This is part of my Eisner reading list and it’s actually quite cute and charming. It could be a cartoon on tv. A young precocious, ostracized, because she’s a “nerd”, girl ends up trying to get to the bottom of supposed sightings of a yeti in the male locker room. There’s lots of silly gags and personality quirks assigned to all the kids. It almost feels like watching an episode of The Simpsons, except it’s clearly mostly aimed at children and much less cerebral regarding themes.
