The history of comic book fonts and typefaces

This was a really fantastic video from Vox about the easily identifiable comic book font and its many variations. I didn't know this until watching the video, but apparently there's a fairly active and large community of comic book font creators making fonts for modern screens that don't necessarily have to commit to the old standards of pen on paper.

One of those companies is Comicraft which sells a number of great comic book fonts over at Comic Book Fonts. I want them all.
