Fifteen-year-old Jeremy Duncan is the heart and soul of puberty. A
typical teen, Jeremy is shy, self-absorbed, and bored. He loves
hanging out and playing the guitar. He lives in the shadow of his
older brother's perfect 4.0 grade-point-average, athletic talents,
and flawless complexion. Jeremy's girlfriend, Sara, loves that she
can get him to do anything for her. His best friends are Hector and
Pierce, whom he's known for-almost-ever. His parents? Uncool baby
boomers. (Unless you're a parent, then they are two suburban
professionals just trying to do the best they can with a teenager
going through that ""awkward"" phase.) The enormously popular comic
strip Zits depicts teenage and parental angst like no other.
Teenage Tales is a cornucopia of Zits for die-hard fans everywhere.
Zits can be seen in more than 1,100 newspapers, which is almost
unheard of-only 18 other comic strips have achieved that
extraordinary milestone. Zits has also won the National Cartoonists
Society's Best Comic Strip of the Year award for two years in a

"" Zits]" is one of the most visually innovative comic strips to
come along in years. Borgman's graphic pyrotechnics are the perfect
complement to Scott's carefully designed layouts."a "Brian Walker,
"The Comics Since 1945"
The world is full of issues but none so pressing as those faced by
a teenager. For proof, look no further than "Zits, " the timely
teenage-focused strip that now appears in more than 1,100
newspapers worldwide.A This two-time recipient of the National
Cartoonists Society's Award for Best Newspaper Comic Strip follows
the life of 15-year-old Jeremy Duncan, a kid bursting with
questions, concerns, hormones, and insecurities. Cast adrift
between the worlds of peer and parent, Jeremy survives by clinging
to his sense of humor . . . the universal flotation device of the
teenage years.
Creators Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman pull all of this eating,
dating, driving, and parental angst and energy together in "Road
Trip Zits Sketchbook #7." This hilarious collection contains the
very popular series of strips that follows Jeremy and his best
amigo, Hector, as they actually (okay, and accidentally) get to
test-drive their van. Yes, "that" van on the cover.
If you thought being 15 was rough, trying being Jeremy Duncan. His
teenage trials and tribulations are on display in this collection
of the phenomenally successful strip, "Are We an "Us"?: Zits
Sketchbook 4."
The honesty and humor of "Zits" appeals to anyone who has ever
been 15 or is currently experiencing the challenges of raising a
teenager. Together with his friends and family, Jeremy humorously
captures the baffling essence of adolescence perfectly. Whether
he's trying to navigate the tumultuous waters of teenage
relationships, enduring lame jokes by his dad, or hatching a
road-trip scheme with his long-time best friend, Hector, Jeremy's
plight leaves "Zits" readers young and old knowingly nodding their
heads in recognition that they've been there themselves.
Fitting in. Being different. Growing up. Staying a kid.A "Zits" is
a comic strip about the funniest, most painfully emotionally
charged, physically demanding, mentally challenging, and colorful
times of our livesa "adolescence. Those who are living it can
relate. And those who have been through it cannot remember the time
without smiling, or at least wincing at the arrogance and ignorance
we all mistook as maturity during those few eternal years.
"Zits: Sketchbook #1" is an inside look at life from the point of
view of Jeremy, a private 15-year-old who is desperately hacking
his way out of childhood and into maturity. He labors in the shadow
of Chad, his perfect older brother who is away at college. Jeremy
is a freshman in high school whose main pastimes are hanging out
with his best friend, Hector Garcia, forming a garage band, and
being amazed at his parents' spectacular ignorance about almost
everything. Impatient, self-absorbed, emotional, and bored silly,
Jeremy is the essence of adolescence. "Zits" resonates with its
fans because the strip contains so much truth and insight, wrapped
in an uproarious context that's all too familiar to everyone who's
been 15 or has parented a teenager.
