I've created a monster!
Not so many questions!
Go right ahead and do it
Never as good as the first time.
Her majesty's a pretty nice girl.
Never understood a thing.
Never an easy way.
Treat you like a child.
This is a handwritten font by myself. It is really funny to see your own handwriting on the screen :-).
Gleaned from Mort Walker's Lexicon of Comicana and ABC Etcetera: The Life & Times of the Roman Alphabet by A. & N. Humez, I've included 5 useful symbols. From left to right: the "squean" (which might float around a drunken character's head),the "grawlix" (a substitute for swearing), the "jarn" (ditto),a "phosphene" (for a character who's "seeing stars"), and the "quimp" (another swear.) Have @#$%* fun!
Inspired by a trip to Mexico City. The official signage of the Mexico City subway uses a peculiar adaptation of the classic font Eurostile, designed by Aldo Novarese. The capital E was most unusual. The overall feel was of a past vision of the future, with a distinctively Mexican touch. (The squared circle, or rounded square, is very common in both old and new Mexican design.) I began with a ripoff version of Eurostile (also known as Microgramma), adjusted it to the proper width and weight, then drew the observed characters as well as a few other variants of my own invention in the retro-future style. Using this font in all-caps mode presents the best approximation of the original signage. Includes caps, punctuation, numbers, and international characters.
