Monsters Are A Girl's Best Friend

It's hard to make new friends when you've moved to a new city, and 9-year-old Abigail thinks she won't ever make a friend. Then, one day, she meets someone very big, very tall, and very furry — a Yeti! — and he becomes her bestest friend ever. But, there are scientists and soldiers after her new friend, and she'll have to get him to safety in the new Abigail and the Snowman TP (JUL161358) from Roger Langridge (The Muppet Show) and BOOM! Studios.

In this new book from BOOM! Studios all-ages imprint, KaBOOM!, Claude, the Yeti, is what holds Abigail together. A young girl constantly on the move because of her father’s ever-changing jobs makes friendships go away before they had a chance to begin. An only child, Abigail’s life circumstances aren’t ideal. So imagine the comfort and warmth one can experience when a big furry beast comes into your life because he’s on the run from the secretive Ministry of Unusual Phenomena. And this isn’t any normal beastie by any means. Claude is an intelligent, articulate, and sharp-dressed Yeti who sports a tweed jacket and pipe. To say the government want him back is an understatement. Wouldn’t you want a well-spoken monster, too?

Abigail and the Snowman TP (JUL161358) from BOOM! Studios/KaBOOM! is in comic shops October 26.
