Nope.

I don't understand why people hate Comic Sans exactly, but I don't see how this font is any better.

I like Comic Sans. I don't use it for formal stuff, but it was perfect for chatting--easy to read but not formal.

Even to the untrained eye, the kerning pairs are fucked (see "quick brown fox" font specimens). I'm guessing he manually kerned his body text. But it is his "first typographical project," so live and learn. Not any worse than most free typefaces.

Comic Neue looks ok, but it's missing the swagger:

I have no beef with Comic Sans. Never understood all the hate.

Comic Neue Regular is just another poorly designed type face in the very long line of shitty sans serif fonts. Why is it that Americans dislike the very practical use of crossed z’s and sevens? Is it too Euro or too military?

Did V and W get married?

I much prefer Comic Serif

This is better than Comic Sans, but I will still never use it. There are so many better hand-written-looking fonts in the world. But I'm coming from a design standpoint.

@7, no one, not even those oh-so-classy Euros or military men, uses crossed 7s and Zs in typography. Handwriting, fine, if you must.

Comic Sans is a handful of shit. This here might be an ounce less shit, but it's still a handful of shit. Looks like the lettering on the chalkboard in grade school, minus the curl at the bottom of t. People who use Comic Sans on anything other than diaper packaging should be ground into livestock feed.

But yeah, people use Comic Sans because it's in Word. Same reason they use Algerian for all sorts of things -- it's alphabetically the first display font (and the fucking WORST).

@everyone

I can't fathom a more entry-level form of snobbery with as much bang for your internet-buck as font design. Really, what else is there? Here, you got your jargon (serif, ligature, etc.), your personal asthetics ('fairly attractive'), and digitalized infinite malleability. All with no entry fee cause the stuff is ubiquitous. That is real fertile ground for publicly jacking yourself off.

Spoken like a person who would use Papyrus for their business logo.

Didn't Calibri take over for Comic Sans a little while ago?
