But is he a custom character or could he be another "God of Destruction" from another universe? Others say that this new character is Son Gohan's son from a parrallel world hinting that alternate worlds exist in the Dragon Ball mythos.
Rumorhas it that Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama is planning a manga continuation of the series and it follows the story line set after the movie "Battle of Gods" which means that the DBZ multiverse would get explored.

According to reports from JapNation AniManga, The Dragon Ball Z manga continuation would follow after the end of Battle of Gods and it would explore the "Super Saiyan God" mythos as well as the roles of the "gods of destruction" as it was revealed in the movie that there are other universes with their own god of destruction.
The news site further adds that the manga continuation would go back to its roots as an "adventure" story similar to the original series compared to the DBZ manga that focused too much on the battles and the "bad guy of the week" format. The story is rumored to be Goku, under the training of Whis and Bills would travel the DBZ multiverse in order to learn more about the "Super Saiyan God" form and why it exists. Of course, it is also rumored that the "main bad guy" of the manga would be the most powerful god of destruction who also happens to be THE Super Saiyan God.
Could the mystery character be THE Super Saiyan God or could it be the recently revealed Super Saiyan 4 Broly for Dragon Ball heroes?
