Comic Mono
A legible monospace font... the very typeface you’ve been trained to recognize since childhood. This font is a fork of Shannon Miwa’s Comic Shanns (version 1).

Differences from Comic Shanns
- All glyphs have been adjusted to have exactly the same width (using code based on monospacifier).
- The glyph metrics have been adjusted to make it display better alongside system font, based on Cousine’s metrics.
- The name is changed to
Comic Mono
. - A bold version of the font is generated using FontForge’s Embolden operation.
I have no font creation skills; I’m just a software developer. This font family is created by patching the original font, Comic Shanns (v1), using a Python script, generate.py
.
