Customer Reviews

Totally relevant to everyone

If you're a parent, this book is for you. This book is going to help you find out what your teenager is thinking, and how they think. If you're a teenager, this jokes in the strips strike so close to home it's impossible not to laugh. For example, having high school fantasy about girls, or guys, or teachers! I think every teenager and parents can relate to Zits. It's almost like a documentary, told in panels, to the point of déjà vu. I also love the art drawn by Jim Borgman as well. I've all series of Zits treasuries, and will buy if there are more in the future. This volume contains comics from Zits Unzipped and Busted!

The Humorous Trials of Jeremy Continue

Zits is fast becoming a modern classic comic strip, and with good reason. It is consistently funny. The authors, Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman, use every humor tool available to them to get their point across. And, no matter whether it's exaggeration, sarcasm, understatement, or a hilarious sight gag, this book is sure to entertain.The collection starts with the "director's cut" of "Good Night Dude." The original strip appears later in the collection, but here we get a full spoof of the classic picture book.From there, we launch into the daily strip. This book contains strips from sketchbooks #5 and 6, "Unzipped" and "Busted." As an added bonus, the Sunday comics are in color. We get about a year and a half of strips all in one place. Not only do we get the latest on Jeremy and Sara's rocky relationship, but we get to see Jeremy and Hector start their own summer business for no fun and little profit. Pierce also joins the band this time around, with the most amazing intro to the most amazing drum solo you've ever heard. Along the way, gentle fun is poked at teens, parents, peers, and school equally.Actually, the peers seem to have come into their own this go around. I don't remember enjoying Jeremy's friends from school so much. And Hector's put downs remind me of Hobbes from "Calvin and Hobbes." I especially loved his stuff from the week about the internet intelligence quiz.Any teen or anyone living with a teen will love this strip. If you aren't careful, you might even starting laughing at yourself a little more.
