- 'Zits' debuted in July, 1997 in more than 200 newspapers - one of the strongest strip introductions in years. It went on to win the Best Comic Strip award from the National Cartoonist Society two years in a row, and to appear in more than 1100 newspapers. Variety has reported that scribe Adam "Tex" Davis (Big Fat Liar) has signed on to adapt 'Zits, ' into a Universal Pictures feature film.- Coming-of-age stories that draw on the author's family history, are one of the most frequent subjects, for major Hispanic-American writers; these include: Oscar Zeta Acosta (Autobiography of a Brown Buffalo), Luis Rodriguez (Always Running: La Vida Loca, Gang Days in L.A.), Sandra Cisneros (The House on Mango Street), Richard Rodriguez (Hunger of Memory), Rudolfo Anaya (Bless Me Ultima), Arturo Islas (The Rain God) and Gary Soto (Living up the Street). The true-to-life scenarios of Zits, whose anecdotes are derived from the author's own personal experiences raising children, will likely strike a chord with Hispanic,readers.
