Bad hair days, pop quizzes, tumultuous relationships—it's not always fun being a teenager (or living with one). But in Luann 4: Seriously... (Andrews McMeel Publishing, $12.99), the latest collection of Greg Evans' popular comic strip, Luann, the everyday trials and tribulations of teenagers—and those who have to deal with them—are explored with humor and honesty.
Luann 4: Seriously... features all of the realistic, enjoyable characters that readers of Evans' strip love: Luann, a typical teenager just trying to survive the treacherous trail through high school; her older brother Brad, who hides a kind heart under a messy and often annoying exterior; and her best friends Bernice and Delta, who are there for Luann through everything, even when she's obsessing over the boy of her dreams, Aaron Hill. What sets Luann apart from other comic strips is the perfect combination of humor and reality; although Evans includes plenty of witty one-liners, he also deftly weaves ongoing storylines into each strip, allowing readers to develop a strong relationship with the characters.
Luann is featured in 400 newspapers worldwide, and LuannsRoom.com receives 80,000 hits a day. Luann consistently ranks in the top five in newspaper surveys and is often number one with female readers. Whether you are one of the thousands of devoted fans or just catching on, the heart and wit of Greg Evans' Luann 4: Seriously... will capture your imagination and leave you wanting more.
Born, raised, and educated in the Los Angeles area, Evans discovered at an early age that he wanted to be a syndicated cartoonist. He worked as a high school art teacher as well as a graphic artist and a promotion manager for a television station while pursuing his dream of writing a comic strip. After several failed attempts, he was inspired by the antics of his then nine-year-old daughter, and Luann was born. Evans lives with his wife in Southern California.
