Book Review: Back to the Future: Continuum Conundrum

Back to the Future: Continuum Conundrum by Bob Gale

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This second volume in the Back to the Future comic series represents a complete story, unlike the previous volume, which was an anthology series.

Its March, 1986 and Marty is missing Doc Brown and all the adventures they had, when they stumble into Doc at his old lab, but find that its Doc. However, its Doc before he built the train at the end of Back to the Future III, but after he'd married Clara Brown.

It's a nice time travel plot that takes us to a new year, introduces some new technology, and generally recaptures the feel of the movies. No, it's not essential, and the emotional stakes aren't at near the same level as the movie, and it's open to how well the art captures the characters. Nevertheless, this is a good time and worth a read for fans of the series. A big improvement on the first volume.
