Things are looking up for Ned Banks. His best friend, Ernie, is on his way to visit for a whole week! But then Ned gets an urgent call from the Time Surfers and he has to travel into deep space with Roop and Suzi to check out Centaur One-an abandoned space station. When they arrive, they find Vorg-the biggest villian of the century-waiting for them, along with the evil Klenn from Ned's comic books! But if the bad guys come to life, Ned wonders if the good guy-the hero, Zontar-can too? Otherwise the Time Surfers might be trapped forever!
