Anime culture is fully part of pop culture as many titles of Japanese and American origins have inspired each other. Anyway, the first shipment of Dragon Ball Z has returned to the world of cinema in some very important years, which can also be seen in the numerous quotes from the television series.

One of them is particularly associated with a historical work by DC Comics, the Batman movie directed by Tim Burton and dates from 1989.

The success of the Warner bros., which brought home the hype of the critics and huge box office revenues, has also been a triumph of merchandising since the Batmobile it was very popular all over the world. And this engineering jewel was honored in 26th episode of Dragon Ball Z, published among others in November 1989 where it appears for a moment in a frame, the same one you can find at the bottom of the news.
