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.

An indispensible and entertaining manual for parents on the verge
of having a teenager, by Americaa (TM)s favorite cartoon team.
In their award-winning comic strip "Zits," artist Jim Borgman and
writer Jerry Scott have succeeded in creating one of the most
poignant, realistic, and funny portrayals of a teenager found in
any medium today. Parents themselves, Borgman and Scott have
learned a thing or two along the way in their creative and family
lives. The result is "A Zits Guide to Living with Your Teenager."
A combination of select "Zits" comic strips depicting the
relationship between teenager Jeremy Duncan and his parents, Walt
and Connie, and witty, knowing, and dead-on commentary from Borgman
and Scott, "A Zits Guide to Living with Your Teenager" is an
indispensible and entertaining manual for parents on the verge of
having a teenager.
"Zits" has twice been honored with the award for Best Newspaper
Comic Strip by the National Cartoonists Society and received the
"Max and Moritz" award for Best International Comic Strip in 2000.
From hormones to how-come-Ia (TM)m-not-like-everyone-else questions
and insecurities, Borgman and Scott continue to successfully tell
teenage horror stories since the strips debut in newspapers in
1997. Readers and fans can find Zits in 1,600 newspapers worldwide,
an achievement only 18 comic strips have ever earned.
Lauded by the "Los Angeles Times" "as one of the freshest and most
imaginative comic strips" and designated as Best Newspaper Comic
Strip twice by the National Cartoonists Society, Jerry Scott and
Jim Borgman's "Zits" chronicles many of the scenes that play out
under the rooftops of more than 80.5 million homes across the
country.
Artfully exploring insecurities, societal pressures, and just plain
teenage goofiness, Scott and Borgman contrast the experiences of
adolescence and parenthood. Sixteen-year-old Jeremy Duncan is
learning to navigate residential byways and high school hallways
while the parentals, a.k.a. Connie and Walt Duncan, try to keep
pace and find a little peace.
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.
