What Was That All About?: 20 Years of Strips and Stories (Zits) is a comic collection and creator retrospective by Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman, centered on the long-running Zits newspaper strip. Built around two decades of selected daily and Sunday strips, the book celebrates the awkward humor of teenager Jeremy Duncan, his parents, and the everyday tensions of family life. It is not only a best-of anthology but also a behind-the-scenes account of how the strip was developed, shaped, and sustained over time. The volume includes commentary on the creators meeting in Sedona, choosing the title, drawing Sunday pages, and dealing with newspaper restrictions and censored material. As a result, the book serves both as a readable humor collection and as a document of comic-strip craft. Its purpose is to entertain established fans while also showing how a modern newspaper comic is built, edited, and preserved across decades.
