I have little info on it or if it's been discussed here before but I have come with exciting news.
Rich Johnston reports this morning that manga creator Akira Toriyama is going to write some new chapters of Dragon Ball (also known as Dragon Ball Z in the United States). Dragon Ball originally ran from 1984 to 1995 in Japan, and Viz Media published it in the U.S. Johnston states the obvious: "Something that will make this event even more spectacular is a simultaneous fully translated worldwide launch of the new book."
I don't know if the links safe or how it relates to Viz so I'll wait.
I discussed it in AIM so I've calmed otherwise this would probably in all caps right now.

Wow, this is astonishing news. I never expected Toriyama to come back to it. Hopefully he doesn't ruin a legacy, which I'm sure he won't.

Obvious troll is obvious.
Why the hell would Toriyama go back to a finished manga? -_-

I heard about this a couple days back.
No sources?
Plus, Toriyama practically hates DragonBall.
Here are some other people talking about it. (http://daizex.fanboyreview.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=14937)
As much as I would cry over it, this is probably lie. 's too bad, cuz I was almost in tears when I read it. No sources in it, nothing from Japanese blogs, and no announcement other than this random website saying this. This rumor also happens every couple years.
Guys, forget it. Even if it turns out to be true, I wouldn't get your hopes high.

Why does he hate his own manga?
MysticGoten

Not, "Hate" but not interested.
A) He was basically forced to go through most of Z.
B) His kids do hate it.
C) Fighting just ain't his style. He likes his gag manga.
D) He's forgotten most of the series.
Despite all the recent interviews and DBO, he's still not very into the series.

No.I was just very bored.Plus it annoys people.

You're really gullible, believing a rumor without any legit source.
Ever heard of Anime News Network?

And I do have sources, you probably didn't read the OP. Damn, calm down, calling me a troll.

No, that website, Bleeding Cool, has no sources.
Bleeding Cool was the original site it was posted on.
Nothin'.

Bleeding Cool? http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff286/nfforums/43h7r5d.gif
No, no, it wasn't that, I have sources.

Yes, it was Bleeding Cool who first reported on it on Sunday or Saturday.
Here. (http://www.bleedingcool.com/2010/10/25/the-return-of-dragon-ball/)
And, it's an anime-based picture, so its legal, btw.
Oh, and here's what the biggest and best DragonBall site has to say about it:

Dude that wasn't the first site that revealed it >_<
All the sites I know of though are pretty trusted so there's no reason not to believe it. But you people are completely ignoring the fact I never said it was true myself -_-
And I dunno what their opinions matter, alright some are so psyched, some are bashing DB, some don't want it, some don't believe it, some do, okay?

Some a bashing DB?
Yes, it was the first site. What other ones? PM me the link.

Really? Where?
MysticGoten

Oddly enough, I haven't. Please explain.
The plot will probably be something DBO related, just humorous like the Jump Special, or Satan and Boo stuff.

Considering that Toriyama's new comic just appeared in Jump this week, yeah...I kind doubt this is happening.
