I agree with this (<a href="http://www.snapily.com/blog/comic-sans-why-all-the-hate/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.snapily.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;comic-sans-why-all-the-hate&#x2F;</a>) and specifically the comment by the creator of Comic Sans: “If you love it, you don’t know much about typography,” Mr. Connare says. But, he adds, “if you hate it, you really don’t know much about typography, either, and you should get another hobby.” This meme was become a bit tiresome imho.

Just a quick note to the authors:<p>To test every letter in the English Language Alphabet use <i>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog</i>, and not <i>The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog</i>.<p>Otherwise you miss the <i>s</i>.<p>EDIT: Some fun reading <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_pangrams" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;List_of_pangrams</a>

As a programmer, I really love Cosmic Sans Neue Mono (which I don&#x27;t think is related to this typeface) -- now renamed to Fastasque Sans Mono:<p><a href="https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;belluzj&#x2F;fantasque-sans</a><p>You either hate it or love it, and I find it gorgeous on Sublime Text.

&gt; &quot;Download Comic Neue, free for a limited time&quot;<p>What does that mean? There&#x27;s no real license information anywhere.

You know, there are, and <i>have been</i> many, many <i>good</i> comic fonts out there. Blambot sells them gives many others away for free. This is where <i>actual comic book creators</i> go for fonts.<p>Anytime I see someone insisting on using Comic Sans, I gently inform them that Comic Sans isn&#x27;t even a good comic font, and point them to Blambot, where they can get better ones.<p><a href="http://blambot.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;blambot.com</a>

Hi<p>You will notice some issues if you use Windows Chrome, which doesn&#x27;t render TTF well, particularly italics and obliques.<p>The fix for this is to include SVG font files. I excluded SVG as they&#x27;re &#x27;advertised&#x27; as only existing to support legacy iOS. Today I found out that&#x27;s not entirely the case.<p>As for licensing, I provide the files for free for now and state on the site &#x27;No attribution acquired&#x27;. I&#x27;m being vague because at this point I&#x27;m undecided whether to start selling it or not.<p>Thanks :D

I&#x27;ve always loved comic sans, it&#x27;s like a family Labrador that just wants to have fun.<p>When more discerning people around me criticise it, I send them off to read: <a href="http://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/im-comic-sans-asshole" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mcsweeneys.net&#x2F;articles&#x2F;im-comic-sans-asshole</a><p>Thanks for the refresh, OP. I can&#x27;t wait to see where I can sneak this in.

First thoughts: I like it, it will be interesting to see what the typography community has to say. Slightly off topic, but it&#x27;s funny how Comic Sans, a font, has become so widely hated and mocked even among non-tech savvy people. There seems to be a tipping point where something becomes <i>cool</i> to hate. It&#x27;s absolutely impossible nowadays to use Comic Sans, even if it&#x27;s completely appropriate for the situation, without being mocked by people who have never used anything else but Times New Roman.

<i>&quot;The squashed, wonky, and weird glyphs of Comic Sans have been beaten into shape while maintaining the honesty that made Comic Sans so popular.&quot;</i><p>It&#x27;s half as honest. It&#x27;s dilute Comic Sans. It&#x27;s the diet coke of casual.

The kerning is sloppy, see &quot;f ox&quot;.

Beautiful. Friendly. Human. More readable. You&#x27;ve redeemed one of the most hated fonts. You might want to fix up a few kerning issues and re-release but overall I love it. Feels friendly and personable.<p>If you can do the same with Papyrus you will be knighted.

This is headed in the right direction - but certain things still make the text look not quite right. The angle on some of the vertical lines is still off, giving an unsettling effect, and the curve on &#x27;C&#x2F;c&#x27; need to be smoothed out a bit. Now the next step is to write a worm that replaces comic sans with this on all machines.
zokier大约 11 年前
I think this is too regular&#x2F;rigid to be true replacement to Comic Sans.

&quot;The squashed, wonky, and weird glyphs of Comic Sans have been beaten into shape while maintaining the honesty that made Comic Sans so popular.&quot;<p>Doesn&#x27;t this directly make Comic Neue inferior to Comic Sans for people with dyslexia, one of the original fonts plus points.

Public domain license? Awesome! Typographers after my own heart. We need more people to be willing to release their work into the public domain. I&#x27;d love to see new open-source projects choose public domain over Apache- or BSD-style permissive licenses.

Comic Sans does serve one good purpose; it&#x27;s a dyslexia-friendly typeface. It&#x27;s nice that Comic Neue preserves some of the letter &quot;hints&quot; (ie. the &quot;b&quot; and &quot;d&quot; glyphs have slightly different bottom terminals).<p>Although if you&#x27;re trying to optimize specifically for dyslexia, you&#x27;d be better off with something like OpenDyslexic [1].<p>[1] - <a href="http://opendyslexic.org/about/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;opendyslexic.org&#x2F;about&#x2F;</a>

Proprietary font? No, thanks.

It&#x27;s bikeshedding since I know nothing about design, but I feel like the name is a bad fit. Comic Sans looks more like a comic speech-bubble script than Comic Neue. Comic Neue looks like a better hand-printed font, but it would look worse in a speech bubble.

The oblique versions don&#x27;t work on Windows(7). The letter shapes are severely deformed and the sizes are all over the place.<p>Otherwise I think it could be a usable font (if not for the prevailing opinion about comic sans).

I really like it, although the kerning definitely needs some fine tuning, as others have already mentioned. I have a hard time seeing it catching on though, but I hope I&#x27;m wrong! Good job!
MCarusi大约 11 年前
I&#x27;ve never had a reason to use Comic Sans in any particular project, but the way people talk about it you&#x27;d think it was a mass murderer. It&#x27;s just a typefont, guys.
aaronetz大约 11 年前
Slightly off-topic, but can someone recommend a good book about typography? I mean more about the history of typography, less about how to design new fonts.

What is &quot;Comic Neue&quot; supposed to mean?<p>It&#x27;s &quot;Neue Helvetica&quot;, not &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;. It&#x27;s only called &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot; in lists for the sake of alphabetical sorting.<p>German &quot;Neue&quot; always stands before the noun. &quot;New Helvetica&quot; -&gt; &quot;Neue Helvetica&quot;. The generic form is &quot;Neu&quot;, so &quot;Helvetica New&quot; -&gt; &quot;Helvetica Neu&quot;.

The metrics on this font are a bit weird. E.g. as the type gets bolder it seems to tighten up vertically.
