About me:

Ban comic sans is featured in the new book, PEEL The Art of the Sticker from Mark Batty Publisher.

PEEL The Art of the Sticker
Click the cover.

In 1995 Microsoft released the font Comic Sans originally designed for comic book style talk bubbles containing informational help text. Since that time the typeface has been used in countless contexts from restaurant signage to college exams to medical information. These widespread abuses of printed type threaten to erode the very foundations upon which centuries of typographic history are built.

While we recognize the font may be appropriate in a few specific instances, our position is that the only effective means of ending this epidemic of abuse is to completely ban Comic Sans.

Do you actually like the rainbow gradient fill?

I couldn't believe that, I sort of took it as irony.

I just moved to Philadelphia, where there is a convenience store chain called Wawa. I was horrified to see that the font on their coffee cups and java jackets in indeed comic sans. I feel bad that something so great as coffee must live in that cup, desecrated by comic sans.

I will never buy coffee there and neither should anyone...

Thank you. You're making a difference in the world... trying to save our creative souls from having to view this horribly out-dated and over-used font. Words cannot describe my gratitude for your efforts.
