Comic Sans was later released with Microsoft Plus! for Windows 95 and then subsequently added as a standard system font, where its use quickly spread. But as these things go, Comic Sans wasn’t ready to ship when Microsoft launched Bob, so Rover just spoke in good old Times New Roman. One of Bob’s defining features was Rover, an animated, cartoon dog that guided Bob users through the many different features of their computers, sort of like Clippy does for Microsoft Office products.ĭesigner Vincent Connare thought Rover’s speech bubbles needed a typeface with comic context, so he created Comic Sans as a solution.

The rest is, well, history.For example, Papyrus took some negative hits when it showed up in the subtitles of James Cameron’s Avatar, Trajan is frequently maligned for having the misfortune to be used in every other movie poster, and no one thinks using Brush Script as a handwriting substitute is cool, not even ironically.ĭespite the ire heaped upon other poor fonts, none seems to be more universally reviled than Comic Sans.Ĭomic Sans was originally designed to be used in Microsoft Bob, a simple UI designed for people new to Windows, way back in 1995. He said that was how Comic Sans became a part of the Microsoft Windows system fonts. Then he started to look at two comic books in his office, from where he patterned and tweaked the Comic Sans.

There was a need for these fun fonts at Microsoft at the time,' he explained. 'I had been working with the Creative Writer team in the Consumer division at the same time supplying them with fonts for Kids software, things like fonts looking like Pizza, monsters and ones with snow. 'The designers and engineers at Microsoft spent lots of time drawing and coding the interface for MS Bob with comic characters but didn't bother to use a cartoon or comic font,' he said, noting how he thought that was a mistake.

It was a comic software package that had a dog called Rover at the beginning and he had a balloon with messages using Times New Roman,' Connare narrated. 'Comic Sans was designed because when I was working at Microsoft I received a beta version of Microsoft Bob.

He said the inspiration only came when he saw the font Times New Roman used in an inappropriate way. Also, it wasn't supposedly included in other applications but only to those designed for children. Comic Sans was the typeface he used to communicate the message. Surprisingly, there was no intention of making Comic Sans a typeface but rather a solution to a technical problem in the interface of a computer program, Connare said. With all the bashing and bullying the Comic Sans have received online since its inception in the 90s, have people ever really wondered what was behind the creation of the typeface?

If I give it a fully realised set of glyphs and fine tune it, I may offer that for sale,' Rozynski said.

What's online now for download will be free forever. 'I put so much work into it (it was a three year side-project) that one part of me wants to charge a fee for it, while the other, realistic part of me concedes it will never be ubiquitous if it comes with a price tag.

The makeover font can be downloaded for free, but Rozynski said people have been asking for a full written disclaimer from him before they touch it and he hasn't decided on that yet. The website said the new font is perfect for marking up comments, for passive aggressive office memos, or simply as a display face. As the name suggests, Comic Neue Angular, however, have angular terminals instead of the round ones.

The two variants have regular, light, bold weights, along with oblique equivalents. The makeover font has two variants: Comic Neue and Comic Neue Angular. 'The squashed, wonky, and weird glyphs of Comic Sans have been beaten into shape while maintaining the honesty that made Comic Sans so popular.' 'Comic Neue aspires to be the casual script choice for everyone including the typographically savvy,' stated in the new font's official website. He said he was just like any other graphic designer who dreams of creating a typeface, reason why he created the Comic Neue. Regardless of these negative feedbacks, he wondered if Comic Sans could still be saved or could have a makeover. Also, filmmaker Errol Morris has conducted an informal study on the infamous font, which suggested that when information is presented in Comic Sans, people are less likely to believe it. Recall that there is even an online community, Ban Comic Sans, created to push for the font's abolishment. Rozynski, an Australian digital designer based in Japan, remembered witnessing the Comic Sans font being bashed online a few years ago.
