The Carcosa Interview: Mark Norman of JUSTSAIYAN!

For all you Dragonball Z fans, I have a question for you. Have you ever thought to yourself, “Wow, I wish I could dress like Goku”? “I want the same armor as Vegeta”? “Why can’t I be perfect like Cell?” Ladies have you ever thought, “Android 18 is not the only one who can rock that top”? If you’ve ever asked yourself any of these questions, I have the answer for you!

Chief Saiyan Mark Norman, the owner of JustSaiyan, created a wonderful opportunity for us all to dress up and feel like our favorite DBZ characters. I asked him a few questions about this project and here’s what he had to say!

Black Nerd Problems: First off, what is your name and your position at JustSaiyan? Mark: My name is Mark Norman :), and my position is owner or Chief Saiyan so to speak 🙂 BNP: Is this a solo project or do you have a team? Mark: This originally started out as a 2 man team, and we are to this day still a solid 2 man team, but I do work with great talented people all over the world to keep JustSaiyan going. People in France, Spain, Mexico and even the USA and Canada 🙂

BNP: How did you come up with JustSaiyan? Mark: Did I intentionally set out to create JustSaiyan? No, no I didn’t – I simply wanted the DBZ shirt that I have always wanted, but could never find – for my 26th Birthday. It just kind of happened. I only wanted these for myself and Javier and I came up with the first designs for the shirts. I got told I should put them on Reddit to see what people thought – and it really blew up…
