What font do you use for your comic and why?

I typically use Fixedsys in an Undertale comic unless my character uses a special font, like Sans or Papyrus. And boy, there are going to be quite a few cases of that.
Here is the entire list of fonts I will use and how I will use them (all set at Paint size 24):

Read the comic PLEASE

I used to hand-letter everything because I'm stubborn and (clearly) masochistic. I eventually had to concede that it was a huge time sink for not a lot of payoff, so I'm using my own handwriting as a font now.

It helps because if I have to hand-letter effects or emphasized words, they don't look out of place.

I, for the most part, use my custom-made font in my comics and illustrations since it evokes a more distinctive and authentic identity to my material. Plus, it perfectly fits my simplistic, cartoony-looking art style.

Adding another character, and thus, another font, to the roster. Meet Delaney.

Delaney is going to be as different as the Fresh Friends AU can handle. I can't wait to introduce her in Chapter Five. You guys are going to LOVE LOVE LOVE her. In a good way, I mean!

I hope to make her a really distinctive character. No spoilers, but if you really want to see her, please subscribe to A Fresh Friend. If I get a lot of positive feedback about her, you'll see lots of Delaney. Please do DM me what you think she'll look like! OOH, that could be a fun contest...

I made my own, because I didn't want to spend eternity looking for license free and good looking one. And since there are things like effects you need more fonts, so it would take even more time. Also, if you have your own font, you can be sure it's license free and you don't have to worry about any copyright bulshit.

Andie uses Komika Display Caps. Gives us a great notebook look. Looks slightly crooked.

@AlydaB @Kaydreamer Also yooooooooo. Komika pals.

My main dialogue font for my webcomic is Meanwhile from Comicraft...while I use the Uncial version of it for when the gods talk:
