Dub & Peter 1 (ダブとピーター1 Dabu to Pītā 1) is a four-chapter manga by Akira Toriyama. The first chapter was published in November 1992 in V-Jump, and the last chapter was released in April 1993. The four chapters are also featured in Akira Toriyama's Manga Theater Vol. 3.

Story[]

The story is set in Pepper Town, where two guys named Dub and Peter go to a junkyard to create a really fast car to pick up girls. When completed by Peter, the car was named "Peter 1" with Dub as its driver. The car is controlled by a computer and has its own personality and can talk to Dub.

While taking the car on a drive, Dub meets a girl named Elizabeth about to be kidnapped by two thugs, Lord Asatias and Rock. Dub gets out of the car and starts fighting them. After knocking out Rock, Asatias pulls a gun on him, but Peter 1 saves Dub when it brings out a small cannon that shot a ball at Asatias' hand, knocking his gun. When Asatias sees that Dub has a nice car, he challenges Dub to a race, promising to give him 1 million Zeni and to return the girl.

They go race on the outskirts of town through a canyon. The race goes aerial when both vehicles change to their flying mode. As the thugs begin to shoot Dub with their vehicle, Peter 1 pulls out a missile launcher from under the hood and destroys their vehicle, making Dub the winner.

After Dub wins the 1 million Zeni, he rushes over to Elizabeth, only to find out that she already has a child and a very muscular husband. The story ends with Dub deciding to give the 1 million Zeni to his friend Peter, but then asks for him to make a robot girl that resembles the real world actress Hikaru Nishida (西田 ひかる).

Relation to Dragon Ball[]

Dub & Peter 1 features several elements also included in the Dragon Ball series. The currency used in both stories is Zeni, and a city called Pepper Town appears in Dragon Ball Z: The History of Trunks. Additionally, Rock, appears in filler in the Dragon Ball Z anime as a member of the Red Shark Gang.

Dub and Peter make a cameo in the first chapter of the spin-off manga Dragon Ball Heroes: Victory Mission.
