Tyler and Herobear embark on their most important mission yet in Saving Time: Part Deux , traveling to a magical moment in the past where the fate of Christmas—and time itself—hangs in the balance. Perfect for fans of Herobear and the Kid , Superman for All Seasons , Calvin and Hobbes, and Back to the Future ! Our tale resumes with a journey to a fabled location and time, as Tyler has uncovered a startling truth—Henry is not just a loyal butler to the family as the ever-present protector of the Claus lineage and destiny. . . He is Father Time. . . the ancient guardian of history and memories. Now trapped in his vulnerable Baby New Year form, Henry has been kidnapped by the vengeful Von Klon, who has journeyed back through time to capture Tyler’s mythic grandfather, seize the North Pole and rewrite history so that he is never banished. Chasing Von Klon into a Christmas Eve long ago, Tyler, Herobear, and Elmo infiltrate the legendary factory, joining forces with elves, toy soldiers, and Herbert the Humbug to stop the villain’s mechanical army. As they battle to protect the Holiday heritage, rescue Tyler’s family, and protect the very flow of time, Tyler draws closer to understanding the true origin and purpose of Herobear. And the stakes could not be higher—for if they fail, the past will be rewritten and Herobear may disappear from existence. . .forever.
