R.n.P 2017-05-15 05:00:44 UTC #1

Pls can I get some help, I'm looking for fonts to use for my comic's dialogue that will be equally visible in both pc and mobile view, so far I've tried two fonts now.
Tahoma, I've used it a lot longer
https://tapas.io/episode/663376
And Badaboom, I've used for just one episode so far
https://tapas.io/episode/694236
Pls can I get feedback on which is better on both pc n mobile and if neither are good enough, could I pls get some suggestions of fonts that can work on both devices
Thanks a bunch for helping me out

For my comic I use Ames. Its a pretty neat font and works well for comics. Its free and you can get it here.
I've also tried Action Man and Anime Ace but use what works well for you.

That second font is really hard to read on mobile. The first one is okay to read, but looks a bit dull/ doesn't fit your comic well.
I think your comic would work better with a "hand-writing" font. Something similar to the most popular manga font Anime Ace. But search for one that is bit less wonky, because Anime Ace is hard to read when you have more than 5 words in a sentence. :')
I suggest looking through Google fonts for some nice fonts, they have a lot of great fonts that are free to use 👍
Or look on dafont if you're feeling like getting ripped fonts, they do have more fonts that work well for comics 😂 And fonts are sorted on looks, so it may be easier to find your dream font 👉😎👉

Go to Blambot...they have free [dialogue] fonts for comics there.

Hmm okay, I'm a little bit caught off guard by the suggestion since I first got the complaint bout my font while using Tahoma, well I'll keep gathering feedback, thank you

Reading what you said at first I thought there was a way you could make your handwriting into a font of its own

Silerna 2017-05-15 20:21:20 UTC #11

I think it might be possible if you google it orso. But sometimes I just do it for extra effect and not for the normal text . I write ugly xD.

I've always hand written mine. Maybe I should use fonts....

Thanks, I took your advise n changed my handwriting into a font

I've downloaded fonts from Blambot. The font I use for the dialogue (as opposed to the fonts I use for some special effects) Is Digitalstrip Regular. It is better than Comic Sans

I hand write everything. Anyone else do that?

If you are looking for fonts for your comics then I have used vaporwave text for all such comics you looking for. There you can find many other types of fonts for you comics.

use text generator tool this is converted cool stylish text(fonts) and you can copy or paste any text on social media sites.

I recommend blambot.com and dafont.com. They have a number of free-to-download dialogue fonts that are a million times better than Comic Sans.

I use Blambot's Kid Kosmic for monologues.

ericsalinas149 2021-01-20 09:23:29 UTC #20

I like Digital Strip, Little Hands, and Marker Felt
