Inhaltsangabe

Brothers from different mothers, bromancing history to save us from Trump. 

These are the continuing adventures of Barack Obama and Joe Biden, time traveling superheroes in search of a brighter future for America. 

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—driven to find each other and change history for the better. Their faithful guide on this journey is Samuel L. Jackson, a brilliant actor 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 through time, striving to right injustice wherever they find it, looking for a world which they can proudly call home.

A visual feast that’s both graphic and novel, this book is a love letter to cheesy science fiction and the two men who can still be counted on to inspire us.  Featuring comics produced by Titmouse Inc (Big Mouth, The Venture Bros.), it’s 224 pages of adventure that will melt your snowflake brain and give you hope for humanity at the same time.

DON’T GET MAD; SEND OBAMA AND BIDEN BACK IN TIME TO GET EVEN

TRIGGER WARNING: This book is for adults. And adult children. Not actual children.

The Adventures of Barry & Joe is a gorgeous graphic and textual stew born from the fabric of our current, often confusing, existence. It also tells the entirely true* story of Barack Obama and Joe Biden as time warriors sent hurtling through space and history to fight for the present and future of the country we love, also known as the United States of America.

What started as a crazy idea the day after the 2016 election has now become the glorious object you hold in your hands, a talisman of what can happen when science, creativity, crazy comic-book-level antics, eighties sitcom vibes, and some serious bromance mix. The Adventures of Barry & Joe is a celebration of the friendship of Barack Obama and Joe Biden, the strength of their political minds, the lengths to which they would go to save us if called upon, and how Samuel L. Mother Fucking Jackson is the only guide they could ever need to keep our country safe from zombies, bigots, and other monsters. Complete with comic books by top-tier artists, a gorgeous bromantic portrait gallery, and even a play, The Adventures of Barry & Joe will fill you with a swell of hope for a world after . . . well, you know.

This book, like the multiverse and all of us in it, is a beautiful mess. Those looking for actual history, science, politics, or other matters of factuality should look elsewhere. Those looking for a reminder of what it was like to have true leaders and some fun, rejoice. Welcome to the world of Barry and Joe.
