Comicraft’s New Year’s Day Sale

If you want to build out your comics-font library, be sure to mark this on your calendar. Comicraft traditionally holds a sale on Jan 1 every year in which price of each of their fonts is based on the year. This New Year’s Day every ComiCraft font will be $20.23 apiece.

That’s a huge savings on their high-quality lettering fonts. WildWords (which I use) is $129 the rest of the year. WildWords upper/lower is usually $69. ComicCrazy is originally $395. And Yadda Yadda Yadda is typically $129. If you’re planning to purchase fonts for lettering or sound effects — or display fonts for logos and titles — you’ll want to mark this date on your calendar and load up.

Here are some must-grab fonts top add to your collection…

ComicCrazy

Fantastic all-purpose dialogue font. Check it out here. (Usually $395)

Wild Words

Another versatile dialogue font. Check it out here. (Usually $139)

Ratatatat

Sound effect font that will become your go-to. Check it out here. (Usually $29)

Zoinks

This display font is perfect for sound effects and strong headline or promo presentations. Check it out here. (Usually $39.)

Biff Bam Boom

Another sound-effect font you’ll use constantly. Check it out here. (Usually $29)

Onomatopedia

I’ll admit — I bought this on a whim. Then I found myself using it consistently throughout my comics-making. Check it out here. (Usually $29)

…and here’s one I’m adding this January 1st…

If This Be Doomsday

This looks like a headline/display font that I’ll end up using often. Check it out here. (Usually $29)

A note for Clip Studio Paint users

Comicraft fonts offer crossbar-I technology — which automatically substitutes a serif-I whenever the personal pronoun is used. (For more information about the crossbar-I rule, click here.) However, as I warned Webcomics.com subscribers at the beginning of 2020, this relies on OpenType font features — which Clip Studio Paint (as of now) does not support.
