 | Vision of Rage by David Nesten

 | Dragon Ball Z - Season One (Vegeta Saga)
Buy new: $28.99 / Used from: $18.41 Vision of Rage originated from me watching Dragonball Z when I was a pre-teen and thinking about all the ways it could've been better. This isn't a great show, but if you like it at all, I think you'll find plenty to love in Vision of Rage.

 | Cowboy Bebop - The Perfect Sessions (Limited Edition Complete Series Boxed Set)
Buy used from: $54.79 The idea of centering Vision of Rage on bounty hunters comes from this show and my love of it. The fast, exciting chase scenes were also an important influence. This is a terrific, beautiful anime with a deep subtext.

 | Pulp Fiction (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $6.91 This movie was so funny--and thrilling beyond belief--that it changed how I looked at violence and the world. In Vision of Rage, I tried to get across that violence is destructive, and tell it in a unique way that was all my own, inspired by movies like this one.

 | The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 My interest in science fiction and comedy existed way before I read this excellent book, but I didn't realize that books could be funny until I read this. I highly recommend this for everyone.
