Zbeng!
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zbeng! is an Israeli comic series which is written and drawn by Uri Fink. This series depicts the fun and wacky adventures of a group of teenagers and their lives and loves.
Zbeng! which began to publish in the Israeli teen magazine "Ma'Ariv Lanoar" on the 17th of August 1987, won unprecedented success. Very quickly the stories were expanded from one page to a number of pages, and became the most popular part of the magazine.
"Zbeng!" Describes the daily quirky adventures of a gang of "typical" highschoolers:
- Gal, the average teenager who is the star of the series
- his red headed friend Jinji, the ugly, insane, sex maniac that is hated by every woman he meets, who actually became the most popular character in the series
- Gal's feminist-left wing-vegetarian girlfriend Sigal
- Gal's brother Yaron, a book worm, who became a computer expert
- Maya, the beautiful yet manipulative class queen
- Herzel, the ultimate Ars
- Gili Magili, horror movie enthusiast
- Anoga Zaafani, their monstrous teacher and the ultimate nightmare for every student.
The success of the series brought many best selling book collections, merchandise, its own comics magazine and it was even adapted into a live action TV series for the Israeli television in 1998.
