Forget Comic Sans MS, I personally enjoy Zebrawood Regular.
Haha! That is phat! I feel like I’m at the circus! Or maybe a Mark Twain riverboat somewhere in Mississippi. Nice one…
Wanna be an even bigger dork? Read The Cheese Monkeys by Chip Kidd. Wonderful graphic designer fiction :D
Looks interesting to say the least. Thanks Jason…I think :)
It’s actually very good. The book itself even becomes a design piece, starting out set in one font, then changing halfway through (after our protagonist learns a bit). The tone was beautiful and set me right back at school.
That’s awesome!
I used to work at a place where Hobo was the new Comic Sans. <shudder
Kidd didn’t just go to town on the font set in the book, the jacket cover is incredible to boot! So much going on with it, utterly amazing.
good one! Very comic in that sense :)
very good :)
