Fonts that emulate the lettering that fills the balloons of comic books and comic strips. Most are by the comic lettering masters at Comicraft who skillfully digitize the pens of John 'JG' Roshell, Richard Starkings, J. Scott Campbell, and Dave Gibbons.

The fonts at the top of the page include upper- and lowercase characters. Those further down are uppercase only, but many of them offer alternate glyphs for every character to simulate the natural variation of hand lettering.

Some of these families also include italics and heavier weights. Click any font sample to see all the variants.
