Collector Comic™ font family


Designed by  Patrick Griffin in 2006
Collector Comic is a carefully researched and crafted family of comic ballooning fonts. It employs two different sets of letters, one based on old school Silver Age (1956 - 1970) and Bronze Age (1971 - 1986) comic books in the uppercase positions, and one with a more temporary Modern Age (1986 and on) spin in the lowercase positions. The brilliant work of comic lettering masters Sam Rosen and Artie Simek was a great influence on Collector Comic. Although the emphasis was on making these fonts work in comic book and graphic novel balloons, they do indeed perform just as nicely in display. No loose points or jaggies here. Make these letters as large as you want and they will not let you down. Collector Comic comes in two weights and corresponding italics, and is available in all popular font formats. All fonts are complete sets and loaded with accented characters. This set of fonts contains a very expanded character set that includes full support for Central, Eastern and Western European languages, as well as Baltic, Turkish, Esperanto, Greek, Cyrillic and Vietnamese.

Features

Languages

Standard Ligatures

Tag: liga

Function: Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes. This feature covers the ligatures which the designer/manufacturer judges should be used in normal conditions. The glyph for ffl replaces the sequence of glyphs f f l.

Kerning

Tag: kern

Function: Adjusts amount of space between glyphs, generally to provide optically consistent spacing between glyphs. Although a well-designed typeface has consistent inter-glyph spacing overall, some glyph combinations require adjustment for improved legibility. Besides standard adjustment in the horizontal direction, this feature can supply size-dependent kerning data via device tables, "cross-stream" kerning in the Y text direction, and adjustment of glyph placement independent of the advance adjustment. Note that this feature may apply to runs of more than two glyphs, and would not be used in monospaced fonts. Also note that this feature does not apply to text set vertically. The o is shifted closer to the T in the combination "To."
