Deserves to die by stereotypical crime?
Comic Sans is a casual script typeface designed by Vincent Connare and released in 1994 by the Microsoft Corporation. It is classified as a casual, non-connecting script, and was designed to imitate comic book lettering, for casual use in informal documents. The typeface has been supplied with Microsoft Windows since the introduction of Windows 95, initially as a supplemental font in the Windows Plus Pack. It has since become one of the most widely-used Windows system fonts.

Comic Sans has become the subject of a campaign by some designers to limit or eliminate its use, on the grounds that (as typographic purists claim) it is poorly designed and that its inclusion in the Microsoft system fonts package lends itself to inappropriate use—for example, as a text face in documents or at large sizes in signage. Some typeface designers say that the typeface is poorly drawn, virtually equal weight being given to the downstrokes and horizontals, and little thought given to the kerning between character pairs, eliminating any of the informal characteristics of true hand-drawn lettering.
In his defense, Connare claims that it was not originally designed as a general typeface, but as a solution to the problem of finding lettering suitable for the packaging of children's software.

Gets more votes or even neglection..




I always wonder why people have never better things to do than offend and criticize work without constructive results. If you don't like it, just leave it there. Grow up folks! It's really just the same on how you are making use of something.

I saw many tasteless visual of helvetica, impact, gill sans, meta, din, etc. and remember one thing, those fonts including comic sans are just ingredients... the rest depends on the chef.. and the chef = is you, designer.
