This was a collection of most of the Zot stories published. The first several have to do with Zot fighting various criminals from his world. The second happen after Zot is stuck in or world and really are the stories of Jenny and her friends and their regular lives. They deal with regular teenage problems like popularity and homophobia. I got this pretty cheap at the Half Price Bookstore and it was definitely worth it.

Book 55: Zot by Scott McCloud
Good read. I've always heard of Scott McCloud, but the only thing I think I've ever read by him was the Google Chrome strip that they made when it was released. Zot is a hero from a different dimension than ours. His earth is perpetually stuck in 1964(?), but it's also futuristic. Everything there is just optimal and happy. He crosses over to our dimension and dates a girl named Jenny. But our world is dark and sad compared to his. The thing abut Zot is, he doesn't care. He wants to only see the good things about this world. Jenny wants to just leave, but Zot continues to tell her that this is her world and she should stay.
