While designing your own comic book, there are plenty of things you should consider. Naturally, the plotline, characters, style, and graphics may be the main elements which often leaves the font out and it feels like it is not as important as it really is. But fonts inside a comic book are just as important as every other element! If you are looking for inspiration to add to your own work, these are some of the best fonts to use for comic designs.
