Comic Sans is Dave Gibbons’ bastard child

This entry was posted in Comics Dave Gibbons fonts Watchmen on August 13, 2009 by Ian Pattinson

I didn’t know that Comic Sans was based (badly) upon Dave Gibbons’ hand lettering. He’s not impressed by it, as he tells the Guardian, and is happier with later versions of his hand lettering font.
