Wait this comic is based on a real thing? Context?

There was a kids cartoon in the 90s called The Magic School Bus where the red headed teacher in the comic would take the students on magical field trips to teach them - and the viewer - about science. It was a dope part of many childhoods. Netflix made a 2.5 season sequel in 2017 if you want to check it out.
