Richard Starkings and John “JG” Roshell are the creators of some of the world’s greatest comic book fonts. Their work appears in most of the best-selling Marvel Comics on the market today, including Uncanny X-Men, Fantastic Four, and The Amazing Spider-Man. Starkings’ company, Comicraft, is billed as a “purveyor of unique design and fine lettering.” Three of their classic comic fonts are now available from Monotype Imaging.
