARE you all! Next week there'll be some other cheap-ass american cartoon with characters with even more absurd capabilities that make even Goku look crap.
Everything you said there is just your personal opinion with no argumentation. I wont argue with your personal opinion, its pointless.
personally I loved DBZ (to death) when I was younger, and I still like it today. Superman is also a part of my childhood, so they are both special to me but this isn't a thread about who is more nostalgic, or who deserves more respect, this is a thread on who would win Goku or Clark.
And DBZ isn't a "sleazy cartoon" at all, its one of the most popular (if not the most popular) Manga's (comic book) and TV series in Japan. So you need to think about it from that point, DBZ is a legend of Japanese comics too. Sure is not near the world wide legacy that is "Supeman" (nothing is). But its not something that is near "sleazy", its a major part of Japanese comics. So stop trying to degrade it to something that its not. Simply because you don't like it doesn't mean anything at all.
