Don’t miss the Comicraft New Year’s Day Font Sale!

By John Freeman on January 1, 2014

Comicraft fonts are created by Comic Book Letterers for Comic Book Lettering. Every New Year, the US company created by British lettering supremo and Elephantmen creator Richard Starkings give their faithful customers – and even casual browsers who stumbled into our store because it’s throwing down outside – a one-day-only opportunity to rummage through Comicraft’s remainder bin and snap up Comicrazy for a mere twenty dollars and fourteen cents rather than $395.

Fonts on offer include lettering designed by both US and British creators including Brian Bolland, Dave Gibbons, David Lloyd, Sean Phliips, Brian Talbot and, of course, Richard Starkings himself.
