The continued adventures of the most intelligent boy on Earth, misanthrope though he be. These stories have the super-intelligent gorilla-god Bezeruul, taken captive in hus own dimension, attempting to bring Barry to his world to rescue him, and inadvertently bringing Sara instead. Barry and Jeremy go storming to the rescue, only to find that ten years have passed in Bezeruul's dimension, and Sara is now 20, and a Xena warrior type. What follows tests Barry's abilities to deal with loss and tragedy, and the final two pages are a revelation into the psyche of a fascinating character who may have some little hope of humanity after all. Oh, and still wickedly funny in a "South Park" - "Dexter's Laboratory" sense. ( )
