These are the continuing adventures of Barack Obama and Joe Biden, time traveling superheroes on an epic journey to turn the tide of history, bromancing spacetime together in search of a brighter future for America.
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
Moments after the inauguration of our 45th president, best friends Barack Obama and Joe Biden were escorted to a secret lab run by the world's greatest scientists. They were asked to take off all their clothes and hold very still in a fetal position until they felt a painful tingling sensation. Then they vanished. They would awake to find themselves apart, and inside their younger bodies and driven to find each other, and to change history for the better. Their only guide on this journey is Neil deGrasse Tyson, a scientist from the present who appears in the form of an augmented reality that only they can see and hear. And thus they find themselves leaping throughout their own lifetime, looking for the best in people...striving to right injustice wherever they find it, forever hoping that their next jump in time will take them to a future that's not scary and broken on a quest for a world which they can proudly call...home.
The brainchild of director Adam Reid, born out of his deep frustration after the 2016 election and launched via Kickstarter, The Adventures of Barry & Joe is a nostalgia hued science fiction tale celebrating the greatest bromance in modern history, that of President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden.
A visual feast that's part comic book and all heart, this book is a love letter to brilliantly cheesy sci-fi and the two men who can still be counted on to inspire us. It's unhinged political fan fiction filled with hope and a dose of healing and perspective for all of us watching in horror as Trump leads our country down it's darkest timeline.
