Webdings was designed in 1997 as a collaborative
work between Microsoft's Vincent Connare and top Monotype
designers Sue Lightfoot, Ian Patterson and Geraldine Wade.
The images are intended for web designers who wish to include
live fonts as a fast way of rendering graphics. They are
also extremely useful for graphic artists and comic book
artists as they include a number of useful shapes, and designs.

Trebuchet, designed by Vincent Connare in 1996,
is a humanist sans serif designed for easy screen readability.
Trebuchet takes its inspiration from the sans serifs of
the 1930s which had large x heights and round features intended
to promote readability on signs.

The mildly pleasant result is a font I call simply
"Balloon Lettering," in two faces, Normal and Stressed.
It is loosely based on Richard Starkings' font "ComicCrazy,"
with some ideas stolen from two of his other fonts, "AstroCity"
and "WildWords."

Yikes! is probably best suited to sound effects
and some whimsical special effects. It's modeled after ComiCraft's
"Zoinks!," but has several additions and modifications of
my own, to make it more than just a one-trick pony.

Gnat Font, a first attempt at building a custom
font using Fontographer. It's clunky, held together with
duct tape and crazy glue but it's a lot nicer than any thing
else out there (at least I think so...but I also made it)
and it's 100% FREE!!! Free the world baby!!

This is the Photoshop palette I created based on
the color guide in the Marvel Try-Out book second edition.
I tried my best to match all the CMYK values Marvel apparently
uses for it's coloring process. After going over the values
represented however, this is at best, a good place to start,
but you shouldn't end here. Marvel uses CMYK % increments
as small as 5% - 10%. This palette represents a subset of
these values.
