In the previous comic the girls follow KJ to the past and wind up in prehistoric times where they have a run in with a native woman and KJ and Mac get separated from the others. KJ and Mac follow the streak across the sky which they believe to be a time machine and find the first time traveler, Dr. Qanta Braunstein whom they rescue from the native woman's child's three fathers. The girls and the doctor decide to risk altering the future and help the native woman to keep her child by attacking the three men. The doctor doesn't make it but leaves her time machine for the girls to use. They get in with Tiffany on the outside and head out and wind up on December 31, 1999.
A cop is hassling Tiffany about being out so late at her age and wants to take her home. Tiffany sees two ginormous robots fighting each other but the cop doesn't see them. One of the robots crushes the cop car and Tiffany must flee. She heads for home where she runs into her future self's husband. Her future self is out buying something and her parents are out of town. She explains to Chris who she is and what is going on. He agrees to help her but he wants to go out and find the older Tiffany first.
Meanwhile, the other girls landed in the mall and realize that one-way time travelers had of communicating with each other was the comic strips, especially Chuck Spachefski's. So they go to his house and find that he is really Charlotte and she knows that they are time travelers and that there is a war going on something a time traveler from the future told her about. One group believes in time travel and one doesn't. Both are from different time periods. Then Charlotte decides they know too much and need to go. So they hightail it out of there and go in search of Tiffany all the while the robots are still fighting and only Tiffany can see them.
This comic takes the series in a new direction by explaining about the war between the two time periods. Now the girls are beginning to realize who is after them sometimes. But all they want is all they've ever wanted which is to go back to their own timeline. This is a great book from a series that just keeps getting better and better. I give it a five out of five stars.
