There's something very pleasing about the monospacing with this particular font.
Font people-- any idea why I would enjoy the aesthetics of the monospaced version so much more than the old variable-width version?
- scrozier 6y agoI totally agree with you. I’m no fan of Comic Sans, but monospaced it’s really quite nice. I think Comic Shanns does things like set all the characters on the baseline, eliminate goofy tilting, etc. The letter shapes themselves are nice.

I'm no font expert, but my understanding is that the base of Comic Sans is fine, it's just that there are so many small "errors" [0] that make it a pain to look at. [0] Many of which had perfectly valid reasons for the time.
