Good Gravy! It’s a mystery ripped right from the comics of Gothic Horror Cartoonist Edgar Allan Poe. When Eddie Poe and the rest of the Poe-nuts gang travel to the streets of Paris on a school field trip, they run afoul of a Heinous Head-shaving Hooligan. It’s up to brilliant Inspector C. August Dupin to solve the crime, and stop the Dastardly Depilator stalking the Rue Morgue before it’s too late.  And a jealous Eddie Poe does his lunk-headed best to “help.”
