New Adventures of Queen Victoria by Pab Sungenis for March 31, 2014

So, Her Majesty is off her meds?

That’s nothing; I’m fluent in Franklin Gothic Book.

@Sherlock Watson I’m a simple man with simple tastes. I am perfectly fine with Arial.

I saw the story about Garamond using less ink and saving the government millions. That was only last week. Kudos to the strip being so au current.

Futura Book or Helvetica

No, but I do know that last month I could have bought a brand new printer with wireless capability for less that ink refills for my current printer which works perfectly well for what I print these days

Pab is not first or only one to use fonts creatively.

Lettering in comics is important, and too often overlooked or an afterthought. Neat, legible lettering can make the difference between work that looks like that of a novice or a pro. Where the words are placed on the page is critical—absolutely critical—to how the reader’s eye is guided through the action. It can control pace and convey urgency, confusion, anger, and other moods and emotions.

It can also reveal something about a character. Some of the smartest lettering in comics was done for Walt Kelly’s “Pogo,” where a deacon spoke in ornate Gothic script and a showman pattered in circus-poster bluster. A more subtle example is Marvel Comics’ character The Vision, an android who often spoke in rectangular yellow word balloons to suggest an eerie mechanical voice different from everyone else’s.

Garamond: it’s all the rage.

haha!

I am a Times New Roman girl, always will be, though I can calibri for a while until I can change it.
