I've got a plot down, I'm like... I have two panels of the first page drawn... yeah, don't expect it to be done anytime soon. Can't get to a scanner for a good week, and even if I could I'd probably want more time. No, I'm not going to finish the whole thing then release, and I'm also not going to put things up page by page. Assuming I actually follow through, I'll release it in chunks. No, I'm not coloring it. I might ask if anyone wants to later, but I'm not going to say "You! You're important! Color this for me!" to some guy who wants to do it when I'm not even sure if I'll draw this all out.

ANYWAY

HERE IS MY QUESTION

What font should I put in word bubbles?

I'm being serious, at first I was like "comic sans duh", but then I thought about it and decided it looks... cheesy.

Sorry for stealing precious space with this post, but really, give me something.

Try Menlo.

Have a list

Try one of these:
Acme Secret Agent
Anime Ace
Crime Fighter
Digital Strip
Kid Cobalt
Letter O Matic
Manga Temple
SF Arch Rival
SF Toon Time
SF Wonder Comic
Universal Fruitcake
Web Letterer

They're all free font downloads, easy to read, etc., and most importantly, not Comic Sans. (Because Comic Sans is awful)

*Hits self in face*Why

*Hits self in face*

Why haven't I tried the games text bubble font? Still, I don't want to use the games actual bubbles. I need something that doesn't look neater than my sketches...

I'll look at those suggestions though.

Edit;
Caught between Menlo and Anime ace. I'll figure it out though.

IMO, Tekton/Pro.

Nice font for a comic.
