![]() ![]() This chapter gives us a good look into Biff’s home life, and the grandmother that raised him. Not a great deal happens, other than a raptor stealing the book and getting promptly hit over the head with a cane by Biff, but it’s a silly little excursion that adds a little extra spice to proceedings.įrom here we jump to 1955, where we get to see Biff discovering that the book actually works, and making his first win using it. The shortest chapter in the book, it’s also one of the wackiest, as we discover that old Biff accidentally traveled back to the Jurassic Period before getting the DeLorean back to 1955. The first chapter actually follows the old Biff from the future, the one who traveled back in time to give his younger self the almanac. This structure allows the writer to skip across decades to focus on the important points in Biff’s story, to showcase the highlights that are the most important. ![]() The book is split into several chapters, each one exploring a different aspect of Biff’s history, of his development into the monster that we saw in the film. Thanks to being co-written by Bob Gale, the co-creator and co-writer of the Back To The Future films, this doesn’t feel like some writers version of events, but the actual true events of that timeline from the series creator.

But I still recommend it.Īnyone familiar with Back To The Future will remember the alternate timeline from the second movie, the one where Biff Tannen has been given a sports almanac from the future and has built a business and gambling empire. I don’t know, I’ve always assumed that reality disappeared. I guess this could’ve happened after the Real Marty left, and that this is the ending of that timeline, but I doubt it (in the movie all was coming back to normal, the newspaper fading and changing). I thought I was seeing the movie’s alternate timeline, so I was extremely surprised that it didn’t feature the interaction with the real Marty and the movie’s resolution. Doc sends Biff to 1884, Mad Dog tanner shot him, then all the minions died electrocuted because of the time machine’s fail-safe. The reason I didn’t give it a higher rating was because of the ending, I didn’t like it. I loved the use of a refrigerator as a time machine, that was one of the original ideas for the one in the movie. ![]() I enjoyed it a lot, we get to see how crooked and evil alternate Biff was. We see the alternate 1985 where Trump Biff owns Hill Valley.
