A “grommet” is a commonly used term for a young up-and-coming skater or surfer. Since the ’60s, it’s been used to describe the next generation of kids who, with youthful exuberance, love the sport but want to put their spin on it.Collects GROMMETS#1-7Select praise forGROMMETS:“GROMMETScaptures the raw feeling of being an outcast kid in the 1980s, and why skateboarding became such a sacred salvation to a lucky few.

Definitely a breezy, summer read.” —**Graphic Policy**“A heartwarming and visually wonderful look into a tiny slice of '80s nostalgia that will ring true for anyone who's experienced what it's like to find friendship in otherwise hostile environments.” —**Major Spoilers** Shipping We ship every package assuming the recipient is a collector, we ship in a specialy designed shipping box for comics and books.
