''[[Zits]]'' is a comic strip written by Jerry Scott (creator of ''[[Baby Blues]]'' and one-time cartoonist for ''Nancy'') and illustrated by Jim Borgman about the life of 15-year-old high school freshman Jeremy Duncan.
Jeremy lives with his parents, Walt and Connie, who both possess boring jobs and spectacular ignorance (according to Jeremy, anyway). He dreams of 'making it big' as a rock musician, but feels like he lives in the shadow of his highly successful college brother Chad.
Line 11:
As a comic strip, ''Zits'' works incredibly well -- teenagers will easily recognize their parents' constant presence in Walt and Connie, while adults will both remember their own teenage years and recognize their own children in Jeremy's laid-back nature.

* [[Aborted Arc]]: Oh no, Jeremy's parents saw his Facebook page, and aren't happy with the content! What's going to happen? ... Nothing, apparently.
* [[Accidental Unfortunate Gesture]]: After Jeremy accidentally cut his middle finger, he was told to elevate it. The nurse quickly changes her mind after she overhears a few "Same to ''you'', Duncan!" comments in the school halls.
