Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Adolescence is a time of painful growth and unpredictable change, when kids come packaged in a jumble of baggy jeans, rolling eyeballs, and grunting communication. Cartoonists Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman have captured the humor of that challenging time with Zits, in which they chronicle the life and times of the typically exasperating yet ever lovable Jeremy Duncan. In this first Zits treasury, faithful fans of Jeremy's world will get a glimpse behind the scenes with never-before-seen sketches and the stories behind the strips. Sunday cartoons appear in full-color, highlighting the strip's acclaimed drawing style. Even though the teenage terrain is rocky, Zits is warm and sympathetic. "The highest compliment we hear from readers is, 'You must have a camera hidden in our house!'" says Borgman.

About the Author

Zits comes from two veterans who have proven they know what's funny: Cincinnati Enquirer editorial cartoonist Jim Borgman is a 1991 Pulitzer Prize winner, and Jerry Scott also keeps families laughing as cocreator of the award-winning Baby Blues strip. Borgman lives in Cincinnati; Scott resides in Malibu. Zits appears in more than 800 newspapers around the globe.

2.0 out of 5 stars TO THE ZITS FOLLOWER THIS BOOK WILL BE A DISAPPOINTMENT, April 14, 2000
By A Customer
This books contains NO NEW CARTOONS, and the Zits follower could feel cheated, but to NEW Zits FAN, it's a GREAT BUY, a two in one special. So, to the followers - if you have previous books don't purchase this book, unless your're buying it for a friend

4.0 out of 5 stars Zits is the best, October 6, 2005
By Dorothy E. (Colorado) - See all my reviews
This is a fun Treasury - if you don't have the previous volumes. Except for some extra non-essential art work, there are no new panels. If you don't have the other volumes and want a book with a nice selection, good choice - otherwise, don't waste your money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Comic Strip, October 4, 2001
By Mark Baker (Santa Clarita, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Humongous Zits is a compilation of the first two books of this comic strip. It starts out a little slow while the main characters are being introduced, but it soon catches its stride.

Jeremy Duncan is a typical teenager just trying to live his life. His parents are on his back, he's got homework to avoid, his garage band isn't getting recording contracts, and he's awkward around the girl of his dreams. Needless to say, his life is anything but boring.

The strip is written from Jeremy's point of view, which leads to some great sight gags as we see a situation through his eyes. The characters are slightly cartoonish but real enough for many years of great strips, and I look forward to enjoying it for years to come.
