If you haven’t noticed by now (hope it was nice and dry under that rock), I am a lover of comic books and webcomics a like. I don’t think there’s ever been a day when I haven’t spent a least a few moments laughing because of something I’ve read online or off. I love them. In comics, you tend to see some pretty nifty and out there typography, and with the popularity of web comics growing, a lot of people have started creating some really great fonts for artists to use in their strips. Here’s a great round up of some of my favorite free Comic Fonts.
Ten Free Comic-Inspired Fonts
01. 2Peas Goofball from UrbanFonts
02. Agent Orange from 1001 Free Fonts
03. Calvin and Hobbes from UrbanFonts
05. Chronicles of a Hero from BlamBot
06. Creative Block from BlamBot
10. Marker Felt from Font Zone
I hope you enjoy these awesome fonts as much as I do. For my own comic, The Family Menagerie, I use Agent Orange and Creative Block for the header and the titles. For the dialogue, I use the another font in the 2Peas series – I recommend you go check out all of their fonts; they’re great. For those interested, the lines of the font examples are words from Neil Gaiman’s poem “Instructions.” One of my favorites. Happy Monday all!
Ooh, Marker Felt I quite like, as is Creative Block. I’ll have to download them right now. Thanks – I never would have found them otherwise!
